Sunday, August 7

Another lazy morning... (Mommy didn't even get dressed until lunchtime!)  We played with your Little People, snuggled, read books, had a later lunch, and you took a shorter nap.  "Buy mower" was your motto today.  You kept saying it over and over, knowing that Daddy had arranged to buy one from a man in Oregon via Craig'slist.  So after your nap, we all drove south of Portland to pick it up.  Titus won't be happy when we use it, but it will make the property seem a lot more kept up.  Since moving in, the grass and shrubs, trees too, have grown a ton!  Next year you and Mommy will plant a garden together... and your sister can hang outside in her pack n play while we create it!
 Daddy showed you how to open 
and close your 'pop up' camper
 Daddy is so kind... he shares his WORK computer with you and lets you draw on the screen with the stylus pen.  WOW!
 I love your snuggles!
 And you also like my tickles!
 
After picking up the mower, we stopped by a park in Lake Oswego.  There were awesome play structures, as well as a kiddie water play area.  You actually enjoyed playing with, and drinking from, the water fountains instead.  And we had a blast on the slides.  Daddy climbed all around with you (and chased you while you explored.)  You sure are active!  
(Getting Mommy's sandal that fell off her foot!)













On our way home, we had dinner at Pizzacato.   You watched Curious George for a few minutes while patiently waiting for dinner.

You were looking pretty serious and sleepy... but after some food and apple juice, you perked right up!
"Pizza" you said... as you nibbled on hummus and bread.  Then you ate two entire cheese pizza slices (minus the crust).  We thought you'd fall asleep on the way home... but nope.  You had fun looking out the window and touching the lawnmower's tire and the flat tractor tire that are both in the back of Daddy's car.  

Right before 9 p.m., we had a quick teeth brushing/hand washing/wipe bath (versus bubble bath), read one of our favorite books (the one Drew gave you for your birthday about being best buddies), and then you went to sleep.  A fun afternoon-evening adventure with you!  Sweet dreams!
