Barbara left for the morning so Mommy and I could have some alone time.  We played hard and had a fun bath with a tub full of toys.
We went to a one-year-old girl's birthday party.  Mommy works with Stella's dad.  At first I was shy, but in just a few minutes I was playing with Stella's brother's trucks.  I ate chicken nuggets and a cupcake.  I wanted to open the presents, but Mommy explained that they were for Stella, so I waited until the presents were open, then I played with some of the toys.
Barbara and I read books with a lot of discussion, until she decided it was time for me to get up and play.  I have a long attention span when it comes to reading.  We made the letters P, M, D, and B out of Play Dough.  Barbara's knee was hurting so I could not convince her to ride trucks with me.  I had to ride all around the living room by myself, except Mommy and Barbara would talk about the places I was going: to church, to play with Landry, to the store for milk, beans, and strawberries, and (of course) to wash PaPa's truck at the lake.  I also would eat some pretend apple, then I was supposed to take Mommy an apple, but when I got close to her, I would gobble it down myself.  We are so silly!
