Thoughts on Oregon-

Lilly's thoughts: The car ride wasn't all that bad. I didn't nap much in the car, but looked outside and pointed to all the new things I saw. I liked to wake up around 1am and say, "mama, mama, daddadadadada" because I knew they were in the room sleeping with my brother and I. I usually stayed awake for a couple hours or so. I made a new friend LoLa that I want to play with every week. I liked playing with a girl instead of always just my brother. I kissed all the boys more than once which made my daddy unhappy, but made the mommies laugh. I loved swimming and have no fear when it comes to anything really in life.

Drew's thoughts: I loved swinging at the park everyday and throwing and hitting tennis balls on the tennis court. I also tended to play in the downstairs bathroom toilet water more than once while mommy and daddy were busy talking. I slept through most of my sister's talking, yelling, and blabbering during naps and bedtime. I found out that big boys play with hot wheels and trucks and that all I want to do now is the same. If I could relax in a 100 degree hot tub all day I would, but mommy wouldn't let me. I chased and danced with the other kids, and only bit my sister in the buggy a few times when she provoked me. I had fun with everyone.

Thoughts on Mommy and Daddy: Despite the fact that mommy took a nap everyday, she still was tired at the end of the week. Mommy swam everyday with us and only took her eyes off me(lilly) once which of course ended in choking/throwing up water. Daddy always had fun and loved hanging out with us. He always pulled the buggy and only said his back hurt one time. Daddy and mommy kept us busy and then stayed up late and played games with the other big people. Sometimes they were really loud. Maybe that's what woke us up. We love them anyway.
