lego

Immi and her brother are totally into legos. Ashland keeps grabbing a piece and poking immi with it (I think he wants immi to help him stick it on) but she is too busy building her faery princess castle.

The sun has set, and immi is still playing with legos.

Immi made this diorama type thing — [...]

plastic things

Immi is making a bracelet.

I got out nesting plastic cups that immi used to play with for her little brother. She is far too smart to enjoy nesting/stacking now but she found new use for them! It’s a field of plastic flowers for her twin Hello Kitties to sleep in…or something like that. She is [...]

puzzle

Immi got out this wooden puzzle (I had it put away since it’s far too easy for immi but a bit early for Ashland). Ashland was totally happy about just chewing on it, but Immi showed him how it works and now he is trying to do the puzzle (he is just slamming the puzzle [...]

back to the beach

We were out having our Saturday Coffee yesterday morning…and it was such a *blah* of a morning! When I mentioned this to Todd, he totally agreed. We talked about how some days are just so *blah* and it’s pointless trying to work hard on those days since nothing good will come of it anyways.

So then [...]

park

Immi is playing in the play ground at the Mt. Tabor.

This little mountain is actually a lot bigger (with very tall trees!) than I thought it would be considering it’s sort of in the middle of Portland.

painting

Immi is having lots of fun painting.

Immi going Jackson Pollock on her paper.
Here’s the finished piece. Just so there’s no confusion (i.e. You offer her $8000 for this painted piece of paper — several pieces of notebook paper stuck together actually — and then tell me she didn’t possibly do this on her own, I [...]

We had quite ordinary (though still special!) day for her birthday since we can’t really top going to the beach! Immi had the bestest time with her ice [...]

beach

We are on our way to the beach because it’s almost immi’s birthday and she loves the beach. It’s afternoon, and the drive lulled immi to sleep.

It’s a really beautiful beach, and it’s a beautiful day! We don’t even need a jacket.

Immi is splashing about at the edge of the ocean. I had no idea [...]

playing with toys

I’ve been noticing that immi’s lego creations are, increasingly, showing off both her understanding of ‘real’ world and her creativity. This little truck hardly captures much (her super castle-sanctuary for zoo animals with a flower forest got destroyed before I got a picture!) but I think that it looks a kind of realistic with window [...]

Paper

It’s really nice out and Immi, Ashland and I walking about and wondered into a store called PaperZone. They have lots of office paper, stationary and scrap booking stuff. Immi is having fun at the crayon station.

Saturday

Having coffee at Flying Cat Coffee. Immi, wanted to jump up and down on the couch because her little brother was jumping up and down on his daddy’s lap. So I had to tell her that she is too big for jumping on the couch, but that big immi gets to have a super yummy [...]

museum

We are at the Children’s Museum with our new friend and her 3 year old girl from a meetup group. We wanted to come here while they had Clifford the Big Red Dog exhibit because Immi LOVES Clifford (she is the one who pointed out about this event in the Portland’s newsletter!).
