Mariana, Nick and Cece sent this to Jaedyn when she was first born! So cute!
She is learning to 'pout'
HiiiYeah! Holly wins this round.
I love Jaedyn's pre-cry face... and Holly is just hanging out.
Jessey is interesting and he let's the baby pet him.
You can see her favorite toy in the background. I'm not sure exactly what it is supposed to be but we call it her toothbrush.
Jaedyn's first time on a swing. She LOVES them!
The Locks.
Salmon in the water.
Good picture. With a wild salmon!
The flash is not always a good idea.
Fish eggs.
Cool, huh?
Flowers at the arboretum right by the locks.
What is Scott eating?
Artichokes.
Is this a weird flower or what?
I think it's a rose.
inside the rose garden
I don't know what this is called, but I like the plant.
and these lilies
I thought they didn't have these up here.
Magnolia Trees!
The beach a t Golden Garden Park. Notice anything unusual?
The beach is SAND! I also like that this is the best picture of the mountains in the distance that I have been able to get from anywhere in the state.
Greyson's birthday.
opening presents
Opening OUR present to Grey.
He spent all evening playing with it.
Pirate window stickers.
Yummy birthday cake.
At Snoqualmie Falls, we got the great idea to safety pin her hat to her clothes so it would not fall off.
The water is COLD.
Scott was fascinated by the sparklies in the water. Jaedy was fascinated by the sparkly water.
The fantastic pinned hat trick.
The actual falls
At Greyson's baptism.
I tree growing from a stump.
We went to Mt Rainer after the baptism.
Glacier washout river thing.
clean water and glacier water mixing.
The sun is really bright.
AH... if we face away from the sun, Jaedyn will open her eyes. But we still need our sunglasses.
I like this picture.
Cool trail.
Temperate Rain forest.
We liked the walkways. They are just logs cut in half, not sanded or anything.
Cool rain forest plants
Scott noticed how I'm never in the pictures. So he handed off the baby and took one of me and Jaedyn.
Another tree growing from a fallen log / stump thing.
This park was in the middle of NOWHERE! See where we had to go down to one lane because the road fell off the side of the cliff!!!
And the two way - one lane bridge to get there.
It is a long way down from the bridge.
We were at a craft store the other day and saw this cute ladybug hat. so we had to do photos with it.
What a cutie! But do I detect a hint of the Ogzewalla lazy eye?
Getting pictures of Jaedyn's first tooth.
going on a family bike ride.
Someone has been chewing on EVERYTHING now that she has a tooth!
This is why we don't allow her to touch her face while she eats.
Bellevue Arts Festival.
They closed off a street in downtown Bellevue and had boxes of chalk sitting out for kids to decorate the street with.
Cool copper vase holders... Steph and I decided we could make this.
In the mall was an origami guy. folding sheets of butcher paper.
Butcher paper origami snail.
more origami on display
They had an origami table set up by the butcher paper folding guy. It looked like so much fun. I can't wait for Jaedyn to be old enough to do this kinda stuff.
Marble sculptor dempnstrating how to sculpt. I was fascinated.
Cool things.
picture in focus.
My plants are blooming again!
In the many stages of bloom.
At the park for Jaedyn's half birthday party.
Jaedyn and Uncle James. Without him, we never would'a moved to Washington.
Half Birthday Party!
Jaedyn spots the cake.
DAD LETS HER EAT IT!!! AAAH! She has only had baby food until now.
