Seattle Part II

The Sunday after we arrived was a very happy day for Grandma Julie! She was finished with her antibiotics and got to see her baby for the first time this trip!

We went to a consignment shop to look for a car seat and Ez found the barbie piano. She is going to be like Grandma Jill and play the piano!

Grandma LOVES her baby

We spent some time on the hill (Grandma Mardine and Grandpa Wil's home) too.

The next day was very exciting for Esme! She got to meet Mommy's friend Michelle and her daughter Avery, Uncle James and Grandpa Gordy!

Uncle James was very excited!

We met Avery, Michelle and Jamers at a park in our mutual hometown of Lynnwood. Avery was about 11 months and Ez was almost 7 months. They may be be more than four months apart but they are about the same size. Aves is tiny and Ez is a monster! How cute are they?

Matching diaper bags, pig tails and majorly cute babies!

Avery is unbelievably adorable.

And so is Ezzy...

Grandpa Gordy couldn't wait to meet his first granddaughter! He hasn't spent much time around babies and he was a little nervous but it all went smoothly. Ez had fun sitting on his lap and playing with the buttons on his overalls and his remote control. He was smitten!

The next day was Grandma Julie's 44th Birthday!

It was a very eventful day! We had family pictures taken and then went to dinner at our family favorite, Tampicos. They have the best Mexican food around. Esme got grandma a humming bird feeder for her birthday and grandma loved it.

Here is a sample of some of our family pictures. We had family pictures of Stephen, Ez and I, three generation pictures with my mom, Ez and I and then I had some pictures taken of Chloe, Esme's cousin, and Ez.

We are very happy with how they turned out even though Ez decided not to smile that day. She was more interested in the sand, beach grass and all of the things she had never seen before than she was in smiling!

The birthday finale- Grandma was laughing very hard at this point.

Esme met so many people! Next on the list was Auntie Megan and Justin. We had a nice dinner at a restaurant by their apartment on Queen Ann Hill.

Esme loves animals but their rescued dog, Penny Lane, wasn't so sure! She would inch toward Esme but was keeping her legs on their sofa for safety! Very cute!

The next event was dinner with Grandpa Dave, Grandma Vicki, Bill, Audra and their son Reed.

We had fun playing on the gold cart and enjoyed a beautiful steak dinner!
