June started out gloomy, and stayed that way for most of the month.
When it rained, we got in some umbrella practice. Do you like my fobby pajamas?
Round 2 with Lucia and Eloise. Spent barely 2 hours there, and we're on the verge of passing out! Guess we're not as young as we used to be.
They have jobs and don't need to wear diapers. Actually, I think the bald one still needs them.
I also went on a bunch of playdates with my valley friend, Hannah.
In July, LA became a sweltering desert, so we dressed accordingly:
After defeating the Nazis and recovering the Ark of the Covenant, we celebrated by going swimming:
…then caught up on our summer reading:
Then we wrapped up July with a visit to Travel Town to check out the trains:
August is upon us, and we've been getting back to nature.
Went hiking with Christian at Griffith Park. It took us 45 minutes to walk about 40 feet. It didn't help that we picked up every stick and pebble along the way.
Went to the beach at Palos Verdes.
Gregory showed me how to fly a kite a la Charlie Brown:
…and Emily picked out hermit crabs from the tidepools for me, which I promptly returned to their habitat.
Pal Dylan and his mom, Heseon, beckoned me further out into the water, but I refused. I'm a toddler. That's what we're good at.
And lastly, papa keeps mumbling something about a thing called the "economy" going into some place called the "shitter". I don't know what he's talking about, but he said we might all be living in cardboard boxes under the freeway soon. Sounded fun to me, so I thought I'd get a head start:
Oh yeah, before I forget, papa and mama also keep telling me that I'm going to be a "big sister". I have no idea what they're talking about. They're turning into crazy people. All I know is that mama is constantly tired and eating a lot of Subway sandwiches. And they keep shoving this picture in my face:
And papa's a lot grouchier than normal, I wonder if this has anything to do with it?….
