Our Trip to Lake Chelan

Wayne had a week off in March, so we decided to get away for a while. We discovered one of Washington's treasures in Lake Chelan. It was such a beautiful place to be to relax and unwind. Wayne's parents also came with us to help with Jonah and spend time with us. Here are some highlights of our trip.

Seesaw with daddy and mama.


This is where we had breakfast one day. It is called Blueberry Hills. There are a ton of blueberry bushes in the background of the photo where you can pick your own blueberries during the summer.


We stopped by this Bavarian village in Levenworth, WA on our way home. We stopped and had lunch of German sausages, potato salad and saurkraut. (Jonah says no fair tickling me daddy!)

A visit from Grammy and Great Grandma Green

Last month, we were excited to have Grammy (Kim's mom) and Great Grandma Green (Grammy's mom) visit us in Washington. Jonah enjoyed playing with them and we even got to get away for a night (while the grandmas watched Jonah) at a cozy little house with a hottub on Puget Sound. Here are some pictures of the visit:

Reading "5 little monkeys" with Great Grandma then Grammy.

Jonah loves playing with balls already!


Going out to dinner.

Reading one of his favorite books - Bubbles Bubbles.


Just before bed - Notice sleepy eyes, paci and lamb. He's ready!

It's a Girl!!!



We are joyfully adding a little girl to our family. Our closet has already been loaded with pink and purple from the grandmas and great-grandmas. I can't wait to dress her up in the adorable little outfits.

Jonah points to my belly and says baby. He also likes to hold his hand on my belly, I think because he sees me doing it all the time. I don't think he has felt her kick yet, but he will soon. she moves and kicks and squirms all the time, just like Jonah did. It is an amazing feeling to experience.
