Bowling with Marissa


My friend Marissa and I are five years old now and we've become pretty good bowlers. Today it was raining so Mommy and Aunty Melodie took us to Grandview Lanes.

Marissa really likes me and today she wanted to be as close to me as she could get. She followed me EVERYWHERE. I don't mind. It didn't bother my bowling.

Father's Day

Today is Father's Day and my Daddy is out golfing with Luke and Thomas' dads. Since Daddy is gone this morning, Mommy and I decided to serve Daddy his breakfast last night.

I LOVE Father's Day because it's the one time in the year that I'm allowed to have breakfast in bed. It's my gift to Daddy. When Daddy came home from work last night, I tucked him into bed, served him a glass of wine and made sure he had something interesting to read. Then I went downstairs to help Mommy make omelettes, fruit salad and croissants.


I did the same thing last year so to surprise Daddy a little more, I added one more gift.

Hanging Out


I love hanging around after school to play with my friends. This is Thomas and Luke. Luke is tall, he's the only one of us who can touch the ground.

Flower Shop


Mommy and I went to the garden centre to buy some flowers for the garden. Here's our shopping cart. I think Mommy went a little crazy.

Graduation

Yesterday was my official graduation from preschool. I got a certificate and everything!



Mommy tells me that there will be many more graduation ceremonies. I liked it so now I can't wait to graduate from Kindergarten.

Blast Ball

This spring, I've been playing Blast Ball with my friend Thomas. Our team is called the Orange Crush-Exploders. Today was our last game.

Blast Ball is a lot of fun! I really like hitting the ball, running the bases after the game and all the cheering and high-5s. Even though we aren't supposed to, we do a lot of wrestling while waiting for our turn to hit and catch and I think that's really fun too.


But, of all the things we do at Blast Ball, I think all my friends will agree, that snack time after the game is the best - especially when someone brings Fruit Sensations or Timbits!

Beach Bums

Mommy and I went to Kits Beach with our friends Aunty Melodie and Marissa today. It was so warm and relaxing playing at the beach. Marissa and I played in the sand, ate lunch and looked for treasure. Marissa taught me about sea glass and I found some to start a collection of my own.


Here we are having lunch together.


After all the treasure hunting, Marissa and I needed to take a little rest.

Super Friends Unite!

I had a playdate at my friend Matthew's house today. Matthew is my first preschool friend and the person who taught me about super heros.

Olivia is Matthew's older sister. She's pretty cool. For a girl, she knows a lot about super heros and can totally keep up with Matthew and me.


Here's a photo that Matthew's mom took of us in our costumes. Of course, I always want to be Superman because he's the leader of all the super heros.

Monkey Business


The monkey bars at the park near my cousin Jacob's house are low enough for me to reach. For a long time now, I've really wanted to learn how to swing on them. I did a lot of tries today but it's really hard work!

Tree Lover


Every Saturday, after my Blast Ball game, Mommy lets me play at the park with my friend Thomas. We LOVE trying to climb the big trees in the park. Unfortunately, we don't really know how.


Thomas and I have been working on it for weeks and today, with a few hints from Mommy, I think I figured it out!



Look at me! I'm so high up in the tree...


Now, if only I weren't so scared to go a little bit higher.

Budding Cellist


My piano lessons are finished for the year and I have a holiday from piano lessons over the summer. Perhaps I'll learn to play the cello next.
