MOMMY’S 40TH BIRTHDAY

Mommy chose a peach cobbler for her birthday treat, but we got a li’l symbolic birthday cake for the candles. Each candle represents a decade!

SKYROCOPTER

Over the weekend, we went out into the 99 degree heat to fly the Skyrocopter that Grandpa got me a while back. It was so hot, we were the only weirdos outside. But when you gotta fly, you gotta fly!

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.

SPRING SKETCHING

When Mommy and Daddy used to take me to a restaurant, they had to bring a bunch of cars, then airplanes, to keep me busy. Now it’s my sketchbook and Crayolas.

REED LAKE

For Mother’s Day, we all went on a hike around Reed Lake, which is on the Reed College campus. I hiked the whole thing, over a mile long!

Here’s the bookmark I gave Mommy for Mother’s Day. She loved it!

MY FIRST MOVIE

I made my first movie on Mommy’s iPhone. Masterpiece, isn’t it?

My First Movie from the Dexter Video Collection.

2017

Today, Mommy continued her quest to take a family picture every New Year’s Day. I was incredibly cooperative and allowed two takes. That’s it! How do you think we compare to last year?
