Seattle Trip- Friday

Friday in the morning we went to the childrens museum in Seattle Center. The kids all had a good time, and it was good to get them out of the hotel room for most of the day since Friday evening the men went to the marineer baseball game against the yankees. They were all happy that the marineers won. ( is that really how you spell marineers? it looks wrond to me but spell check says its right. Maybe its spelled so wrong spell check doesnt even know. maybe spellcheck is currently broken? at any rate you all know what i mean) Mary and I had loads of fun of our own with all three kids at the hotel room. (dripping with sarcasm here) Eventually we got them all to go to sleep thankfully and we enjoyed a movie that we had rented. After driving through downtown seattle to rent the movie I have decided that i could never live there. Every other street is a one way only and its so confusing to me! I think I am just a smaller town/ subburb kind of girl.

Look at those hot firemen!
Checking out the vehicles.




There was a construction room. Theo liked the hats.
Porter wanted to build something so Aunt Mary helped him get started. He always sticks his tounge out while concentrating.. I think its genetic as my mom does the exact thing!

The building was a bit beyond Theo, so we took him back to the little kid area and left Uncle Ben and Cory to help Porter with his project. ( oh ya i know thi picture should be turned... but hey i am lazy and if i waited to do that i might never get this posted at all)
We came back to find the boys had built a really cool houst. Porter wanted to know where the door was though and didnt seem to think it made any sence that it was on the ceiling.


This is my friend Tricia that met us for the day. I have known her for three years, I actually met her on a babyboard when i was pregnant with Taylor. It was great to finally meet her in person!

This is her daughter Kathryn


This picture isnt the best but I had to post it becuase its a good shot of my sister Mary's big ol baby belly! Porter was being my waiter and bringing me yummy food. It kind of looks like his leg is turning into sand like that guy in the spiderman movie. My camera does have all these features to make it not blurry but i only know how to use the point and shoot auto feature so many of my picures dont turn out!


Theo looking a bit stoned.
Preston was there.. sleeping most of the time. The rest of the time he nursed and grunted at me
This is a really cool fountain that was in Seattle center. It was about 70 degrees this day with a slight wind which was warm and nice for walking around but I was surprised to see kids in swim suits running through it! Here is Uncle Ben holding Theo. Porter was off playing tag with the water spraying out...


This is a view from the space needle. Gorgeous, isn't it?

at the base of it.. it was quite impressive. I must say though that 16 dollars a person is a bit much to charge for an elevator ride and a view. Maybe I am just cheap? At least the kiddos were free. And now I can say i went up there.
View of the city. Porter liked looking in the binoculars. You could zoom in and out with them and I couldn't help but feeling weird that I could zoom in on someones front window of their house.
Mary snuggling Preston while the boys were at the baseball game. ( I didn't send my camera with Cory to the games, i should have though!)

Preston hugging his younger cousin ( who is yet to be named but also a boy)

I miss you so much. Seeing the pics makes me want to be with you again. Your boys are really handsome. I am glad that they had so much fun (at the expence of our sanity some times:) )
Thanks for going through all of the effort to put the pics up. I love to look at them.
Love Mary
