"I" Day

Today was "I" Day.


In the morning, we identified ("identifizieren") different things hidden in a bottle.



After we played for a little while, we drove to Ikea. That's such a cool store! On the way there, I got to eat Bug Bites ("Insektenkekse.")







For lunch I ate fish-sticks and corn...and a hedgehog ("Igel") made out of mashed potatoes.



Mama and I also read a couple of books that had islands ("Inseln") and igloos ("Iglus") in them.


After my nap, we made an igloo ("Iglu") out of marshmallows.





For dinner, Mama and Daddy ate Indian ("indisches") food, but I didn't like that very much.

"H" Day

Wednesday was "H" Day in Houston.

For breakfast, I got to eat oatmeal ("Haferflocken") and cocoa in a bunny cup ("Hasenbecher.") And my hair ("Haare") looked extra wild today.




Opa and I played a fun game with our hands ("Hände.")


Oma and I had lots of fun playing with my new dog stamp ("Hundestempel.")



I also got a hat ("Hut") and a shirt ("Hemd") with a dog ("Hund") on it.




Check out this funny rabbit ("Hase!") You can make his eyes hover in the air.




Isn't this a cool shirt ("Hemd?")


After all the playing, I got hungry ("hungrig.") We ate hot dogs and veggies with Hollandaise sauce ("holländischer Soße.") Yummy!


After my nap, we got to eat some of the tall ("hoher") heart ("Herz") cake Mama made.




And then I got a "Hampelmann" that Mama and Oma made for me.


After that, I got to use my hammer ("Hammer") to put a hook in the wall for my "Hampelmann.")



For dinner, we ate hamburgers.


Thanks for a supercool "H" day, Oma and Opa!

"G" Day

Today was "G" Day.

For breakfast, I got to eat green ("grün") oatmeal in a yellow ("gelb") bowl with my pancake. And I wore a yellow ("gelb") shirt, too.



Mama and I colored my "G" picture and read some stories ("Geschichten.")


I also played (gespielt) a lot. Did you know that I can play golf ("Golf?")




I got to play Daddy's guitar ("Gitarre") too. Here is a sampling of my musical genius:





And I watched my GoFish video. They're my favorite group.


For lunch, we all ate green ("grün") broccoli with yellow ("gelb") cheese sauce, a grilled ("gegrillt") gouda ("Gouda") cheese sandwich, and yellow pudding with bananas.


After my nap, we had giraffes ("Giraffen") as a snack, and I made a new friend as well. His name is Georg, and he is a yellow ("gelbe") giraffe ("Giraffe.")



Talking to Georg is a lot of fun.




We went to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner, where I got to eat mac and cheese...yellow ("gelb") food for dinner to finish off a great day.
