Fremont Fair

On Sunday we ventured into the city to check out the Fremont Fair. We missed the naked bicyclist parade which was on Saturday, though somehow I think all the crazy costumes would be scary for a one-year-old.

He missed out on an elephant ear.

This guy looked pretty bored in his empty booth.

Point Defiance Zoo

Today we met Scott, Manivanh, Nicole & Andrew at the Pt. Defiance Zoo. Avery didn’t take much notice of the animals, though he did seem to like the monkeys and the walrus. His favorite part was playing in the grass with Nicole.



Hey cuz.

Tired baby.

On Saturday Lindsey went to a baby shower for her high school girlfriend, Laura. We photographed her wedding last summer. She’s expecting a little girl in July.

Seattle Aquarium

Yesterday was a gorgeous day in Seattle, and we had a great time playing in the city. In the morning we met up with some clients to chat about their wedding at Joe Bar. The coffee was phenomenal, and it was a great spot to spend some time hanging out. The only downside was the long line which prevented me from getting a second coffee.
Afterwards we took Avery to the Seattle Aquarium for his first glimpse at marine life. Lindsey and I hadn’t been in years, so it was fun to explore. We ended up getting a membership. We’ll have to take Avery back when he’s a little older.
Finally we met up with some friends and their daughter at a park. It turns out they’re pregnant again with number “last”. Good work guys.

Grammy & Papa Visit – Pike Place

We’ve had Grammy & Papa staying with us for the past week. They’re out visiting from Texas. We took them to Pike Place last weekend. It was extremely busy. Probably one of the last warm weekends we’ll have for a while so everyone was trying to visit the market. We should go back in the winter when it’s less crowded.

Lunch.

Walks: Bellingham and Seattle

Last Saturday we went up to Bellingham. Lindsey went to a baby shower, and I had lunch with Josh. Afterwards we went for a walk down by Boulevard Park. We noticed the old pottery workshop place has been turned into a coffee shop. Looks like a nice place to enjoy an Americano. After wandering around Fairhaven for a while we headed home.

On Sunday we went to Seattle. We stopped at REI to check out some baby-carrying-backpacks. They didn’t have the color we wanted, so we ended up ordering it. Then we headed down to Alaskan Way to take a walk along the water. Avery had to get bundled up with a jacket, blanket, and hat.
