It was cousin Jackson's second birthday and I couldn't wait to get to the party! There was a bounce house and a pinata and I am not sure which I loved more. Jackson loves Thomas the Train so that was the theme of the party and he scored on the presents with tons of Thomas the Train. His best (and biggest) present though is a cool swing set that his Daddy will be putting together tomorrow and I will get to spend plenty of time on!
It was time for my yearly haircut. Seriously, I turn 3 in August and this is only my second haircut. My first one was Mother's Day 2009 so I was definately long past due for another. Mommy and I headed to a haircutting place espesically for kids. When we walked in the place was empty except for four employees standing around. They asked Mommy, "do you have an appointment?" and when Mommy said "no" one of the employees had the nerve to ask another "do you still want to take her?" Apparently, they weren't expecting to cut hair when they came to work today???? 
Mommy, Grandma and I met with Emilie from the Utah Schools for The Deaf and Blind today to get some more questions answered about the programs. Daddy, Grandma and I will visit each preschool on Tuesday to help determine which path I should take - ASL or spoken language/listening skills. If I go the ASL route I will probably stay in a school specifically for kids who use ASL until I graduate from high school. If I go the spoken language/listening route I will probably attend a school to learn these skills until it is time for middle school and then I will be mainstreamed if I am doing well. Whichever decision my parents make it will be after lots of thought and discussion. They have no doubt I will do well whichever path I choose.
Two days ago was my Grandma Mower's 60th birthday. Because she was working we got together tonight at Aunt Kristin's to celebrate the big day. The 60's aren't anything to be afraid of:
Today was my first step in transitioning to preschool in Utah. It was my evaluation with Early Intervention. I like to make things a little difficult for everyone so as of tomorrow I am officially in the 90 day transition from Early Intervention to preschool. To complicate things further, the school district is getting ready to go out on summer break and I turn 3 right as school is starting for the next year. So basically that means everyone needs to work a little harder and faster to get all this worked out - but everyone is willing to help.
After missing my pediatrician's appointment last week because I got hospitalized for an URI, I finally made it back today. For those not familiar with Utah, Primary Children's Hospital (where I was admitted last week) is right next door to University Hospital. Most of the doctors who practice at Primary Children's are employed by University Hospital. So we headed to University Hospital tonight to see Dr Norlin. Dr Norlin is my cousin Jackson's pediatrician too. Dr Norlin was running about an hour behind but I was in a good mood and kept myself entertained pretty well in the exam room. When he came in to the room, Mommy quickly gave him a general overview of my medical history (okay maybe not so quickly) and then she had a list of things she wanted to discuss. Dr Norlin was a trooper and spent as long with Mommy as she needed even though his day was long since over. 
Nothing better than having a Lil Drum and watching my favorite show - Caillou!
