Every time I sneeze, Orren screams from across the house, "DADDY YOU OKAY??"
Sometimes that's how I find out he's not asleep yet.

I feel like we could clear up a lot of confusion if we just gave Frankenstein's monster a name.

Orren has decided that he wears a hat now. Always. Specifically, a floppy salmon bucket hat.

Orren is obsessed with buses. Every time he sees one he gasps and yells "it's a bus!" He makes sure that everyone around him knows there's a bus and acknowledges the bus. We saw 9 buses on our ride to daycare this morning and he was ecstatic 🚌

Orren is either playing a very imaginative game or he is actually trying to save me from spectral invaders that only he can see. Either way, nice to be protected.

I'm at the Bruce Vento Elementary School ribbon cutting and my goodness y'all, it's beautiful. Every time the SPPS facilities team updates a building it looks better than any K-12 school I ever attended. So excited for the kids who get to learn here 😃

I hurt myself on the door of my truck. Orren checked to see if I was okay then scolded the truck for hurting me.

Sometimes I ask Orren if he pooped in his diaper. He gives me the wrong answer 100% of the time.

I don't understand the game I'm playing with Orren. I know that I'm supposed to dribble a ball while he uses his toy vacuum cleaner. I know that we're running around a lot. I'm not sure who is chasing who. And he keeps acting like I'm breaking some unexplained rules.
I think he's having fun though.
