Bothell Landing
We tried to make the most of the fact that we had to cancel all of our plans due to pink eye and had some family time at Bothell Landing instead. This is a great location because there is a nice playground, some historic buildings to walk around and a cool wooden bridge to get…

Pink Eye Take 2 and a Ladies Night Out
One year and one week ago, we were all hit hard by pink eye. Hard to believe, but even with Cooper out of daycare both he and I are battling it again. Fingers crossed Daddy can stay in the clear. Fortunately I was no longer contagious and was able to attend a fun PEPS ladies…

Gardening Helper and a Tough Nights Sleep
Cooper is definitely at the age where he loves to help with everything and it has been a great test of creativity and patience to figure out how to get him involved in the everyday tasks. Today we tackled getting some new flowers planted in the front yard. Each flower I put out in the…

Whistler
We started off our Whistler adventure with a stop at Boundary Bay Brewery in Bellingham, WA. Here we met up with the two other families we were traveling with as well as some of my college friends, Joel, Denice and Chris Roselli. We marked this visit by picking up a new growlette, perfectly Cooper sized.…

32 Weeks – Hank the Tank
Today we had the 32 week appointment for little brother. Everything continues to look great and move along smoothly. He is now starting to measure big, 33-34 weeks instead of 32 weeks. Looking back Cooper started measuring big at the 36 week mark so his little brother is definitely getting a head start in the…

Preparing for a Snow Adventure

It has been fun to dig out the snow gear and dust off the (airplane building) fiberglass from Rob’s skiing gear. We splurged to finally…

19 Months
Sleeping: Primarily a nap pose, we don’t know how much longer this bum in the air sleeping will last, but we hope it continues for a while. Each day we put him in his crib for 2 naps. For the first one around 9am he talks or fusses nearly the entire 30-60 minutes which is…

Can You Hear Me Now?
Cooper loves to pretend anything and everything is a phone. When the real house phone rings and we answer he will cry until he gets to push the buttons. We have only made a couple of accidental Cooper phone calls to date. Today our little entertainer took it to a new level finding “phones” for…

Botanical Gardens
We met up with the wonderful Mashruwala family to enjoy the last night of Christmas lights at the Bellevue Botanical Gardens. It is one of our favorite places to visit. We even got to try out our new hiking backpack. Thank you, Robertson family!

13 Hours!
Today Cooper woke up at 8:30am–that is 13 hours of sleep. Considering we started the week off waking up at 4:30am, this was a real treat and I believe one of the first times he has slept so long. Daddy did go in at 7:30am to make sure he was still breathing, and we enjoyed…
