Seattle

Last week we packed up the baby and went to Seattle for a friends wedding. It was so great. The weather was wonderful and the city is surprisingly kid friendly. Nice restaurants comparable to Market street had stroller parking and highchairs. Cole is still restaurant friendly so we were planning on keeping him on our laps but all the places had highchairs. Most of the nice restaurants in Utah don't even do that and Utah is the kid capitol.



Justin did commit petty theft on our trip. When we returned home I noticed he had packed the hotel hairdryer in my suitcase thinking it was mine. We were wondering why our suitcase was heavier coming home and they wanted to charge us 80$$!! for 1 extra lb over the 40 lb limit. (I am NOT a light packer).



We spent a good chunk of the week with our friends Holly and Taylor. She is due in a little over a week to have a baby boy. What a trooper. All the walking and hills, not one complaint. Cole loves both of them, so you might see in a few pic's he is looking to the side - this is because he was looking for his new bestfriends. We had brunch on top of the Space Needle. Fun, good food and a great revolving view of Seattle.

This was the hotel crib. I think it looks like a baby prison, but Cole loved it and slept like a rock like usual. He would pull up and shake the bars making the entire crib move.



Cole on the plane. He looks like he is drunk. Once the engine started the sound lulled him to sleep. Did you know the airport has a family security lane? The regular line was as long as I have EVER seen it. Some nice airport lady ushered us up to the left to the family lane where we got through in less than 5 min. Who knew? Next time you are traveling with kiddo's ask.



The fam down at Pikes Place. Again, Cole looking for his favorite two people.

Looks like fun! I was wondering if you guys used the family security lane and if you boarded the plane 1st. You have to take advantage when you can.

What a fun trip! I can't believe Cole fell asleep on the plane! I wish Cash would do that!! Cole is a doll and you look as beautiful as ever! We need to get together for dinner soon!
