Today was so exciting! It was jam packed and all about me!! This morning I slept in until 6:30. Mama and Daddy were fretting when they realized the "mama, I get down" alarm didn't go off. I laughed because I had to remind them that it was a no school day! Yeah!
At 8:00 we headed to my school for a parent teacher conference. Mama and Daddy were a little shy being in front of my teachers since we were the only people in the classroom, but I told them it would be okay. Those teachers of mine are sneaky! They told Mama and Daddy that I eat all of my food AND that I am one of the best helpers at clean up time. Now I have to do this at home. Geez...when does a princess catch a break? They also gave away one of my secrets. Mama and Daddy thought I was a genius because I knew all of the animal movements in the book "From Head to Toe" the first time they read it to me. Well, that's because it is my favorite book at school! I love school so much. Every weekend I talk about my teacher Nina. I love her!! But I didn't want mama and daddy to think I love her more than them so I pretended to not like when she held me this morning:
After the conference Daddy had to go to work. Mama kept going on and on about how I had a doctor's appointment and how much fun it would be. I was getting excited!! First we had to stop at her work because Mama forgot her cell phone. I would never lose a cell phone if she gave me one. I'm eyeing an Iphone 'cause I could also watch Elmo videos. Anyways, all the people at her work wanted to meet me. They were okay. This Kelly lady gave me a sticker so she's my favorite. Mama's desk was pretty boring. I don't know where she keeps her finger paints, but she does have a lot of stickers. I made sure her chair was working correctly and spun around a couple times:
After work, Mama seemed kind of tired and I was hungry so we went to a cafe. I made her get yucky coffee. I got yummy milk, a muffin and a banana.
Then we went to the doctor because I'm 2 years old. Mama got me so excited that I ran down the hallway saying "yay doctor!!" The nurse laughed at me. I'm not sure why. I loved all the fishies in the tank. The doctor was very nice and she said I did really well. There was some sort of talk about how I was like mama and only in the 30th percentile for height. The doctor also told mommy to ignore tantrums as much as possible. Ignore me?! Why would anyone say that? I'm screaming and throwing myself on the ground for a reason, people! I wish I never said "Yay doctor!" Then this lady came in and gave me shots. Mama asked for a sesame street sticker to feel better.

Do you know mama naps any free day at home? She says she wishes work had nap time like my school. I'd rather not take a nap. Mama was almost asleep when I decided to rock her to sleep by jumping near her head. Darnit if her bed doesn't have bars around it! I fell on the floor. I decided to give up helping mama sleep and take a nap.
After nap time we headed to the park. Mama said we could stop at the Cake Eater Kids Happy Hour for a $.50 cent cupcake. I got a cupcake because Mama got one. It was okay. I ate the whole thing. The best part was licking my fingers.
I wore my raincoat on our walk since it was drizzling. Mama thought I fell in the puddle in the street, but I meant to do it. I like jumping in puddles.
I told Mama she couldn't go down the slide because it was too wet. I had to stand on the steps to stop her from going up the slide.
Once we left the park, I decided to try this ignore tantrums thing. I cried the entire 3 blocks, and I must say, Mama deserves a sticker. She carried me home and ignored me the whole time even when I screamed so loud that 2 people came out of their houses to make sure I was okay. She told me I'm not allowed to test her at Uncle Mister Christopher's wedding. I'm not sure what that means...I think it is up to me when I get to test her ignoring skills.
Well, that was the Mama and Me day. It was great fun. I can't wait for the next one.

P.S. Mama says this is inspired by some guy named Mercer Mayer who writes kids books that she used to read. I don't know anything about that. I just wanted to tell you about my day.

This sounds like a really great day Miss Penelope! I can't wait to see you tomorrow!
Wow, after a great day like that I don't know if seeing Papa John and the Grandmama is going to be all that exciting. I guess we will have to try and think of things for you to do. I hope you don't try your mom's ignoring skills too much at Uncle Mr. Christopher's wedding. Don't tell anyone, but I bet the Grandmama won't ignore you.
Ha ha- wow, Penny has amazing writing skills!
I just got back from seeing you at Uncle Mr. Christopher's wedding---you are so precious!!! I wish I could have spent more time playing with you....maybe next time! But what a wonderful surprise to come back and catch up on you blog and see what a wonderful day you had with your Mama! You write a wonderful story and I can't wait to read more in the future. I love you very much!!!!
