Babies for Obama

Avery is growing into quite a Lil’ Dem. He enjoys watching Barack give speeches, and even claps at the appropriate applause points. Recently, he’s been sporting the tee shirt pictured below. Obama/Biden ’08!

Jack Johnson

On Friday saw Jack Johnson at the The Gorge. It was Avery’s first concert and our second time seeing Jack Johnson at The Gorge. We were a little worried about how Avery would tolerate the extra late evening, but he did pretty well. Eventually he got tired and fell asleep on the blanket. The concert was okay. Since we arrived late it was difficult to find a decent place to sit. We were also busy distributing snacks and toys to Avery, making it hard to sit back and relax.

Bad to the Bone

Here are a few pictures I meant to post before I went to Eugene last week to help with the new hospital. I’d like to say I took them, but I think you can see me sitting in the background. Lindsey is also an excellent photographer and she gets big smiles out of Avery.

Hiking Tiger Mountain

This afternoon we decided at the last minute to go for a hike up Tiger Mountain. It’s a short but steep hike up to the bluff where the paragliders launch. Lindsey and I took turns carrying Avery in the backpack. He did pretty well though the backpack must get boring after a while. It certainly gets heavy after a while. At the top there were tons of people milling around waiting to launch their gliders.

The Cornea Edition

Earlier this week Lindsey had LASIK at a place in Bellevue. The whole process seemed amazingly easy. The procedure only took about four minutes, and now she doesn’t have to wear glasses or contacts anymore. So far it’s been a great experience. I might be the next patient.
On the monitor you can see Lindsey’s cornea with the flap folded back.
