Yesterday was our last day in New Hampshire. It rained in the morning, so I stayed in and played with Duplo blocks and my cars. Then we went to King Arthur Flour, where I tried (and am pretty sure I liked) a maple flavored lollipop. Then I went to Left Bank Books on the Dartmouth campus where I immediately found their stash of cars!
Bye, New Hampshire! Bye, Grandma and Grandpa!
We went back to the beach! This time, I wasn’t as interested in going in the water. But Grandpa showed me how to use my fishing reel on his boat and I played with my cars in the sand. Uncle Mike and Auntie Sarah joined us, too, and Uncle Mike pretended to be a sea monster.
Also, we went out to eat for breakfast and dinner. Not only was I amazingly well-behaved, but I also nibbled on some fruit, Grandma’s pickles, Mommy’s home fries, and Auntie Sarah’s maple syrup. Plus, I succeeded in sucking on a straw for the very first time! I’m not totally sure how I did that, but I’ll work on it again today.
Yesterday, we chilled out. We didn’t do anything special, which is exactly how I like it. I played with my big red car again, some Duplo blocks, and a brand new gold car. Grandma and Grandpa’s house is full of cars!
Wow, what a day in Grantham! We went to the lake and I loooved playing in the water. We got to see Grandpa’s new boat. I helped Grandma vacuum, played in my new red car, and nibbled on some pizza! What will tomorrow bring?

Mom (to me): Hi, sweetie.
Me: Mm, bye, Mommy.
Mom took me to Under The Sea again and I was determined to master getting in and out of the Cozy Coupe. I practiced for two hours and finally got it!
By the way, you’ll notice I’m wearing my I ♥️ NY t-shirt. Well, guess what? I’m headed there TODAY!

Yesterday, Andy and I went to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. First, we played in the “spaghetti” and chased each other around the plaza. Then we headed over to the Boone Children’s Gallery to learn the art of East Asian brush painting. I painted several masterpieces. (Oh, and I tried some of Andy’s gummy bears!)
The last time I had any interest in my water table was, oh, I don’t know, about a year ago. But all of a sudden, it’s wonderful again! I asked Mom to fill up the water bottle about a hundred times so I could dump it in my table. (Sometimes I even made it all the way to the water table; other times, I dumped it all over the kitchen floor.)
Russell’s car is something I think about constantly and talk about at random times. It’s so amazing.
Auntie Lisa got me this awesome VW bus as a thank you for being her ring bearer! Now I have somewhere to go when I need a little “me time.” Thanks, Auntie Lisa!
