Sight Seeing SEATTLE

This last weekend our kids went camping with Grandma and Grandpa Morales so Jaime and I (and Tyler) were able to go to Seattle to spend some time with our friends Jeremy and Carina. We had a great time walking around, visiting, playing games, eating great food and hanging out.

This was a huge funnel type exhibit of guitars and instruments at the Experience Music Project (EMP). It was about two stories tall and 700 instruments in all!




At EMP we were able to try different instruments. Lets just say there's budding rock stars in all of us! Playing Guitar Hero definitely helped...





At the Science Fiction Museum we saw so many things and characters that reminded us of our childhood and movies we liked to watch.


Here's to the biggest Star Wars fan I know. Who wouldn't want to meet Yoda!





We spent hours at GameWorks dancing, racing, shooting, fighting, playing instruments. It can get addicting...especially when you win!




We picked the kids up on our way home from Seattle. We were only 20 minutes from home but had to stop for a restroom break for the kids. So yeah, we had to take pics with the dinosaur!


I'd say we all had a great time and made memories forever. Thanks so much Jeremy and Carina!!

    For some reason my blogger didn't update me when you guys posted this. I was wondering if you were going to blog about the trip. It looks like so much fun! I wish we could have gone with you. Another time maybe? Eh? Eh? Seriously, we'll have to plan something where we can all go and have a blast together.

    What a blast! And I think our kids had just as much fun where they were at too. :)

For Unto Us A Child Is Born

On Wednesday December 16th I went to the hospital at 7 a.m. to start my induction. I was already dialated to a 3 and dr. said if I wanted to have the baby I could. I didn't want to be in the hospital or recovering too close to Christmas with my entire family home for the season so I said sure! I was finally underway at 8 a.m. with pitocin. The rest of the morning and afternoon was spent in boredom and watching tv with Jaime at my side. At around 12:45 the dr. came to break my water because that usually gets things going quick. My kids have all arrived shortly after the water breaks. However, since the baby's head kind of floated up he decided to wait a bit to not risk the umbilical cord coming out first or wringing around the baby's neck. Bummer! I was so disappointed. So, on to more waiting, turning up the pitocin...again. Finally at 3:30 p.m. I was having some strong contractions and dialated 5-6. My mother-in-law came to visit at 4 and Jaime told her that it would probab

SURPISE!!!!

Yes, this is true. And yes....this will be our newest addition to the family. You think you're surprised! Just imagine how surprised I was! Big time let me tell you. And in case you are wondering, I am just starting my first week of month number five. Yes, I am in my second trimester already. Hard to believe it's really gone that fast. I haven't been sick at all. It's been very nice. I could easily not know that I was pregnant because I don't feel like I am. This explains why I haven't been sick. It's a boy. I wasn't sick with Aidan either. I kind of figured it was a boy and this morning confirmed that it was. Here's the little guy in action. , We got up a little after 6 a.m. and got ready to head to the hospital. My mom showed up at 6:45 to watch the other three at home for us. Thanks Mom! We got to the hospital and you know the rest of the story there...boy. :) Everything looks to be good from what we saw but someone else will look

The Past Week...

Image
This past week has been a pretty laid back one. I've been getting things done on my own schedule...whenever I feel like it. Haha! Took the boys to the library, I've been making time (a.k.a. not working) to read a book for my own enjoyment, planted some flowers, made a few trips to the park with the kids, done a bit of shopping (grocery shopping at Winco is a lot of work with just me and the boys and I really have to gear up for it.), and I have been playing Sorry and Hi Ho Cherry O with Aidan quite a bit. So I have been busy just not with the normal stuff that keeps me busy on a daily basis.  I love browsing Costco with Jaime and my kids in the evening of a week day. It's not very crowded then. If there's a fun movie on the TVs we like to stop and watch a little. We stopped to watch a bit of the Avenger's in 3D...hence Aidan's glasses. :) I spent a day at Mom's with the boys. It was fun to be there with her and visit and do stuff like we used t
