Obviously my mommy, daddy, Josie, and I have been busy. I started pre-school, which is the single picture by myself, in September and I love it. I go to school two days a week in the morning. I have met several new friends. Mommy also started school. She has been so busy since they reduced staff in the special education department at her work. She brings so much work home every night. She is supposed to be doing that work right now, but instead she wants to let you know what we have been up to. Daddy is working at ConAgra and it has been a wonderful move for him. He never travels anymore and Josie, mommy, and I love that. Daddy is also home in the morning so we get to give him kisses in the morning also. As for Josie, she is CRAZY, just like me. She is running around, talking, and climbing on everything. Mommy and daddy have taken our kitchen chairs and placed them in the bathroom because Josie kept climbing on the island. I guess she takes after me.
Josie is currently saying lots of words. She is able to say, "hot dog, NO, more, uh uh (especially when mommy and daddy tell her to get down from their bed), and outside." She also says a lot of other words, but we can't always understand her. Josie is still in the crib, but probably not for long. I actually taught her how to climb in the crib, but mommy got mad. I guess mommy wants her to stay in the crib a little longer. As for her health, she currently has Croup again. She has had croup 9 times in her life, 3 times since August. Mommy talked to the Dr. today and Josie is going to go on an allergy medicine to see if that helps. Other than the croup, Josie is doing great. She is almost 24 pounds and pure energy. She laughs and plays with me all the time. At times she even wakes me up when I am sleeping. I get very mad when she does this, but mommy and daddy laugh. I love my little sister, Josie Nicole Meyers.
Mommy has been going through a lot of medical things right now, but nothing really serious. She had to have a procedure a couple weeks ago to help with some issues that happened after Josie. She also has been getting injections of cortisone in her hip in order to keep going to the gym. The Dr. thinks she has bursitis, but are not 100% sure. Other than these minor things, mommy is busy. She gets up at 4:30 in the morning 2-3 times a week to go to the gym so she can spend time with Josie and I after work. That is amazing because that is really early. I love my mommy so much!
Daddy has been working hard at work and is getting ready to have a birthday. He will be 34 years old the day before Turkey Day. I can't wait for his birthday cake with candles. My daddy is the best. Daddy and Papa Meyers built my sister and I an awesome swing set. It took them 30 hours to complete the task, but it is so awesome. Josie and I love to play on the swings and the slides. Thanks daddy and Papa for all your hard work and for making my sister and I so happy to have our own play area. I love my daddy the best!
As for me, I am almost 4 years old. "When I turn 4 I am going to sleep in my bed all night long." Speaking of my bed, mommy and daddy rearranged my bedroom and I got a t.v. in my room. Mommy thinks that a t.v was a bad idea, but she wanted to try it to see if I would stay in my room. I guess she doesn't understand that I'm not 4 yet. I am starting to make my Christmas and birthday list so hopefully I get everything I ask for. Some of my new sayings are: damn it (that comes from mommy);I hate you; actually...; your stupid; when I flush the toilet I say bye bye, don't come back tomorrow; tricked you; and pretty much anything that is on my mind. For the I hate yous and your stupid I have to sit in time out. Mommy and daddy don't really like those words.
The last story that I'm going to tell you is my last trick I played on my parents. It was the worst trick ever. Mommy, daddy, Josie, and I went to NFM the other day to look at bunk beds for me. I decided to take off from mommy and daddy. Mommy and daddy were frantic and looking all over for me. The store clerks were looking all over and mommy was crying. After hearing my name several times and seeing my mommy cry I popped out from behind the wall I was standing behind. I feel bad that I tricked my parents and made mommy so upset. I cried because I thought my mommy would not like me anymore. I am so glad that I came out from hiding behind that wall. I love my mommy, daddy, and Josie so much.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Love,
Drew
