Telling people about my blog

When I told my first grade teacher about my blog today at school she was surprised and she wanted me to write down the name of it. I like to ask my mom to help me type up my blog every few days.

Today I started reading a really funny book called "Junie B. Jones: Jingle Bells, Batman Smells (PS So Does May)." The story is about Junie B. Jones who doesn't like a girl like May in her class. At first when I read the title of the book, I thought she meant the month of May. Well, so, the book is about a girl named Junie B and a girl named May. My favorite part was when they went out to the hall and Junie B. jumped up and said, "I am calm!" There is also another part of the book that was really funny...Junie B. was in the hallway saying she hates May and she doesn't want to be her secret Santa (PS I don't really know what that means yet).

My room is all painted now. It makes me feel happy and surprised when I walk into my room. I'm still used to having my room with yellow stripes.

Mylie likes it when I hit her in the head with a pillow. She laughs a LOT. My mom doesn't think it is a good idea to do.

Have you heard this joke yet:

Knock, KNOCK!

Who's there?

Banana.

Banana who?

Knock, knock.

Who's there?

Banana.

Banana who?

Knock, knock.

Who's there?

Orange.

Orange who?!?

Orange you glad I didn't say banana?


My favorite show to watch is Sponge Bob Square Pants. I also like to watch Discovery Kids. One of my favorite shows on Discovery Kids is 'Flight 29 Down.'

Whenever there is pizza at school and I'm buying lunch I ALWAYS ALWAYS get pizza. PS- So does my friend Zachary Peffley.

Adios. Talk to you later.

More

Two of my favorite classes at school are art and music. I like art because I love making crafts and painting. I like music, because it is fun to do and I like hearing and listening to the beat that we are playing.



Today is my Aunt Suzanne's birthday. I wonder how old she is turning. I think she is probably 26 or 27, because she is younger than my dad. Well, actually I think she is probably 21 or 22. Actually, I just really don't know. I like it when I can go to her house and go to the park. Did you know I had sushi for the very first time with my Aunt Suzanne? I reallly REALLY like sushi. SUSHI!



Yesterday I went to the pool. It was so much fun. I can float on my back. My body is kind of like a raft and my arms are like paddles. If someone sat on me, I would sink, so not that kind of raft. It would be embarassing. I also can to do a flip under the water and do a handstand!



Last night we went to see fireworks as a family. It was so fun! I love fireworks. We also found some pizza boxes from one of the vendors at the summer kick off party and Andrew and I went sledding on them down the grass. My dad got Sno-cones for me and Andrew and Zack. I really liked mine. I had blueberry and strawberry!



One of my favorite candies is reese's peanut butter cups. I'm eating some right now in my ice cream.



Well, I have to go get ready for church now.



By the way, yesterday when I got back from the pool I helped with home beautification by mopping the floor. I slipped on the floor and bumped my head. There was no caution wet floor sign, so it was dangerous.



My dad is painting my room and Mylie's room lavendar. I am so excited. Bye.

Meet Miss Maddie Pie

My mom told me it was ok to start a blog and that she would help me with it until I get the hang of what to do. Miss Maddie Pie is a nickname my Grandfather gave me when I was a baby. He likes to give people nicknames. Andrew does not like nicknames. He only likes to be called A-N-D-R-E-W. Andrew only. That is why my Grandfather likes to call him other names. Grandfather calls my brother Zachary 'Zack Iraq Attack' and my sister 'Smiley Mylie.' Sometimes he even calls my dad 'Benny Boy,' but I haven't actually ever heard him say it with my dad in the room. My Dad used to call my Grandfather 'Daddy Dave.' He doesn't anymore.

I am the oldest child in my family. My mom and dad are also both the oldest kids in their families. I am the oldest grandchild on boths sides of my family. I am even the oldest great-grandchild in my Grandpa Burton's family.

I have lots of aunts and uncles, but I only have three cousins. They live down the street from me. They are Bracken, Abbie, and Tate. Sometimes I call Tate 'Monkey Boy.'

I am most likely the smartest kid in Cedar Lane Elementary School first grade. Sometimes my teacher gives us math problems that are higher than fifth grade problems, I usually get them right. I usually don't like it when we play kickball at recess. I like to go play at the playground instead.

I am allergic to dogs and cats.

The funniest joke I know is this:

Knock, knock!
Who's there?
Peace up.
Peace up who?
Ewww, gross! HaHaHaHa!

I'm pretty tall. I'm tall enough to go on the rock climbing wall at the gym, but I haven't climbed it yet.

Of all the things in the world that I could be the best of, I would have to say I am best at kicking a soccer ball. My mom never signs me up for soccer though.

I have nine or ten best friends.

I love playing on Barbiegirls.com, but I never give away any personal information. My mom thinks it gives too much information to strangers and that I will get kidnapped. My mom worries about me a lot. Sometimes I'm afraid of heights.

My favorite food is mashed potatoes. I like them with pepper and gravy. But, sometimes I like them separate, like only with gravy and no pepper, and sometimes pepper with no gravy. My friends Will and Lindsey think it is gross that I like greenbeans with ketchup. My grandma thinks that is gross too.

My favorite colors are dark green and dark blue. Well, I'm signing off now, I'll talk to you later. Bye!
