Seattle Vacation Success

We got back from Seattle a couple days ago and the visit was an overall success.  Devin was mellow as ever.  Slept or nursed the entire plane ride both there and back hardly making a peep.  We stayed with friends Brian and Bridget (thanks guys!) and their almost 4 month son Owen.  Devin and Owen hit it off from the start.  They even held hands.  Owen let Devin borrow his stuff and how did Devin repay him?  By spitting up on it.  

We got to see a lot of people while out in Seattle.  Thanks for everyone who came out to Lynnwood to see us and Devin.  We miss you all and hope to go back before Devin gets too big.  On Monday while everyone went to work Jeff and I took Devin to Golden Gardens for a view of the sound.  As you see Devin was so excited that he fell asleep.  For more pictures of the weekend click HERE.    

In other news Devin, just this past couple of days since we got back, has honed his hand coordination skills.  I walked into the nursery yesterday to see Devin holding his own bottle sitting on Jeff's lap.  He also has been putting in his own pacifier; but this only works sometimes.  

In pre-children news Logan accomplished a life long goal today.  We were eating dinner in the back yard when he got up and was very very interested in something in the grass.   He sniffed and sniffed and suddenly started to pounce.  A couple of pounces later a black rodant like critter was thrown up into the air - Logan had caught a bunny-like-creature.  (Jeff's theory is that all prey animals are bunnies to Logan.  For example birds are flying bunnies and voles are tiny bunnies.) We think it was a vole but we don't know for sure.   Congratulations to Logan and his first catch.  Of course this means that there are voles in the yard - ewwww.
