Chris got a new Etch-A-Sketch type toy and Chloe and Chris played with it for quite a while that day.
The following day, Papa and I jumped in our car and headed north for a few days. We had lunch in Medford with Aunt Wanda, Link, and Papa's cousin Melody. The food was very good and we had lots of laughs before hitting the road again. Our primary reason for traveling was to meet our four month old great-nephew Evan, see his parents, and see my sister, Evan's Grandma, who is helping with childcare for a few weeks. Below is a picture of proud Grandma Jean with her precious Evan (taken a couple of weeks before our visit).
He is a darling boy so full of expression and the ability to look you directly in the eyes with great intensity. Below you see him having fun with his Grandma, also taken a short time before our visit.
His favorite activity is reading books and he concentrates like no other four month old I have seen. Here I am reading him Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? He appears to take in all the details of the pictures.
His first meeting with Great-Uncle Norm....
While in the area, we visited a cute little town of Poulsbo....hadn't ever even heard of the place, but one of the women at our hotel recommended it as an interesting place to see, and she was correct!
We also took a quick morning trip into Seattle, stopping only for our 'fix' of beautiful fresh flower bouquets, hazelnuts, and jerky that we love to purchase at Pike's Place Market.
We returned home on Sunday and I spent a great day with the children on Monday. On Wednesday I got an extra treat to spend time at the park with the three C's while Mommy had an appointment. It was a beautiful sunny day and we all enjoyed it so much.
Whoo-hoo, tomorrow it's Monday again...my favorite day of the week!
