Sorry I'm a bit slow on blogging these days. We have a moving/non-sleeping boy on our hands which makes it difficult to get much done these days!

Our next stop was Scarsdale to see Grammy Mary and Pop Pop. I like this photo of Evan and Pop Pop because they both have smiling blue eyes. In this photo we were eating sushi with Leslie's father.

It was wonderful to see Grammy and Pop Pop, some of their friends, Lainie and the boys, Petra, Michaela, Nadja, Michael, and Tom. Thanks for the hospitality!

Our next stop was Albany to see Grammy Jane and Uncle Pete. We enjoyed dressing Evan up in his first costume (thanks to Leslie and Ebay). He made a very cute black cat for about 15 minutes. It was great to see Grammy and Uncle Pete was very good at entertaining Evan with peek-a-boo.

We've been back for over a week now, but returning to our new "normal" is taking some time! (so is downloading all of our photos!) So, slowly but surely I wanted to share with you our photos from our travels.

Our first stop was Berea, Kentucky where we went for our dear friends, Jeff and Ashley's beautiful ceremony. It was great to be there, see them, and see other Appalachia Service Project folks. I miss all those wonderful people and wish we could have spent more time with them. Mostly we were all wrangling kids and it was hard to truly catch up. Gone are the days when we used to admire each others Birkenstocks, sing and play guitar, and discuss poverty and homebuilding...perhaps those days will return when the kids are in college???


My best to you all in Eastern Kentucky and the others scattered here and there. Come visit us in Seattle sometime!

It's a weekend of baby bootcamp here at our household! And we have forward movement!! Evan has been practicing crawling for at least a month and he's so thrilled to be mobile. It's not your typical crawling but sort of slow leap frog movements. So fun!

Baby, it's cold outside!

Heather's mom has a friend that made this matching sweater and hat for Evan. We're so glad that it fits right now because it's gotten chilly here. And look how cute he looks!
