Mommy is trying to put me to bed, but I’m having a hard time sleeping.
It is 9:15 pm.
Me: I’m starting to get sleepy. I’ll be asleep soon.
It is 9:30pm.
Me: I’m falling asleep.
A pause.
Me: I’m asleep.
A pause.
Me: I’m dreaming of stripes.

MASTERPIECES: COATS EDITION
Daddy and I have a running joke that he doesn’t like stripes, so all I do these days is draw coats with stripes on them, just to make him crazy. I don’t know why I love drawing coats so much. But I do.
DECK LIFE
Our deck is a scorcher in the afternoon, so I only go out wearing Mommy’s deck sandals. (I have my own, but why would I wear those??)
Just hanging out with Hugs on the deck stairs. Perhaps, I will one day set foot in our yard. We’ll see…

LAZY INDEPENDENCE DAY
A perfect holiday: staying home, wearing pajamas all day, shooting water guns, and looking at maps.
BYE, NANA & PAPA
I think I wore out Nana and Papa. Thanks for the visit!
EASTSIDERS
Nana and Papa made a visit our way and we took them across the Willamette River to the east side of Portland. Our first stop was a restaurant called the Tin Shed, where we had to wait a long time, even though it was a Thursday.
Then we went to the playground at Laurelhurst Park.
Before heading home, we stopped to see the ducks at the Laurelhurst Duck Pond.
By the end of the day, Chubs was ready for a nap!

THINGS I SAY #73
It’s the morning and we’re about to have breakfast.
Daddy: Dex, do you know where the coffee scooper is? I couldn’t find it last night.
Me: Yeah, I put it in the freezer.
A little bit later…
Daddy: Sharon, I can’t find Chubs’ medicine.
Me: That’s because I put it in the spice drawer!
