As it got closer to Nana and Papa’s departure, I had to start shedding the clothing layers. (Shhh…don’t tell them, but as soon as they left, the undies came off, too.)

TRAM SPLASHPAD
We’re in the middle of a Portland-area heat wave, so we went to a splash pad yesterday…with a view of the tram! Can you spot it?
Then when we got home, Papa made me laugh with his funny faces.
DADDY’S BIRTHDAY
Nana and Papa are in town to celebrate the Daddy/Auntie Lisa/Mommy birthday extravaganza. Soooo…of course…I convinced them to take me to Bricks and Minifigs.
Then my excitement about being in my favorite store on earth switched to the disappointment in knowing I couldn’t take every set home with me.
But then I got the fire helicopter and all was good in the world again. Thanks, Nana and Papa!
In honor of the birthday boy – Daddy! – we went out to eat at a sushi restaurant.
All restaurants should have conveyer belts that bring food past your table.
HAPPY EASTER, CUZ
Today is Kenji’s first Easter!
I got Kenji the same stacker toy that was my favorite when I was a baby. He likes it, too!
I also played with a new toy I got myself from the Museum of Flight.
Happy Easter, Kenji!
THE TAYLOR’S VISIT
The Taylor gang visited yesterday! Cousin Kenji is four months old now and very different from the last time I saw him.
Thank you, Aunt Lisa and Uncle Ryan, for making the long trek with a baby (Mommy and Daddy tell me it’s not easy!) and for the super cozy blanket.
And thank you, Nana and Papa, for coming and taking care of Chubs during my surgery and making lots and lots of food for all of us!
AIRPLANE SHOW AND TELL
I showed Nana my Hello Kitty airplane and regaled her with tales of my trips to Russia and France that I made “a long, long time ago.”
PRE-OP DAY
I am having my g-tube placed this morning. So I spent yesterday doing important things, like washing my syringes and looking really cool in sunglasses. Also, during my session with my occupational therapist, I drew my very first person!
MATCHING SHIRTS
Nana and Papa just arrived to take care of Chubs while I’m in the hospital and to help take care of me when I get home. And Papa and I were wearing almost the same shirt! We were even wearing the same pants until I took mine off.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NANA!
It’s Nana’s birthday today. I’ve been told it’s not polite to reveal a lady’s age, but it’s a milestone. So I made her a card. And she got it!
LAKE MEAD
During one of the few windows of rainlessness while in Nevada, we went to Lake Mead to feed the ducks and fish. Even though the carp had gigantic mouths, they were too slow to grab any of the food. Those ducks are fast!
