boom boom bear

i was in my very first school show last night! i remembered all my dance moves and even all the words to my song




















here i am doing a boom boom with my tummy

i had a real good time

can you see the lightman?

at lunchtime yesterday it started raining like mad, not just cats and dogs but cows and elephants too!

mummy tried to go back to her school after lunchtime but she couldnt get out of the road because there was suddenly a river where the road used to be!

mummy asked a-bei at the little shop to help come pick me up (he has a big jeep) so off they set at 2:45 to drive the six minutes to my school, after taking more than hour and about 10 miles of back roads all blocked or getting blocked with water and rivers mummy decided to walk the last mile

mummy walked through waist and chest deep water trying a few different roads that were impassable til she finally found a way to my school, the principle was very surprised to see her as none of the other parents had made it there, and the teachers had started making dinner for everyone and laying down beds and blankets for the night

mummy bundled me up and carried me out of the school, i thought it was great all this water everywhere, people walking and pushing their scooters, me dangling my feet into the water, and laughing at the bubbles mummy's legs were making

mummy walked home the long way round because she knew some of the roads where still open on the way down might still be open on the way back

we sung songs all the way home including "i hear thunder, i hear thunder boom boom boom, can you see the lightman? can you see the lightman? boom boom boom"

all in all mummy did a good job and once we had gotten away from our school area the water was much shallower, only coming up to her thighs most of the time, we got back to a-beis shop and told him we were ok, he had had to get out of the area as it was getting to bad, with concrete blocks being pushed down the road by the water, and was surprised to see us so soon

we got home at 5:30 and daddy didnt get home until 9:30 after the rain had stopped and the floods had gone down a bit

mummy went to bed with me after we had mopped up the ground and fourth floors, she said she was really tired and that it was the best work out she had had in months!

where are you?

we were coming home from school the other day and i said "daddy is a man" and so mummy asked "what is tiana?" i said "nana is a girl."

so then mummy asked "what is mummy?"
i had to think about that for a minute mmmmmmmm
"mmmm mummy is a mum!"

when we get home i love to take all my clothes off and run around naked for a while shouting "look mummy nana no clothes"

i was sitting on the floor naked and said to mummy
"what happened?"
she looked at me, with my legs spread wide, sitting on the floor looking at my fanny and i said "willy where are youuuuuuu?"

mummy said "tiana you are a girl, like mummy, you dont have a willy"
i said "mmm what happened?" and looked some more for it "where are you willlllllly?"

nanas words!

i love words, i love books - daddy says i am turning into mummy!

just now i love asking everybody about everything "whats that?" i ask it on average 200 times a day

but some words are mine all mine and no one else should use them

"i love you mummy" and mummy says "i love you nana" and i say "no mummy, thats nanas words"

i start singing "twinkle twinkle little star"
and then mummy sings "how i wonder what you are?"
"no mummy, thats nanas words!"

"oh look mummy a baaaaaaaaaby"
mummy says "aww what a cute baby"
"no mummy, baby is nanas words!"

and when the lala truck comes i sing "la la la la la"
and mummy starts singing!
"NO mummy, thats nanas words" (my mummy doesnt learn very fast does she?!)

so mummy asked me what words could she sayand i told her

"mummy you say blah blah blah blah!"

watch out

sometimes mummy picks me up from school on her scooter but her beep beep is broken so my job is to let everyone know we are there

"watch out everyboy nana is coming" i shout

"watch out trees nana is coming" i scream

"watch out mooooooon nana is here!"

and this morning when i was getting ready for school i was shouting out the door

"watch out rain nana is coming, you stop now k!" and it did
