Our Crazy Week!

This was one of the longest weeks ever... there are not a ton of pictures, but there are a ton of stories that mommy wants to remember... so here we go!

On Sunday (the 22nd) daddy took me outside to ride bikes, mommy joined us on her bike and I decided I wanted to race her.  As I approached the finish line (curb) I forgot how to break and racked myself pretty badly.  At that point I decided that going pee would hurt and decided to hold it..

For 16 hours... yep that's right!  On Monday morning I went to school and faked a smile to mommy... mom told Ms. Judy what happened, but thought I would be fine for school (she had no idea I was holding my pee)...

Mom took me to the potty at school, but I said I didn't need to go...

an hour later school called and said I was miserable... by the time I got me home I was screaming in pain and mom thought maybe I had a UTI... a gallon of pee, later we realized I had just gotten sent home from school because I needed to pee! :(

Ridiculous!

Tuesday morning I woke up and immediately demanded that Cookie Bear was going to have a birthday party (a game I had been playing the day before with daddy after I was feeling better) and that I didn't want to go to ballet because I needed to plan the party and decorate... 

After some arguing and threatening (and bribery) I ended up dressed for ballet with the promise that we would make cupcakes after ballet and have a real party for Cookie (mom had nothing planned after ballet)...

So I happily got ready for ballet...





A dozen heart shaped cupcakes later, it was time for Cookie's party...

Her best friend is Penny (the purple bear)...

Helping her blow out her candles...

and helping her enjoy her cupcake...

We played party games and even took pony rides on Maggie Pony...



All my bears!
Pepper, Rainbow, Cookie, Penny, Black Bear, Trixie, Dixie, Charlie, Ali, & Millie...  Oh how Build A Bear loves us!

At the end of the day on Tuesday I was working on my acrobat moves and fell off the ottoman... ugh!  My foot was in bad shape... and so mom called me in sick to school on Wednesday.  We had our paramedic friend Mr. Brian come look at it, there was some bruising, but not a lot of swelling... so lots of rest and ice were prescribed...

Thursday morning my foot was doing a little better so we went ahead with our day of fun.  Maribelle came over to spend the morning with us...

We had a blast in the playroom...



and took some best friend pictures...


went to McDonalds...

and then headed to the movies to see Beauty & the Beast...


Lilly joined us...

and then Piper... 4 preschool friends enjoying a princess movie!

We had a great time!  My foot was starting to feel better and mom was so excited to have Friday to herself. After the movie Maribelle's mommy picked her up and we went to Barnes and Noble... mom knew she was in trouble when I said "I want to go home" (usually a trip to B&N can take an hour)... once home I immediately started running a fever and took a nap on mommy's bed.  I spent Thursday night, Friday, & Saturday with a fever virus (no other symptoms) and mommy and I got to spend even more time together.
The good news is... my foot is on the mend and I've been fever free since Saturday... woo hoo!  And mommy... well mommy needs a girl's night out BAD!

3rd Post: Fairy Tea Party

Saturday afternoon I got to attend a super fun fairy tea party for my neighbor Claire who is just a few weeks younger than me...

It was so nice to be able to walk to a party!
and I hammed it up before we left...





Ready for some mommy time!  Daddy stayed home to build my IKEA furniture...

Me and the birthday girl...

She's so sweet!  She knew that I didn't know any of her other friends so she asked me to sit next to her when we had our tea...

We were the best behaved group of fairies mommy has ever seen!  We played so well together!


Time for tea!

We all had unique cups...

and had yummy tea food...

The cupcakes were amazing with marshmallow icing...

The birthday girl!

Time to sing happy birthday (Claire was not so sure about the candles)...



Yummo!

All the fairies lined up in a row!


After presents we headed up to the playroom...


Thank you for inviting me Claire!  I had a blast!
