THINGS I SAY #16
I’m sitting at the kitchen table with a bowl of oatmeal in front of me.
Mommy: Dex, I want you to do three scoops by yourself.
Me: One scoop.
Mommy: Mmm…how about two scoops?
Me: No. Four scoops.
Mommy: Okay, deal. Four scoops.
AUNTIE LISA VISITS PORTLAND
Guess who made a surprise appearance in Portland yesterday? Auntie Lisa! (As well as Uncle Ryan and their friends, Tristin and Kelsey). We went to a restaurant in Northeast Portland called Tin Shed and then, after announcing I was “SO TIRED,” I wandered the streets while Mommy and Daddy tried to get me back in the car.
CRAFT BOX
We unpacked the craft box and I got my markers, crayons, paints, and paper back!
TOOLBOX
Though nothing like my passion for cars, tools are probably my second favorite thing.
PEDIATRICIAN AND THE PARK
Yesterday, I met my new pediatrician, Dr. Cooley. She was a nice lady, but I still made sure to make a dramatic exit by screaming, angrily opening the door of the exam room, tearing off my sweatshirt, and swiftly marching down the hall with no shoes. Then, when asked if I’d like a sticker, replying “NOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
(She is setting me up with a developmental pediatrician, neurologist, and place at the feeding clinic, so Mommy was happy.)
Then we went to the park, even though it was cold and rainy. I was promised the park, and gosh darn it, I was going!
YARDS
Mommy and Daddy have been looking at houses (we JUST moved…do they realize that???) and my favorites are the ones with big yards! I need a yard!
THINGS I SAY #15
I’m playing at the park and it’s cold and windy.
Mommy: Dexy, do you need a nose wipe?
Me: No.
Mommy: I think you do. You’ve got a boogie in your nose.
Me: NOOOOOOO! KEEP IT IN THERE!
CAR CART EXPLOSION
And the award for Best Grocery Store in Oregon goes to…Haggen’s! They have a whole fleet of car carts to choose from, making both Mommy and I happy during our shopping trip.
BEST STORE EVER
I found the best store ever! It’s called Coin Corner and Hobbies in Oregon City. I spent almost three hours playing with cars, cars, and more cars!
