Washington

Summer is more or less over at our house. Bert is back at school, I was working close to full time this summer and now I'm back at home. So time to catch up on some posts.

I spent all of May and June miserable with morning sickness. It's finally gone, but I can't say we did much those couple of months!

July we spent the first two weeks in Washington. The drive up was pretty uneventful and the kids did great!

Until we got to the pass...


... and we discovered that Kaylie gets carsick. Luckily we were only 30 minutes from Spokane and just drove the rest of the way with the windows open. We weren't so lucky coming home. She thew up twice and had two diaper blowouts. I think between that and potty breaks we stopped every two hours! Emma's comment when we stopped in Pocatello for some food: "Mommy, going home takes a long time!"

While in Spokane we left the kids with grandma, grandpa, lots of aunts and uncles and Bert and I spent a weekend in Seattle. Kind of a belated 5th anniversary trip. We had tons of fun! Stayed in a beautiful hotel in Bellevue, right near the temple. Spent some time on the waterfront and attended my cousin's wedding. It was a much needed, wonderful vacation for the two of us! I was still dealing with morning sickness, so not a lot of pictures.
