Ami really wanted me to take this picture-

A visit to Papa's shop-

Ami's fish torture-

Cranky Day

I got maybe 3 hours of sleep last night. I was cranky.
Ami woke up at 6- three hours earlier than her usual. She was cranky.
Today was rough.
I just couldn't sleep. My body was restless.  I coped by watching a Runaways documentary and daydreaming about decorating my imaginary house.

Fun Days Are Usually Thursdays

We went out to breakfast this morning after we dropped Mike's car off at the dealership.
Ami sure loves her frog...
And bagels with cream cheese.

She also loves her Papa.

After breakfast we went to Michael's to get a few supplies- Blanks, Sharpie paint markers, a sketch book, water colors and brushes.
After ward, we went to the drive thru Starbucks for lunch coffee. There, we got Ami a cake pop.
I think she OD'd on chocolate.

Junkie...

We got home and started unblanking our Blanks.

Mine is the one in the middle.

After dinner, we went to the Dark Park to play.

I'm wearing the shirt I made from Frankenstein Makes a Sandwich.  I wonder if Adam Rex has made the shirts yet... he hasn't gotten back with me regarding it.

We went home, Ami and I took a bath. We watched some Dora and Word World, brushed teeth and read her book choice.

She chose 10 Little Rubber Ducks tonight to read.

I sang Hush Little Ami and Ladybug Picnic a few times and she was out.  

Pretty sweet.

Monday's Doctor Visit

Shots! And blood taken. The doc said she is tall, skinny and healthy! She did so well. I was so impressed.

She got some stickers and band aids. She was having trouble drawing w her robot finger, though.
Her pediatrition is 45 minutes away and as a special treat, we went to the IHOP there.

I love this IHOP. It's really really awesome. It's the healthiest IHOP around. They have whole wheat french toast as an option and the portions for the children menu are normal portions. It's so lovely.

22 Weeks of Ollie

My Birthday Monster!

Currently, it is almost 8 in the evening. I am watching Meaning of Food on Netflix and eating Craig Wedron's baked brie recipe (sans dried cherries) with a wheat baguette.

Currently, I am alone.

I know I'll end up watching RuPaul's Drag Race, telling myself that it is part of my weekend recovery, but I'll know it's a lie.

All week had been preparation for that weekend- Amelie's Birthday party and Father's Day.

Ami started her present for Papa earlier last week... It's a Blank she unblanked.

Ami's stoked she is now in a big girl car seat. She gave Papa a high five.
While we were waiting for Papa at the convenience store, I snapped this...
I tested out cutting fruit leather out with a knife. I used these to top Ami's cupcakes.
Saturday was her Birthday Party. These are some of the cupcakes. I think Jonathan liked them.

A Graziano-Jurgenson masterpiece.

Later on that day, Ami finished Papa's Blank Monster...

Every object and it's placement was her decision.

On Sunday, Papa went to work on Mike's tattoo for a few hours then he came home.

This is the Father's day card Ami decorated for her Papa. I think he liked it.

Then we were off to the Tschirn Fam Father's Day Dinner.

Ami couldn't wait to play outside. I got BITTEN by the squitos when I was down there, so I confined myself on the deck.
Played outside at Trish's after Father's day dinner.

Later, we cooked out at Gabby and Larry's. Black bean cakes and corn dressing, corn on the cob, roasted veggies....

I think Larry and Ami were playing hide and seek.

Now here I am, brie and baguette by my side and yes, I did end up watching Drag Race.
