Weekend Update (Visitors!)

My parents were in town for a long weekend! We hadn't seen them since Christmas, but you would have never known by Evie's reaction... she was so happy, cuddly, and chatty. She wanted to hold their hands and have them carry her everywhere. It was adorable. 

It rained on Friday, but we made the best of it and went to the Museum of Flight. It was pretty cool. They had a WWI and WWII exhibit. You can tour the original Boeing building and actually go inside a few of the planes, including an Air Force One (from the LBJ/Nixon era).

We had much better weather on Saturday and Sunday. We went to Seattle to visit one of our favorite restaurants - Westward. Good food, good atmosphere, great views👌 We hung out at Freemont Brewing afterwards. New favorite brewery! They have a kids area! It's genius. Evie loved it.

We went to Gig Harbor on Sunday. We had brunch at Devoted Kiss Cafe then strolled around the downtown area. Evie walked all over. I can't believe the way this girl is moving. She's very busy these days. Fortunately, her grandpa is patient enough to walk up and down the docks with her😂 
Great day in the Harbor
 Blue skies make me so happy
 Evie loved walking with Grandpa

 Again, she wants in the water
 The perfect day
My dad and I went for two runs👊 We had to negate our daily visits to Corina Bakery and all the breweries!
 We run so much better together!
So much food

Weekend Update

Our weekends are becoming continuous walks to the park. Evie's walking is improving each week. She's starting to getting restless sitting in the stroller. Brady's brothers got her a Joovy Tricycoo for Christmas so we put it together this weekend. She did a little better on the tricycle, but she would rather walk.

Weekend Update

We had amazing weather this weekend. It was over 60° with blue skies and sunshine🙌 This taste of spring was a mood booster for all of us. We enjoyed lots of time outside. Evie had a blast!

I feel like we lived at the park the past four days. Evie had fun on the slide and swing set, but she loved the wood chips most of all😂 She would take a few steps, crouch down, pick-up handfuls of wood chips to carry or put into a pile. It was pretty cute.  

Evie took so many steps this weekend! She's officially walking😬 She still falls very often, but she always gets back up to keep going. She's about 50/50 with crawling and walking now.  
 She was thrilled to climb the stairs
 Happy girl
  The swing was a hit
 Olympia farmer's market on Saturday morning
 So many sailboats
 New Moon Cafe was delicious
 Evie loved her french toast, sausage and fruit (i.e. everything)
 Blooms
 Different day, different park
 Watching the big kids
 This picture sums up Evie - crouching, smiling, always handing something to us
 Back in her element
 Nap time!
