Mommy, daddy and Sofia went to visit Mt Rainier this past weekend. It is the biggest mountain in the state of Washington, standing tall at over 14,000 ft.
The mountain also boasts some big glaciers, so besides it being tall and hard to climb, the glaciers make it even harder.
Of course we didn’t make it that far, we only made it up to Sunrise, which is the highest point you can get to by car, at 6,000 ft.
Here are some pics from our excursion:
Today we went to see Pike Place, an open air market in downtown Seattle. We had a great brunch at Etta’s, then we walked around the market looking at all the flowers, produce, meats, souvenirs and sidewalk performers, got some great Russian pastries for dessert and coffee from the first Starbucks ever opened, then we hang out on the lawn, by the water watching the birds and the people.
All in all, a great day!
Mommy, daddy and Sofia are getting ready to go out for an evening on the town. Mommy dressed Sofia in a new dress she got from grandma Gale, and also worked on the hairstyle. Here’s Sofia trying to fix her hair better than mommy did.
Sofia has a new friend. Her name is Froggy, she wears a red dress and bandana and she’s green. Sofia and Froggy take naps together – well, mostly Sofia, cause Froggy hasn’t learned how to close her eyes yet!
Now that the weather is getting warmer, mommy and Sofia get to hang out more outside.
The other day, they took a blanket and spent the afternoon in the backyard.
Because it was such a beautiful day yesterday, we decided to go downtown for a walk.
We had some ice cream, did some people watching (Sofia chose to watch the motorcycles instead), took a walk around the fountain, and before heading home we took some pictures in the park.
Now that Sofia’s hair is growing longer, mommy loves to buy her all kinds of cute hairclip. Here are some.
PS next installment, the dragon fly hairclips!
Daddy found the baby carrier mommy has and decided to try it on. He really likes it, so it seems Sofia will have a new mode of transportation from now on, whether she likes it or not.
Mommy was getting antsy again so she tried putting a hairclip in sofia’s hair. But this time she got lucky, cause the clip stayed put. Now we’re ready to wear it at church!
Sofia and mommy went to visit grandma Ungur’s house one day last week. Grandma loves to play with Sifua and show her all kinds of new things (new for Sofia). Here she was showing her grandma’s favorite flower.
