June 2022! Happy Birthday Me!

Posted on

June was a busy month! I turned "shark-forty" again. We celebrated with cupcakes and presents. I'm pretty sure I got the best presents of all time - Ben and Nora gave me a Darth Vader mask that changes my voice to sound like his AND a super cool Jurassic World dinosaur! For Mother's Day I got a Darth Vader action figure and Lego X-wing, so I'm starting a pretty awesome toy collection :).

This month we took a trip up to Sedona and the Grand Canyon as part of a field trip I was participating in. We also got out to the Odysea Aquarium (finally!). Nora's cracking us up this month by getting some words mixed up. She says "me burn it down" instead of "me cool it down" when she's trying to cool down her food. She also says "tall" instead of "big". "Mom! These shoes are too tall for me!". Haha.

Nora's preferred way to sit at the table (LOL).

Silly Nora. Of all the delicious things on her plate she wanted the kale salad. LOL.

Ben got an easel from one of our neighbors and painted some pictures for us! I believe this was a whale or dolphin (?)
