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!
