Seattle Visit: Family, Food and Fun

The Whole Gang at brunch on Sunday. Excellent food, only a small amount of said food ended up on Ellie's head.

Wii-ing with Uncle Garrett and Daddy. Auntie Marcie is amused



Auntie Becca and Lillian with Grandpa Mike and Ellie at our zoo outing.





The Carousel at the Seattle Zoo.




Cute outfit from Loridee and the girls. Hanging out in our fabulous hotel room.



Cousins meeting and greeting. We have to protect Lillian from Ellie's effusive interactions.

Oh, I didn't know I kept you both up

Ellie repents for keeping us up. She was so cute this morning. Ian needed to get her attention to stop her from eating paper from the recycling (one of her favorite pasttimes). He said "Eleanor" in his deep serious dad voice, and we swear she said "Yes Daddy?". It was so precious

Really Mom?

This is her "I am rebuking you" face.

This morning is electrifying

Ellie's hair is truly uplifting. She was up from about 230 to 5 am and didn't go to sleep until we went around the block in the BOB at 445. Of course, she was cute as ever when she got up and wondering why Ian and I had bags under our eyes.

Trip to the Zoo

We went to the Boise Zoo with our neighbors, Kristie and Lukas (3) and Autumn (only 5 days older than Ellie). The girls did really well. It's a very nice if small zoo with a lot of interesting conservation and ecology facts for the adults and fun stuff for kids.


Kristie and Autumn.



The only picture I could get of the intrepid explorer, Lukas, while he was taking a photo of the giraffes. He is 3 and has decided he currently does not like to have his picture taken.







Autumn relaxing in the BOB.







Hey paparazzi, I need my privacy.
