Spring is here

So what do we do? Green Lake of course.  We made it a quarter of the way around before Deven decided it was time to go back to the play ground.  That was fine by me as my stomach is still pretty sensitive after the surgery.  A successful outing including our first public feeding for Tova.  She is not distracted by anything including a playground full of screaming children.  Good girl!!
Note I said a successful outing...the trip home was a different story and does not include pictures.  Picture in your mind a crying hungry and sleepy toddler, a sometimes crying and hungry infant and two grown up size head aches.  Remind me to bring snacks for the toddler next time.  I still think the trip was worth it but I think we paid for the fun!  ; )

Mother's Day 2011

We may be starting a tradition - for mother's day #2 (see mother's day #1 here) we visited the Pike Market for a cappuccino, croissant and bread for dinner at Le Panier. After a fun walk and a few impulse buys at the book store and dried fruit stand we headed over to Green Lake to play at the play ground. It as a huge sand box but Deven really just felt like sitting in a small little corner of a boat in the middle of the sand box. We couldn't even persuade him to play on the slide. We were all grateful for the sun shine and finished up our morning with pizza for lunch and a nap for EVERYONE including this momma.

Green Lake

We have been headed down to Green Lake a lot lately for fun on Sunday's. Here are some fun pics of play time.

Mother's Day

I know I am a little late in discussing mother's day but oh well! We had a great day, Deven let us sleep in until 8:30!! We decided to head to GL for a walk around the lake. Nick and I realized that we hadn't done this yet with the new stroller. Deven played in the grass for the first time, which is strange given that we have a yard but I guess we just haven't had the chance or rather the NW weather hasn't really allowed! Here are some fun pics Nick took! Notice the Mohawk courtesy of the sun screen acting as hair product. Oh and he really is that pale...just like momma and dadda!!

After a stroll around the lake Nick and I decided it was Popsicle weather. Deven got his first taste of strawberry Popsicle (don't worry it was 100% fruit and even had big strawberry chunks). Funny boy, he started laughing at it! The coldness made his mouth cringe but he just laughed and went back for more!

After GL we had soccer so back we went to Everett where we met up with Aaron who looked after Deven for us. I got my second ever goal! It sort of just rolled in but it went in none the less.

Nick went all out for a mother's day gift and created a scavenger hut. I had to run around the how reading clues that incorporated fun facts about our 10 years together. He only had to help me once. At the end I found a basket filled with goodies any lady (mom or not) would be grateful for. It include wine, new stemless wine glasses, chocolate, a nordy's card and a few other things that are none of your business!

I had a great day and just couldn't be happier with the life Nick and I have. I am so proud!
