  • Every Little Bit Helps

    Every Little Bit Helps

    Although shopping is not one of my favorite activities, going to Target for necessary provisions is a helping adventure.  This place has the most stuff I’ve ever seen; they have everything you need, and everything you don’t, but still get anyway.  I like the parking garage, elevators and escalators, and the shopping carts to ride [...]

  • Going Camera Crazy

    Going Camera Crazy

    My favorite electronic non-toy toy is a camera.  DaDa made the mistake of allowing me to take a picture with his camera, because now I’m hooked.  Rah-Rah tried buying me a camera that’s made for kids, but I’m not interested.  The kids’ version has a tiny screen, but makes funny noises when I press buttons.  [...]

    This Place is Sense-ational

    This week I went to the Chicago Children’s Museum at Navy Pier, where all my senses went berserk.  I like a place where “no” and “don’t touch that” are not the operative words.  There are so many things to touch, look at, and hear at this museum that my senses were overloaded, and I didn’t [...]

    Summer Isn’t a Bummer

    Where am I going?  Anywhere outside; lots of different parks, Lake Michigan’s beaches, spraypools, picnics in the grass, visit the animals at the zoo.  The summer months go by so quickly where I live, that most people take advantage of all things summer and spend a great deal of time outdoors.  Unless it’s raining, in [...]

  • Green Da Day

    Green Da Day

    When Rah-Rah took me to the store to buy a Father’s Day card for Da-Da, I discovered that fathers are associated with neckties, drinking beer in reclining chairs, mowing the lawn, dogs, kings, grilling, and golf.  After Da-Da opened his card, (I chose one with a dog fetching a newspaper) he told me he was taking [...]

  • Action+Reaction=Satisfaction

    Action+Reaction=Satisfaction

    When I’m having a bad day, I like to throw things: toy balls, tantrums, and even my trucks.  Sometimes I throw an object because I’m mad.  One time I threw a toy because I wanted to know what it felt like-it was exhilarating!  Other times I’ve thrown something just to see what the reaction will [...]

  • Line in the Sand

    Line in the Sand

    A couple months ago, on a whim, I told Rah-Rah and Da-Da that I wanted to drive the car.  This impulse crossed my mind for no reason at all, and I did not analyze the practicality behind my mission, I was determined to drive the car no matter what.  In fact, I insisted and persisted. [...]

  • Cut Me Some Slack

    Cut Me Some Slack

    I started having a hunch early in the week that Rah was up to something.  We made our usual trip to the library to exchange books, when I noticed that half of the new tomes were about grooming: washing and cutting hair, bathing, and why I should be convinced that these things are good.  Then [...]

  • An Infectious Gift

    An Infectious Gift

    This week we didn’t go anywhere really special that’s worth mentioning.  Rah wanted to take me to the zoo to try and see a mama and baby animals, but that didn’t happen.  Instead, Rah got an early Mother’s Day surprise:  she got sick.  It wasn’t the special present she was hoping for this year, but [...]
