Little Sudo's day was a whirlwind! ‍♀️ From splashing in the pool to learning shapes in class ️, this busy bee even shared their cold with a friend (oops!) But flashcards & yummy lunch made everything better! #toddlerlife #learning #dailyvlog #fyp

Wow, today was a busy bee kind of day! It all started with the coolest adventure – swimming! Splashing around in the water is so much fun. I feel like a little fish, kicking my legs and trying to paddle with my arms. I'm not quite ready to win any swimming races yet, but I'm getting better every day.

Unfortunately, all that fun in the water might have come with a little hitchhiker – a runny nose! I hate feeling like I have a cold, but I guess that's just part of being a little person, right? One of my friends in class even caught it from me and had to stay home from school (absent). I hope they feel better soon! Even though I wasn't feeling my best, Dad still took me to school. Mom came along too, but only for a little while. She wanted to make sure I was comfortable and settled in (adjusted to a new environment) before she went to work.

School was still pretty awesome, even with my sniffles. I played with my friends, learned new things, and had the most delicious lunch that Mom packed for me (thanks, Mom!). When afternoon came, I was so happy to see Mom again when she came to pick me up.

We spent the rest of the day having a quiet time together at home. First, it was dinnertime, and guess what? I ate everything on my plate – a real champion! After dinner, I brought out my favorite flashcards – the ones with all the pictures of yummy fruits and vegetables. Guess what? I'm getting really good at recognizing (identifying) all of them! Bananas, apples, carrots, broccoli – you name it, I can point it out!

Before bedtime, I had a warm, relaxing bath to wash away all the sniffles and wiggles from the day. Then, it was cuddle time with my favorite teddy bear. I was so tired from all the fun and learning (even though my nose wasn't feeling its best) that I drifted off to sleep (fell asleep peacefully) super quickly. Tonight, I dreamt of swimming with the fishes, playing tag with my friends, and maybe even seeing a giant banana tree full of delicious treats!

I can't wait to see what adventures tomorrow brings!
