On our way out, we saw my friend Nicholas (from Kid's Gym). Then, we stopped at Panera and got a cookie. Mom introduced me to her friend, "Ms. Mary" who is a teacher at church just like Mom. She was nice. Then, we headed home for pool time, pizza, and my favorite lunch-time TV pal, Caillou! Whew! Busy day. Time for some sleep.
I kept looking for the slot for the token, but I couldn't find it. So, I decided that I should try to feed it to Barney. I guess he just looked hungry to me.
I took a ride with Barney on the tractor.
What goes up, must come down! 
Whatever this crazy bird's name is, she was my favorite character in the playhouse. I kept putting my cheek to her cheek and smiling. (Except, of course, when mom took a picture).
Here I am crawling up to the playhouse and slide area. This toddler playhouse was less intense that the "big girl" slide and tunnel play area, which I tried out today because there were no "big kids" around except for me. Mom didn't get any pics of that because she spent most of that 15 minute block trying to rescue me from the hamster maze 8 feet in the air. (somethings should not be repeated).
Mom showed me how to use this "bead maze" and I practiced rolling the little red balls though the maze a few times. Every time Chuck E. Cheese would come on stage I got distracted, though.
We headed over to the Toddler Zone and I enjoyed seeing some of my favorite characters. I did not, however, enjoy riding Clifford. In my opinion, he is much less annoying if he is not moving.
I just crack myself up!
I just loved the way those little plastic sombreros floated across the table. It was so much fun to spin them and watch them float.
. . . and then a hard, yellow pancake came out of the side of the table. I discovered that it fit perfectly inside this little pocket. I jut kept putting it in and it just kept coming back out. (In the end, the score was something like 22 to 0 - Mom thought that was funny.)
Then, I discovered the highlight of the morning - the air hockey table. I put in a token and magic happened! Air came out of these little tiny holes in the table!
. . . and a few right here, too.
A few here . . . . .
I decided that the steps leading up to the horse were a lot more exciting than the horse itself. Turns out these steps are the perfect place to lay out all of my tokens!
Mommy had to grab one more picture before she helped me dismount the moving horse! (Sheesh! Mom and that darn camera!)
I loved climbing up on this horse, but as soon as I put a token in and it started to move, I wanted off immediately!
We headed out to Chuck E. Cheese's to use up the tokens I had leftover from our previous visit. Mom tried to convince me to stop at the playground on the way, but I assumed that would pale in comparison to the big, cheezy mouse house so I said, "no" to that idea. Here I am riding the helicopter, which I was ready to get off of as soon as it started rising upward a bit. It's a good thing I buckled myself in first! 
One of my favorite parts of the morning was hiding the eggs for Mommy to find. I also hid the "Daddy Duck". Mommy thought it was very amusing (in a sweet and innocent kind of way) that this was my best attempt at hiding the eggs. I was sooooo excited when Mom "found" them.
Mom let me play with the foam letter stickers in lieu of stamps, which was my original choice. When I had completed my masterpiece, I informed Mommy that "He's decorated!" several times. Didn't I do a great job? (You should see him from the back!)
Today was an "early" day. "I woke up in my little bed . . . " around 6:15 AM. Mom was in denial until 6:30 AM, but eventually came into my room and took me back to her bed to watch a little TV while she pretended to sleep. We ate vanilla yogurt and waffles for breakfast. Then, I was ready to go! I just put on Mom's flip flops and got ready to head out the door. Who needs pants?!
