Nana and Papa are currently road tripping their way across the desert. While they were here, I drew a picture of Nana walking Chubs. But I wouldn’t give it to her! So, Nana, you can admire it here.

Happy Halloween! I started off my day with a costume parade at school.

Then it was time to decorate the pumpkin I picked out at Lee Farms.


I helped sing a Halloween song during Circle Time.

And then I decorated my Halloween cookie.


After school, I counted down the hours until evening and trick-or-treating time.



Mom and I came to an agreement that I would be cooperative for one picture (and even wear my popcorn hat), but that she had to leave the camera at home for the rest of the night.

Arghh, I forgot Daddy had his phone camera with him!



When trick-or-treating was done, I immediately got to work on drawing my own custom candy wrappers. And I gave Mommy my candy rejects. (Tootsie Rolls and gum…I’m looking at you!)

Here are some Halloween drawings I made earlier. Happy Halloween!

Thanks for sharing your birthday balloons, Kenji!

Today we left Seattle to come back home, but enjoyed a little morning time with Kenji.

Kenji is my favorite cousin, so I gave him a little kiss.


Kenji really liked his birthday balloons!


Bye, Kenji. See you again soon!

Tuesday was Kenji’s first birthday, but we celebrated at his house today.




I taught him how to draw airplanes.

He really wanted to get into those cabinets!

I think he liked his cake! Happy 1st birthday, Kenji!


Nana and Papa went up to Seattle to visit Kenji for his 1st birthday. Then they came back to see me for a couple of days…just in time for us all to go back up to Seattle for Kenji’s birthday party tomorrow!
So today, we had a chill day hanging out at home drawing, enjoying the sunny weather, telling tales of Mommies and Jokey, and doing jigsaw puzzles on Papa’s computer.


Nana and Papa are visiting the Pacific Northwest for Kenji’s 1st birthday. But before heading up to see him today (happy birthday, Kenji!), they stopped by to visit me!
I was really excited to hug Nana. I think everyone was pretty surprised by what a hugger I’ve become.


Then we sat down to take a look at my maps. We looked at the places that all of the Hardy’s and Ludwig’s were born in. And I regaled them with my story of Mr. Pillow Head’s adventure from Oregon to Georgia.

I love laughing with Daddy while he gets me ready for bed every night. Tonight I yelled, “I’m laughing so hard, I can’t even talk!”



Here is an airport and airplanes I built for a fictional island called Mommies. It’s in the Western Ocean right next to the island of Jokey. There are 1086 airports on Mommies.
