Seattle, March Madness, & 7 month milestones

We spent a few weeks in Seattle during March for Trav's work and fell in love with this beautiful city. Trav has been working 60+ hour weeks and so we didn't get to explore much but here is what we did do...

Taiya turned 7 months old on the day we flew out to Seattle.

Famous fish market

Walking to the market


Inside Pike's Market... They have fresh fish, fresh flowers, and lots of fresh seafood everywhere!!

The streets outside the market are also lined with lots of cute little stores that sell everything from fresh fish and chips to cheesecake and homeade cookies.


View looking out over the Puget Sound

We ate dinner on the pier a couple times

One of the best dinners was at the Crab Pot


This is the first time Taiya figured out how to get up from her belly onto her knees!


She loves having her back, her belly, her face, and her arms tickled!

While we were in Seattle I had plenty of extra time on my hands and so I decided to read and practice more photography and photoshop... so excuse the bizillion pictures of Taiya... I'm practicing ;)




Tie Chair. Love this thing. Fits in the diaper bag and saves us from having to haul a high chair around. Buy one at http://www.tiechair.com/

Favorite spot. To watch the rain... every day.


Taiya loves helping with the laundry... especially unfolding it!

We also took a ferry out to Bainbridge Island. The view of the city from the water was stunning!

Bainbridge is the cutest little town! Its just tiny but it looks like something out of a storybook.

The very best part of the island though was Mora's Creamery. They had the best (homeade) ice cream either of us have ever had. Mmmmm... amazing! Their Swiss Chocolate ice cream is to die for- and I don't even like chocolate ice cream!!!

The ride back on the ferry.


More practice :)

Taiya is so into drawstrings, buttons, zippers, and especially jewelry!!

This little girl still loves playing peek-a-boo... she never wants to stop. She kept playing with her pj shirt so I finally tied it around her head to distract her. She sure thought that was funny!


Trav drove home and Taiya and I flew home on the 18th. This is flight #4 for this little girl... good thing she is such a good little passenger!

Trav got to go to the Sweet Sixteen and Elite Eight games that were in Salt Lake this year. He had a great time!! Sorry no pics... boys don't think about that kind of stuff usually.
