Wedding and Mariners game...

We had a busy weekend! We went to our only wedding this summer on Saturday (which is crazy, usually there's a bunch!) for my co-worker Kelly. It rained on us a little bit during the reception, but other than that the weather was beautiful and we had a great time.

Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Hansen!

Kyle and I...

Kyle holding my co-worker Darryn's baby Anela... for some reason she cried whenever a man held her! I guess he thought if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! :)

A bunch of my co-workers (some of my favorite people!) from left to right: Ally, Denise, Crystal, Kelly, Kerri, me, Valerie, Darryn, and Tracie.

Sunday morning we woke up really early to go to a Mariner's game with Rick and Tanner. The game was at 1:00, so we left Portland around 7:30 and hit the road! I was really excited because I'd never been to Safeco field, and the last time I saw a Mariner's game was at the Kingdome when Griffey was still in the outfield, so it had definitely been a while... Kyle got free tickets through Nike, and they were awesome! We were 22 rows back, directly behind home plate. We found free parking too, so it was a very cost-effective trip!

The view from our seats!

Tanner gave me a Mariner's jersey to wear... Kyle wore a Houston Astros hat :)

After the game, the boys dropped me off in Portland and headed off to Seaside. Kyle has a reenactment there this weekend, but got to go and relax for a couple days... unfortunately he has to come home this week for school before heading back for his reenactment at Ft. Stevens. My mom and dad are joining the Halls this week in Seaside, and I'll be heading over there after work on Friday. I'm excited, it will be a fun weekend! We're going to relax on the coast and watch Kyle and Bryan shoot at those rebels. :)

This week I will be 13 weeks--the last week of my first trimester! Yay! That means that I'm officially 1/3 done with my pregnancy, which is a pretty crazy thought. Here is what's going on this week:

The baby has reached the size of a peach, and is about 3 inches long and weighs nearly an ounce. It's intestines, which have been growing inside the umbilical cord, are now starting their trek to their permanent position in the baby's abdomen. Also developing this week: baby's vocal cords! Fingerprints have formed on the baby's tiny fingertips, and it's veins and organs are visible through translucent skin.

I'll post lots of pictures of Seaside and Ft. Stevens when I get back! Hope you all have a great holiday weekend! :)

  2. Great pictures, I think Kyle will have to practice holding a baby, when it is his own things will look a lot different. Have a great time this coming weeekend. Say hi to the Hall's for us especially Tanner from grandma Book. Love you all. G&GBook

  4. You guys have a hectic life. I couldn't keep up that pace any more.

    And Grama, I think you are wrong. Kyle will definately have the same look on his face when it's his own baby...and it's late...and he/she is crying...again...
