Jillian's Book Parade

Jillian had a book parade today at Hillcrest Preschool.  There was a police car, fire truck, and part of the local high school band playing.  A 'true' parade.  Each class represented a book.  Jillian's class chose . . . ? hmmm, I have absolutely NO idea what their book was - oops.  Her main teacher has been out on maternity leave, and I never received a note about the book or if she was supposed to wear anything special.  How's that for an excuse?  Anyway, I was a wonderful day for a parade.  Jillian was THRILLED to see us, and I was proud of her.  She is incredible!  Stella, Chloe & Claire were on their best behavior for the parade!  I was very happy!  Lots of snacks always seem to help too.  Stella has been into the puppets, and brought a doggie along to see the parade.  Very cute stuff.

I would like to add some more Jillianisms to this post:

- that's gonna take FOREVER

-the movie is itchy (this is for DVD's that are scratched.  I guess she confuses the 'scratched' DVD for being itchy)

- (This is Jillian leaving a message for Grammy on the phone)

Yes, this is a message for Grammy.  Can you tell Grammy that I called?  And tell her to call me back.  Also, tell Grammy that if she wants to come over my house she can.  Thanks.  Give that message to Grammy today, ok?And tell Grammy that I love her very very very very very very very much. Bye.

- Mommy when you are not in the room am I the babysitter?

- (These one is normally said while crying) 

Stella won't listen to me!  

Stella keeps taking my animals.

Stella keeps dropping her cup so I have to pick it up.

Abi is being mean to me.

- Is it my birthday?  My birthday is gonna take forever - like 100 days!!
