NEW YEARS DAY 2020

For New Years Day, we took a little jaunt to Oregon City.

At Black Ink Coffee, we built a bunch of little LEGO creations.

Then we walked to the record store so Daddy could ask someone about getting his record player fixed.

And then I tried to avoid Mommy’s camera, as usual.

PLAYING WITH KENJI & HANUKKAH NIGHT 7

Kenji and I spent the morning playing at home with everything in my playroom.

Eventually, Kenji found a spray water bottle. We had way too much fun spraying water into a bowl.

Then we went to the playground and had loads of fun.

In the evening, we celebrated the 7th night of Hanukkah.

Kenji got stickers and I got a book and another subway train – the F train!

ROUTINE OHSU VISIT

I had a routine visit with my gastroenterologist and realized this wooden bead toy in the waiting area looks just like a roller coaster!

We were also visited by Groot and Captain America in the lobby!

CHRISTMAS TREE HUNTING

One of our traditions is to find the rainiest day of the month and then go get our Christmas tree. It makes the mission extra special.

I located the best tree on the farm and sent Daddy to work cutting it down.

I also found this cool tree that I could stand under.

After we put the tree in the car, I noticed the farm map!

So then, despite it getting dark quickly, I had to walk all around looking for the douglas, grand, noble, and nordmann firs. I even found a few scotch pines!

MONTSHIRE MUSEUM

I spent the afternoon at the Montshire Museum of Science, where I’ve been once before. But this time, I did all new things.

I got to make a bubble wall…

…and a bubble dome.

I watched air bubbles float up through liquids of different viscosity.

And slid pennies down this huge funnel.

I got to put my hand through fog…

…and put balls through this maze of air tunnels!
