CASA VACA TAQUERIA

Over the weekend, we went to Portland for brunch.

Daddy was so hungry, he tried to eat my head.

I was tasked with the important job of putting Daddy’s creamer in his coffee.

I did great!

Then we decided to point at our breakfast burritos.

Brunch ended with some riveting conversation, probably about LEGO…

…or airplanes.

Then I was left to pay the bill, as usual.

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!

POST-OP APPOINTMENT

Yesterday, I went to Doernbecher Children’s Hospital for the first time in almost two months. Mommy learned how to change my g-tube button. I was a super brave kid even though it felt really weird to have it taken out and put back in.

The best part was that I got the new tram sticker!

PLANTING SEEDS

Yesterday, I hung out with some other kids in Portland to plant seeds in the wet and cold.

Here I am with my cup of dirt.

This is my official announcement of my soon-to-be cucumber and squash plants.

Then I walked back to our car in the pouring rain.

OMSI

I had some awesome Daddy and Me time at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry over the weekend. We went specifically to see the USS Blueback because I’ve become really interested in submarines.

Here I am steering this puppy!

The bunks are super small!

After our tour of the USS Blueback, we also saw a LEGO exhibit. And I found out I’m 98 LEGO bricks tall!

G-TUBE SURGERY

I am now the proud owner of a g-tube. We checked in at Doernbecher Children’s Hospital at 6am on Thursday morning. By 9am, I was a tubie.

When I got to my hospital room, I practiced feeding my g-tube baby.

Daddy practiced feeding the g-tube baby, too.

That day and night, I tried to walk around, but it was not so fun. So I hung out on my bed and played with cars and planes.

The next day, I was afraid of walking around. So the nice ladies at the hospital lured me out with the promise of Legos and airplanes. After that, I just wanted to wander around and play in the playroom.

After I was discharged, we rode the tram!
