Busy couple of weeks

We have had lots of stuff going on. We had some wonderful friends from CA in town, some friends from Spokane visited, we went to downtown Seattle, and visited the tulip fields up north with my Mom. I was also able to squeeze in some time at a community garage sale where I was able to pick some great stuff for PJ.


PJ learning how to climb up his new chair and table, we got this set for $10!


PJ playing on his new slide, I scored this for a whole dollar!


Family pic at the tulips!


Looks at those fields and the mountains, amazing!


Mom and I by the daffodils. So pretty!


PJ seeing the tulips for the first time.




PJ's new favorite toy is his crib! What a monkey!




Downtown Seattle


Flowers from Pike Place, can you believe that they only cost $10, and they lasted over a week!


Parker's over for dinner!


Baby Karston from CA, PJ loved him sooooo much and did very well with him around. PJ is bending down to give him a hug.

Welcome Spring....um I mean Winter

This was a few hours ago right before bed (hence the jammies). The snowflakes were so big that you can see a shadow on my face from one of them.


Our house with 4 inches plus of snow in the middle of April! Can you believe it? As I type I think that it is still snowing!

The Park

Going down the slide for one of the first times. Now he is a pro!


Driving the train!

We have been going to the park a lot more now that it is trying to warm-up. In CA there were few parks where we lived and it was usually too hot for little PJ to be outside but here it is perfect. So far he really likes the slides and swings.

Last weekend we got the kitchen stripped of wallpaper and painted. Soon I will get some pics of the house and the changes we made. We also hung pictures so things are starting to feel a little more like home.
