"O" Day

Today was "O" Day.


I watched "Jonah," since it has a lot of scenes that take place in the ocean ("Ozean.")


Then I colored with my orange ("orange") pen.


Mama colored the Olympic rings ("Olympischen Ringe") for me.


We read Nemo, since the fish live in the ocrean ("Ozean.")


Of course, I talked to Oma and Opa on the phone s well.


Mama and I made an ox ("Ochse") as well.


For lunch I had baked potato ("Ofenkartoffel,") an olive ("Olive,") and Omelette ("Omelette,") and a fruit salad ("Obstsalat.") And I got to drink orange juice ("Orangensaft") as well.


For dessert, I got to eat some Easter Bunny ("Osterhase.") Made out of chocolate, of course.



Mama also showed me pictures of Oslo, since Opa travels there sometimes.


After my nap, I got to eat Oreos. Those are so yummy!

Preschool

Today was my first day of Preschool. Mama says I'm a big boy. I had so much fun and can't wait until Thursday! That's when I get to go back to school.


Mama bought me a pinwheel, and I got to make my own pizza for lunch. And Mama made cupcakes to celebrate my first day.

Markus

Look what I can write all by myself:

Mama and I spent a few days with Oma and Opa. We went swimming, played soccer, and had lots of fun!

Mesquite Rodeo

Mama, Daddy and I went to the rodeo with Grandma and Granddad. The best part? Cotton Candy! It was the first time I got to eat that.

I'm 4 years old!

Here are a few pictures from my birthday. Oma and Mama made a Lego cake for me.






Here's my "Wobble Deck." I can use it to make music.



And here is the scooter I got from Mama and Daddy. I can go super-fast!






That evenin, Grandma, Granddad, Aunt Amy und Uncle Jay came over. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of us yet. But we had lots of fun. We ate pizza, jumped on the trampoline, and I got to show them my scooter.

Boating and Fort Worth

On Monday, we rented a boat. I even got to help steer.




Afterwards, we drove to Fort Worth. I saw real longhorns and Oma and Opa and I went through a maze looking for letters. I got to pet a horse, too.
