i have been away

i have not been posting lately because i have been away on a trip to illinois. i went to visit uncle andrew and aunt joy. i hadn’t seen them in a while so i decided it was time for a road trip.

road trip./

i’ll post each day saying what we did last week, starting with today and last wednesday. if that makes sense.

wednesday we drove to illinois. this was a lot of time in the car. but it wasn’t all bad, because i had this toy that is normally a table but the top can come off and it makes sounds and flashes lights. even when i’m in my car seat i can kick at it and make it make sounds and that’s fun.

i also napped some.

when we got there i discovered two things about illinois. illinois is cold, like brrr cold. i think this is the coldest i have ever been in my whole life. i know it was drizzling rain [which is not like snuzzling even though drizzling and snuzzling sound like they are related] but still it was cold. also they have a lot of corn.

cold and corn. i think illinois should have some c’s in its name because of that. cillinoics, maybe. the first c will need to be silent though.

that would also make cillinoics come sooner in an alphabetical list of states’ names so i think the people living in cillinoics will be okay with that.

ua was there when we got to their apartment. i played with him some and then aj came home but by then it was just about my bedtime.

Adorable new icon. Aren’t you the cutie? In Tlingit, they call cute little things like you ‘oosk.’

I like your idea about the name for Illinois. You have excellent reasons. I say write the government about it. When you learn to write - oh wait you already can as evidenced by this journal!
