Our week

After a trip to the dog park today, I see this in the driveway (backing out, I hadn't noticed it or we wouldn't have gone). I should add, after hearing all sorts of weird noises on the way home up the hills. And, on the last hill, seen just behind the car, the oil light came on. I'm no mechanic, but it all made sense when I saw the driveway. CRAP! It's been two decades since I blew an engine. I haven't missed it. I guess I'm glad that we made it home: me, a screaming Kat, and the idiot twins. Glad to not have to walk part/all the way home.

I imagine we'll be sharing a car next week. I was pretty cranky about the lack of an engine, but at least it's only 2.5 years old and under warranty (and extended warranty), so I'm not worried about the cost. I hope not to be surprised.

At the Seattle Guatemala adoptive meetup- Kat disrupting 2 unsupervised and eventually really annoying kids' attempt at the game of LIFE. I think she wanted to be the banker. Normally I'd intervene, but they had it coming and I warned them. The game was short lived.

Kat on our hike the other day at Lake Washington. We couldn't find our moms group hike, so wound up at Juantita Bay Park on our own. It worked- there were lots of birds to look at.

Guess who learned the joy of puddle jumping? This was a wimpy puddle, but nonetheless....it needed to be stomped.

This is what happens when I give her the clam chowder to feed herself.....silly me.
