Squeaker and I have been making the rounds of college graduations this week. An aunt and an uncle for those of you keeping score at home. Sorry about not getting a video posted last week. Whenever I try and tape her talking she gets relatively quiet. The rest of the time she's been full of surprises. 
We went out of our way to make the trip to the first graduation take more than the usual hour so she could get a decent nap. It didn't quite work out that way. She took a while to fall asleep and woke up too early. We then got really lost. I was the driver, the captain of the ship, so it was my responsibility that we got lost. I think my 'little buddy' deserves some of the blame for our 'three hour tour'. When I actually got back on track (and realized that we had gone another 20 miles out of our way) I said that "I'm having a bad day". Squeaker then spent the next ten minutes repeating "Daddy bad day". A few hours later I realized that it was good that I hadn't said "I'm having a bad trip". Squeaker repeating "Daddy bad trip" to people could have had some unfortunate consequences. 
We've also managed another hike. No rain this time either, and Squeaker even did part of the walking herself. She wasn't particularly happy about getting back in 'packback'. She kept up a decent pace, but kept stopping to look at rocks and frankly we would still be out walking in the woods.
Well that's all for now. Enjoy the week.
