Bapa's new name, a blossoming conversationalist and Father's Day

We've been spending a bit of time at the land we'll be building on. If you ask Piper where the new house will be she say, " by the trees"


Bapa has been called Poppy as of late. We had Poppy and Mimi over for his birthday last weekend for a lovely dinner on the back deck.


What is it about the birthday song that is so scary for a toddler? 


Grandma Sally sent a box of goodies. 


And Piper found the hidden stickers. 


Park time is important these days...


We made the mistake of giving her ice cream last night.


First she thought she could fly, then she crashed into a sobbing mess. The sugar crash is so not worth it.


Piper is talking and relaying information, so be very careful what you tell her! The other day she saw a musician pick up a guitar and she says," me Uncle Michael plays guitar too!" She hasn't seen Michael since Mother's Day. But she had a lot to tell me about his visit. Stories from school, announcing that Mimi peels her apples, monsters in her room...


We went on a hike this morning for Father's Day. Unfortunaly having Josh all to ourselves is a rare treat. But lucky for all of us it was a stunning and spectacular day. Relaxing giggles are the best. Out of the smoke from nearby fires, no bugs... Perfection.




Piper is an incredible hiker. 



We had a picnic and Piper just ran in circles squealing.



Skunk cabbage is AWESOME!



I said, " I love you Piper, so much!" 

And she said, "I love Daddy!!!!!"

I do too sweetie, I do too.
