I told mommy she has to wear her train conductor hat, just like me,
this morning. Otherwise she can't do the train conductor dance!

The train conductor dance is bending over and hopping, with your arms
up behind your back. Mommy did it three times wrong before she did it
right.

Being Three

I still have some nightmares, mostly about a tiger chasing me and eating me. Mommy says I should tell the Tiger he's NOT REAL and tickle him until he squeaks. I told her that doesn't work.

I am thinking about what I want to be when I grow up. I have said a mechanic, a doctor, a scientist, a lawyer. But then this morning, after talking about those things, I said no no, I want to be a ROBOT!

I am sweet to my brother. This morning a fed him half of my banana. It's tricky because he always wants to grab it. Then I sang him the lullaby that grandpa sings, "Hush little baby." I got all the way to the part about the diamond ring, and then I made up words that were silly.

I like making up silly songs, and usually they get sillier and I get louder until I'm yelling "LAAAA LAAAA GOOOO BAAA DAAAA" as loud as I can. Sometimes Lillian sings with me, and Alex always laughs and claps his hands.

I'm doing Science Stuff with grandpa today. I'm going to go to the lab. That's exciting.
I get really mad when Alex breaks my train tracks. I like building the train tracks.

Oh, and I love baking! I ask whose birthday is next and then I want to bake a birthday cake for them. I baked a soccer ball cake for Tory's birthday, and a rocket ship cake for Uncle Chris' birthday (Daddy's brother), and I'm going to bake a duckie cake for Alex's birthday. It's fun, and I like to taste the frosting.

Dreams

I have more dreams and nightmares now. Mommy can tell because I say
strange things. A few days ago I said "I'm happy that Alex was
born.". I told her I was just remembering the hospital.

Another day, I asked a very quiet question about "somebody come and
take me away?". When she asked me what was wrong, I thought about it
and said "can you tell me there's nothing I have to be worried about?"

I can do more things! I buttoned my own jammies, and I can tell
people my name and mommys name and daddy's name.
