John quoting Nick Wilde in Zootopia: "It's called a hustle, sweetheart!"
Thu Sep 01 2016 12:39 Little Hustler:
Sienna: Don't call me Hustle!
She went on Splash Mountain with John for the first time yesterday (yay 40 inches!). She said it was "too splash" and now she is telling me about how Judy Hopps (the rabbit character from Zootopia) was stuck. Also, she calls her "Hopps Hopps" ("Officer" Hopps). Sat Sep 03 2016 08:00 Too Splash:
More Sienna Zootopia funnies.
I felt like a space age parent feeding two of my children food from pouches at the same time. Sun Sep 04 2016 15:53 Sacrament Thoughts:
Someone in Utah should, instead of participating in an MLM, market a portable baby-proofing cover for hymn book pockets.

35 is probably mid-life for me. I think I am done with accomplishments. I made four wonderful children, I just need to finish them off, and that's all the mark I plan to leave on the world. The next 35 are for fun! Thu Sep 08 2016 10:56 Mid-Life:
When I turned 30, I made a list of thirty things I had accomplished in my 30 years. I remember starting the list several months earlier in Goa, in the resort pool, alone at night, John back in the room with the (two) kids. I'm in a different place now, physically of course, and in many other ways.
Actual lyrics: spiraling in frozen fractals all around. Tue Sep 13 2016 18:46:

Wow, it's really easy to fake enthusiasm over text. I just forced myself to use an exclamation point instead of a period. Instant perceived joy!
Sun Sep 18 2016 22:02 Jack, the Pumpkin Pie:
Sienna watched The Nightmare Before Christmas today and sang "Christmas Everybody sing to the pumpkin pie!"
She also refused to enter the McDonald's play place until John came in because it said she needed a parent. John: "The first thing she did was read the rules." Tue Sep 20 2016 21:13 Rule Bound:
Maggie at Mt. Hood, was quite upset that we said Dalton was 7 so he could go on the zipline. "I feel like going back up there and telling them Dalton is 6."
Fri Sep 23 2016 13:06 To Sum Up:
I spent two hours at the pediatric ophthalmologist with a sick, teething baby, on day 10 of a nursing strike. That is all.
