A Visit from Uncle Matt & Chrissy

My cousin Matt and his girlfriend Chrissy flew out from DC to visit us. We had a great time! Matt always brings the fresh powder when he comes - we went skiing his first day in town with about 2 feet of fresh powder at Stevens Pass. It was an amazing day.

Edison adores his Uncle Matt - probably because Matt is willing to get down on the floor and play games with him. During Matt's visit, the first thing out of Edison's mouth every morning was "Where's Uncle Matt?" The second thing? He would ask for Chrissy - who is also amazing with our kids. Number three? Breakfast!
We spent a chilly day being tourists in Seattle. This is a picture from the waterfront.

Yours truly with Charlotte at the Pike Place Market.

It was super cold - and windy (you can see the white caps). But, it was a beautiful day on Puget Sound! The Olympic Mountains are in the distance (looking west from Seattle waterfront).

Charlotte is nine months old now. She is starting to "cruise" around - walk around while holding on to furniture. Here she shows off her new moves.
