Busy Weekends

All of our free time these days is filled with getting ready to move, saying goodbye to friends and family, and tying up last minute things/appointments/projects.  Allen and I are working till the end so that doesn't make it any easier.  Ha ha!  Last Saturday we ventured down to Portland to say goodbye to some of my family.  We were greeted with nice sunny weather so that we could picnic at the park on the water.  We also took Esme to the Children's Museum for one last adventure and Chan Chan was even able to enjoy it this time.  Since Allen was busy with Esme and I was busy with Chan we didn't take a whole lot of pics on this trip.  Oops!  As much as we'll miss all of our family down there I sure won't miss that 3 hour drive!  

On Sunday we had more nice weather in Seattle too.  Esme woke up and said, "Mom!  It's like summer outside!"  She was so excited to bust out her tank tops and play in the cul-de-sac!  She got to ride on her bike and then also enjoyed being pushed and pulled around in her old wagon with Chan.  

Unfortunately Esme must have picked something up over the weekend because she ended up staying home from school today with croup.  So far Chan seems okay even though he slept an entire 13 hours last night!  I hate to jinx us but he's been sleeping through the night for almost 2 weeks now.  Strangely though I've been just as tired if not more since this happened but I think that's from all the stress of moving.  If it's not one thing it's another!  I just keep telling myself, "in less than a month we'll be in Hawaii, we can do this!"
