"D" Day

Today was "D" day. Oma and Mama had lots of big plans, but they needed to change those a bit, because I'm sick and none of us got much sleep last night.

For breakfast, I got to eat a Dora yogurt with my pancake.


After that, I put together a dinosaur ("DInosaurier") puzzle with Mama and Oma.




I brushed my teeth with my Diego toothbrush. Do you see all the dinosaurs ("Dinosaurier") on my PJs?



Oma got me new slippers...with a Diego jibbit.


I got a dragon ("Drache") as well. He got to play with my castle and the knight.


And here is my snazzy dinosaur ("Dinosaurier") shirt.


Outside ("Draußen") I got to play detective ("Detektiv") and look for dinosaurs ("Dinosaurier") in the sand.



Mama and Oma tried to fly a kite ("Drachen") in the backyard. They said it'd work better at the park next time.


For lunch we ate "Dampfnudeln" with vanilla sauce. "Dampfnudeln" are like a sweet dumpling.


After nap, I got to eat dirt ("Dreck") with worms (crushed Oreos with gummy worms.)

"C" Day

Today was "C" Day...Mama said there aren't a lot of German words that start with "C," but we still had a lot of fun.

This morning I got to have Capri Sun ("Capri Sonne") with my pancake.


Then, I got to watch Caillou (in German). I was so excited about that.


Next, we made a Clown ("Clown.") I let Mama help me color.




Mama also showed me a calendar with pictures of Celle (Mama's hometown.) I told her that we'll be flying there soon...and Oma and Opa are going to come, too.



For lunch I got to have "Currywurst," chips ("Chips") and some more Capri Sun. (I ate other things, too, but those words didn't start with "C.")


After naptime, I got to eat cashews ("Cashewnüsse.") And then I got to play my Caillou game on the Computer ("Computer.") How fun!


And lastly, I got to color my "C" picture.

"B" Day

Today was "B" Day.


For breakfast, I had a pancake with a whipped cream "B" and a banana ("Banane") smoothie.


Then, Mama and I made a ball ("Ball") with a bunch of rubber bands.



We read books ("Bücher") about bears ("Bären") and put together a bear puzzle.


Next, we baked ("backen.") We made cupcakes and Mama decorated them to look like flowers ("Blumen.")



Crafts ("Basteln") were next on the agenda. We made a bee ("Biene.")





And I got to watch Veggietales' "Lord of the Beans" (beans = "Bohnen")


Upstairs we played with my castle ("Burg"), train station ("Bahnhof") and excavator ("Bagger.")




For lunch I ate bread ("Brot") with butter ("Butter") along with some cauliflower ("Blumenkohl") and broccoli ("Broccoli.")


Afterwards, we went to the library ("Bücherei") and checked out a lot of books ("Bücher.") And we read all of them before nap-time.




After my nap, I got to eat some pretzels ("Bretzeln.") Then, I colored my "B" picture...with lots of help from Mama.
