March 2019

We loved Fort Warden so much we went with back and brought Andy with us.  Andy had never been on ferry before and was excited! We had lunch, explored and played on the beach.

We met up with my sister Peggy, for a little hike another day and had all the cousins (minus Jack) together to play.

Penny died and Andy had to carry her until she came back to life

Charlie Turns 1!

Its hard to believe that Charlie is 1!  It was such a fast year, and I'm sad its over!  He is so sweet, funny, and brings so much joy and love to our family.

Last picture before he turns 1

He had a little photo shoot with our good family friend, Tami.

We had little birthday party with our family and he had a good time eating cupcakes, playing with his toys and being loved on by everyone!

Tuckered out

His one year check up went great and we are so grateful that he overcame his health issues, and is perfectly healthy now.

February 2019

We had a 2 crazy weeks of snow, and Ellie and Andy only went to school 3 days during it!  The girls had so much playing outside with all the neighbor kids, but I was pretty happy when the snow finally melted and we got back to our normal drizzly February weather.

Valentines day was nice with a few treats and surprises for the kids and nice dinner for Andy and I.

Happy Galentines!

For Presidents Day we met up with my sister and did the Great Wheel in Seattle and walked around the waterfront and had lunch.  The kids all had fun together, and Charlie loved looking out the window of the Ferris wheel.

We also went to Fort Warden with my mom and explored the WW1 fort.  The kids had a great time, and loved the ferry ride home.
