Dude!  Why are you waking up at 5:56 a.m.????  Even when you go to bed between 8 and 9 p.m.  Since we were up soooo early, we got showered and headed to The Children's Museum in Portland.  (Mommy's new phone is a little slow on the shutter speed and you were racing all around and playing, so some of these pictures are a bit blurry.)  

You shopped in the grocery store, cooked some grub in the restaurant, inspected the house being built, worked at the veterinarian's office and washed a couple doggies and gave a bunny a check up.  Also, you drove a bus and ambulance, played with trains, and loved the water area.  So much to see and do, we didn't even do it all!


Checking out your grocery item... an egg.  It even beeped when you ran it across the scanner pad. Coooool!

 This may have been the first time you've seen one of these phones.  I don't remember the last time I saw one!

 What's on the menu little man?

 Giving a doggie a bath...

 "Va Va"... no water coming out of that hose.

 Taking a call about a pet and inputing data into the computer...

 A waterfall!

Driving the bus with another guy...

 Nice job buddy! 

 You kept saying Bamma (Gramma) when you were driving the ambulance.

 Trains!

 Brushing the crocodile's teeth... then you used the massive toothbrush to do your own.  Yeck!

After almost an hour of play, you were in tears because you didn't want to leave (so happy you enjoy playing there!)  

On the way home, we hit traffic from an accident by the airport.  You slept for about a half hour (nnnnnnnnn-ooooooooooooooooooooooooo!)  

AND... you refused to nap at all today.  Wow... that's a long day with no snooze, for both of us!

 So much going on with your sleep these days.  And nothing has changed as far as our routine.  Sooooo, after you fought sleep and kept coming out of your room for an hour and a half we went read more books, played outside, had a bath, played outside again, watched Curious George, and are outside at this moment.

 You are a great washer of your body!

 "Dry"

as you said (to dry the bathtub bubbles?)

 A bit too cool to play with the hose today...

Nice haircut!  Mommy did it yesterday.
