Family Pictures

Cambria Whitby was so great to take these of us a little while ago, and I think she did an awesome job, and we had a lot of fun! Thank you Cambria!!! We also got some of Chandler for his One year old Pictures. We are hoping to get more of him some time, with Cambria's cool props she has. So more 1 year pictures to come!

Chandler's 1st birthday party

Chandler turned 1 over a month ago, and I am finnally getting around to posting the pictures from his party. I'm a little behind, I know...
I made a barn cake, which we put onto a sheet cake, and then made all these little cupcake animals. All the kids gathered around and helped him open his presents, one of them being a shirt that says "Big brother" which was our way of announcing there's another baby on the way for us!
All day, Chandler kept reaching towards the bright cupcakes and was all disappointed when I would pull him away. So here he is finally with a coveted cupcake.

After the party, Chandler had a good time playing in the streamers with Grandpa McGary!

Seattle

We were able to go to Seattle last week, since Jason needed to take a test up there; it was really fun to get to spend some time together as a family-we had not really gone anywhere for a long time.  The first day we went downtown and walked around, making our way to Pike's place market, which is always full of life and good food.  I sound like a travel brochure...The next day we went up to city center, and peeked into the windows of the museums that we were too cheap to pay to get into.  Based on what we saw from outside, we don't feel like we missed much though.    
The first picture above is Chandler doing so well on the drive and getting his first glimpse of the big city. I like to think he actually registered what he saw...but he was probably more interested in his cheerios if we're being honest.  He does love his big boy car seat though!!

 Chandler loved chasing the seagulls around everywhere we went.  This was at Seattle Center.  At Pikes's place market, we let him out to walk, and there were pigeons inside there that he thought was great fun to follow around and around in circles.

 Right under the Space needle
 Loving the sweet n' tarty goodness of his first Jamba Juice! (Strawberry surf rider-mmmmmm!!)
 Getting a Piggy back ride at pikes place.
...Still slurping away on what he thought was HIS Jamba juice.  He wasnt too happy when we pryed it from his fingers...


We had a lot of fun on our little trip!  Chandler was really acting like a big boy, and was so funny and lots of fun to be with.  Yay for family vacations!!
