Hi.  I had a birthday on May 1st.  I was sick on my birthday, though, but I started feeling better. 

On April 25th, Gram came over to our house.  She took me and Jordan out to eat and out to WalMart to buy some stuff.  Mommy said when we were leaving that when I got home there would be a big surprise for me.  I was asking Jordan, "Do you know what it is?"  She said, "Yes, I do know what it is, but I'm not going to tell you!".  We came home and I got my big surprise.  It was a BUNNY!!!!!  I was really excited.  I got it for an early birthday present.  I was so surprised. 

We went to the pet store to get a cage, some food, some hay, a salt block, a minerals block, and a toy.  Her name is Floppy Joanne King.  She had already been named Floppy before we got her, but I always liked Joanne.  The rest of the family calls her Floppy Jo, but I don't like that because it sounds like sloppy joes and that has meat in it and Floppy will not be meat!!!!  The boys joke about having a rabbit stew.  I don't like that.

We also bought a leash.  I take her outside every single day with her leash on so she can exercise.  Our friend Macey from Tennessee raises rabbits.  She said they like carrot pulp and banana peels, and that they could eat pretty much any fruits and vegetables as long as you don't give them too much.  Her favorites so far is cabbage, apple, and banana.  She also has rabbit food and treats.

Then after my birthday was over, we celebrated my birthday because I was feeling better.  Daddy and I went fishing just us.  I caught 2 fish and Daddy caught none!!!!!  We came home and had a brunch.  I opened some presents, I got clip on earrings, music box, some clothes, blendy pens, cd player and earphones (from my brothers), and some money. 

Now about school--I am starting 2nd grade.  My favorite thing to do in school is Math.  Handwriting is my least favorite.  Mommy said I was a whiz at 1st grade Language Arts in reading.  We still do our school time during the summer, then we get to take off other times--like our Indiana trip. 

That's all for now.  Love, Jaimee
