Museum of Flight

Had a fun afternoon at the Museum of Flight with Thao, Tyler, and our fam. The electricity was out, so it was toasty! The kids had fun running around and sitting in airplanes. Afterwards we grabbed some Mexican food and ice cream! Yum.

Chloe's getting so big!

What a big girl. She's starting to smile too! 5 weeks old:

Napping at Zoka

Brian introduced me to a great coffee shop in Seattle, Zoka. It has all the ingredients that make it the ideal place to hang in the coffee Capitol: talented and artistic baristas, good music, dark wood paneling, cool art, yummy coffee cake, and comfy chairs.

Brian is working away while I read my book club book and Chloe naps. Abby is out to lunch with Grandma and Grandpa apparently devouring her fish and chips. It's a sunny day in Seattle - priceless!

Chloe's Details

We have had a number of questions, so here are the details.  A few hours after the action, we have finally had a chance to catch our breaths and get to know our daughter a bit.  She is very curious and loves to suck on her thumb (Abby was never a big thumb fan).  She has all her fingers and toes, weighs in at 8 lbs 4 oz,  was 21 inches long, and is all smiles.  We hope to get a bunch of photos and videos up after a long, well deserved nap for mom and dad.  We also look forward to slowly introducing Chloe to our friends and family after we have had some quality family time.

And last, but not least, we would like to send a GIANT thanks to Cheryl, Amy, Jill, Julie, Tim, Jordan, Allison, & Christina!  You were all instrumental in making today such a wonderful experience for our family.  And a big thank you to everyone else reading along and sending us such positive thoughts.

Welcome Chloe Elise

Transition time

Things are getting very close. Baby's heart beat is good, and Diana is good. I am guessing we will have a baby in the next hour or so.
