Play Ball!

We made our annual trip to Safeco Field for Opening Day (or almost opening day in this case) last week. It was Luna's first trip to the ball park and a Major League Baseball game and I think we've got her hooked. While she couldn't enjoy the garlic fries or $9 beers, Luna was stoked to be at the game to watch Griffey's 400th home run and see Ichiro hit a grand slam. Despite the fact that game started around her normal bedtime, Luna stayed up the whole time and was charming everyone around us (even the FSN cameraman).

Get Better Uncle Bob

Bob was in the hospital again this week and we made it over for a couple of visits. Luna did her best to cheer up Bob with her sweet smile and infectious laugh. We hope you're feeling better soon Bob!


Cutest Baby Ever

Okay, so I know all parents are convinced that their kid is the cutest. Here are a few recent shots that make me think Brian and I have a contender.

Nothing says cute like food on the face, right?

Easter lunch

Luna and I made the trip down to Redmond to visit Uncle Ken, Auntie Steph and Grandma Larson for Easter. Luna charmed Grandma and was the center of attention for most of the afternoon. No eggs yet, but just wait until next year girl!

Grandma Rex Ann comes to visit!

Brian's mom took the train up from California this week to visit Luna for the first time since she was born. What a treat! Luna wasted no time impressing Grandma with all her new skills and had her ready to move up to the cold north within minutes of stepping off the train. Brian, Grandma and Luna spent lots of quality time together and even made a trip out to see the tulips (or what there was of them). Here are some of the highlights from the visit.

Busy Bee!

It was my Spring Break this week, and Luna and I kept ourselves quite busy. We made lots of visits to friends (thanks Ellie, Crystal & Syd, Susan & Maya, Rachael, Anika & Morgan), got out for several walks, and even tried some new food. Here are some pictures from our adventures this week!
