7 YEARS OF CHUBS

Yesterday, we took Chubs to Mary S. Young Dog Park to celebrate his 7th anniversary as a Hardy Ludwig. He had a great time meeting other dogs, resting in the sun, resting in the shade, and getting out into the world for the first time since his surgery. You should check out his blog post, too!

Before we left, I had a little fall down. But after half an hour of iPad playing and yogurt eating, I went back to the scene of the crime and nailed it.

Mommy isn’t the only person who takes pictures around here. I grabbed her camera and took these!

ST. HONORÉ BOULANGERIE

Yesterday for Sunday brunch, we went to St. Honoré Boulangerie, one of the first places in Oregon I’d ever been to, more than two years ago.

I am not as cooperative with pictures anymore, though, and try to thwart all of Mommy’s attempts!

How do you like the footwear I chose for our outing?

ST. JOHN’S

Yesterday, we made our way up to a neighborhood called St. John’s. I think it was my favorite part of Portland I’ve seen so far. Or maybe the nap I took in the car on the way up just put me in a good mood.

MILWAUKIE

Yesterday, we headed up to Milwaukie, Oregon on a warm, sunny day. We checked out a little cafe and walked around Main Street. We even found a cool soda fountain, but I wouldn’t let Mommy take my picture there because the ceiling fans were freakin’ me out.

MULTNOMAH VILLAGE

For Grandma and Grandpa’s last day in Oregon, we headed to Southwest Portland and walked around the Multnomah Village area. There was a big toy store with an awesome train set (I’m starting to get into trains now!) and a bookstore Daddy likes. Grandma and Grandpa told me I could pick out any toy I wanted, so I headed over to the ol’ car section and chose a cool gray and orange Porsche 911. And they bought me four new books, too. Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa!

EASTBOUND

Yesterday, we traveled east of Portland to the Columbia River Gorge and hiked at Bridal Veil Falls State Park. I got to see my very first waterfall! Then we went to the McMenamin’s Edgefield hotel to walk the grounds and eat some lunch. Chubs and I were sooo tired when we got home.

NE PORTLAND

EASTER WEEKEND

The Easter Bunny visited our new home in Oregon and brought me a basket of surprise eggs and Shopkins (which I’ve had a mild obsession with on YouTube). But my favorites were the eggs filled with (come on, we all know)… CARS!

Mommy and I also went back to Maddax Woods for a picnic and egg hunt – but this time, we brought Daddy and Chubs!

And thanks to Nana and Papa for the Easter candies and chocolate bunnies!

HILLSDALE FOOD PARK

Yesterday, we left the suburbs and headed into Portland. Mostly, we just drove around to check out different neighborhoods. But we had to stop off at a famous Portland food cart pod! I even left my mark on one of the picnic tables.
