Yaya's new favorite game


Yaya, Linden's cherished Lion, made a bold move today down at Wally the Bally, our neighbor's tetherball. Go, Yaya! Hit that ball!

Swim Lessons

The girls are taking swimming lessons for the first time--Goldfish class, hurrah! They have been practicing their kicks, and also practicing not getting out of the pool when the class ends. Why let a good thing come to an end? This is the philosophy I'm trying to beat. Good luck, me.

Riding Ribsy


Beverly Cleary grew up in Portland and there is a park which has some groovy bronze sculptures in her honor. Here is Linden riding on Ribsy, something I'm sure we all wanted to do at some point in our literary lives!

Summertime



Linden is such a big girl! Loving a cup of kombucha at Nonny and Poppy's house!

Ione's new doll: Originally Baby Seatbelt, then Baby Vanilla, finally Baby Penelope. We sure hope this one sticks.
