Yesterday, we painted the purple wall! I helped Daddy by showing him the spot he hadn’t gotten to yet. And we played in the li’l yard for the first time!

There’s much to do at the new house before we move in. A little cleaning, a little repairing. But the next big project is Operation: Adios, Purple Wall.




Mommy: Dexy, did you know that we’re moving into a new house soon?
Me: Bring my white bag of cars!
Mommy: Yeah, we’ll bring all of your cars.
Me: (Pointing to my big red Ferrari) Bring that car.
Mommy: Yep, we’ll bring that car.
Me: Bring my blankie.
Mommy: Yeah, we’re bringing your blankie.
Me: (Pointing to something laying in the corner) Bring that thing.
Mommy: Yeah. We’ll bring your pajama pants.
I have a dislike for the library that only I understand. But when Mommy and Daddy needed to pick up some books, I went back to the kid’s section and, well, yeah okay, the train set is fun.



We have a new house and there’s nothing in it!

Pouring everything out of your maraca is the best part of maraca making.

Yesterday, I had my first outing with a Portland group of kids who meet weekly for crafts and outdoorsy fun. We made maracas out of plastic bottles and then hiked up Mt. Tabor (a volcano!) to the playground. (And when I say “hiked,” I mean that Mommy carried me the whole way.) I had so much fun! I even slept with my maraca last night.




I found a parade of ants marching along my wall, so I got out the bug vacuum for some catch and release.
