When it's Sunny Outside

You do as the Western Washingtonians do!

You picnic

You play with bubbles

You play with Mommy

You play with Daddy

And you practice your walking moves

And most of all! You enjoy the fact that it was finally over 80 degrees outside (Ps.  I'm totally aware that most of you are suffering from crazy HOT heat, but here, here we haven't had a REAL summer yet)! We had a wonderful weekend filled with family and fun.  Filled with BBQ's, mexican food and picnics.  We played outside like there might not be another sunny day because lets face it, we live in Western Washington and there might not be!

I'm ready for some sunshine...Weather Gods....

Here in Washington Spring seems to be a no show right now, we had a teaser about a week ago where it was clear blue skies but only wait for it......54 degrees.  Now if you know anything about Washingtonians you know that when that thermometer hits anything over 50 some break out the birkenstocks and shorts....I personally think those people are crazy, I mean sure its sunny....but it is still FREEZING! I am patiently waiting for some spring weather around these parts....hear me Weather Gods...patiently waiting...


Last summer was kind of a bust, the twins were born at 32 weeks in May so we kept them away from larger groups of people most of the summer, other then a family reunion for a day in July.  We stayed holed up in our house to make sure that they stayed healthy.  Well I'm ready to get outside with them, go to the zoo, the beach, Seattle....pretty much anything you can think of to do outside...I'm ready...bring it on!


These are my summer ideas as of now:

Take these two little cuties to:

Woodland Park Zoo

Check out the animals at Point Defiance Zoo

Maybe take a stroll around Pike Place

On a day like this!

And probably go here as well!

I am sure I will come up with many more ideas on what to do this summer.  But right now with all this rain it sure doesn't seem like its anywhere close to coming.   What are your plans for the summer...or your favorite activity to do with your little ones???

6 lbs left

So I finally got weighed at my 6 week postpartum check, because well I do not own a scale, I never have and I really don't know if I ever will. I have 6 lbs left to pre-pregnancy weight. YAY! Of course the fact that I pump allows me to have an extra 500 calories a day per child which I am sure I take advantage of. So in 6 weeks I lost 42 lbs CRAZY! Im cleared to do excercise HA, ok maybe walk with the babies because it is summer or maybe do some power shopping at Target. Hope everyone is having a great Monday!
