Our Weekend in Photo's

This weekend wasn't quite what we expected as our little man's teething illness, became an actual illness complete with a very productive cough, fever, and runny nose. We did our best to quarantine our children, and not share the sick with those at church, or the Point Defiance Zoo that we had wanted to visit. Despite his illness, Finn was really a good sport and we had a good weekend, just a little different than we had envisioned!

Friday night popcorn
On Saturday morning, one of our projects was packing away some remaining baby gear, including all the bottles. It was a bit sad, but we marked the occasion by letting our boy try his first taste of peanut butter. Here was his first bite...he liked the second...and all the rest that followed much more!
We took Finn to the downtown REI to select a much needed new pair of shoes. We had him measured and then picked out a pair with easy access for a more plump foot. Its hard to believe my little baby is in a size 6, the same size as sister! Afterward, we grabbed a latte at Vivace and headed to the Ravenna park to enjoy the 70 degree sunshine.
Addie picked flowers the entire time and filled both her and Finn's shoes with them.
Still drippy
High fives for the Dada
He kept rolling around laughing, blinded by the Seattle sun
We were able to get some work done around the yard. There is always so much to do, it can be a bit overwhelming!

Addie and Shouka ready to help Dad with the picket fence.
She spent both mornings watching her Daddy work, and helping out when possible!
Addison helped me plant the seedlings we grew in our kitchen, and some seeds! We had to send Finn off with Dad as his dirt-eating and rock tossing was not terribly helpful.
Finn worked on his barbeque skills as Daddy cooked dinner on the grill.
He loves the playhouse! (and check out that runny nose!)

  1. Oh my word! My heart is bursting with joy at that picture of Addie and Shouka watching daddy build. I say that gets blow up 8 X 10 and hung at mommy's dressing table (because you know a mommy with that perfect a hubby and daughter HAS a dressing table ;-)) Seriously - captivating shot. There's a whole story there.
