All Aboard!

George's third birthday party went off without a hitch!

He was just as excited as we hoped he would be, and with a 3-5pm party time, it was super laid back and fun.

We celebrated over snacks and cake in an old train car, then spent the second half of the party riding in an antique railroad coach from the Snoqualmie Depot to Snoqualmie Falls and back again.

George was greeted by the conductor at the entrance to the train, and to his delight, the man asked him:

"What do I say to get everyone on the train?"

"All Abooooard!"

My boy!

That conductor's hat though  ;)


The train table was the biggest hit

It was so fun and relaxing to spend the day at the Snoqualmie Depot celebrating my little guy, and I know George had the time of his life, too.

Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate - George was one happy boy!!

20 week ultrasound

Yesterday Kevin and I went to our 20 week ultrasound.  Everything looked great and the two questions still lingering in my mind were confirmed. 1) Yes, it's a boy! 2) Nope, I'm not having twins  :) I've heard it a million times: with each pregnancy you pop a little sooner, but when I was in maternity pants at 12 weeks, I thought surely there must be two in there... Here are some pictures, if you'd like to see. During George's 20 week ultrasound Kevin admitted he'd almost fallen asleep, so I will admit: I had a hard time staying awake this time  :) But we did get to see him in 4D ultrasound which we've never done before, so that was really cool. So fun! After our appointment we went to breakfast at Salish Lodge and took my first Month of Bumps picture. (cue shrills of excitement from everyone eager to see belly pics for the next 4 months!) Before taking the picture I (lovingly) assured Kevin that yes, we would be taking...

Merry Christmas!

May your day be Merry and Bright!

A Suburban NYE

We partied hard with neighbors for New Year's Eve this year, and it was perfect - no need to dress up, tackle crowds, or spend big bucks - add to that great friends who are also neighbors, and it's a win/win.
