Sleepless in Seattle

Jonathan has been working in Seattle for the past couple months. Instead of him coming home for the weekend, Addy and I went to Seattle. It was my first time there and it was beautiful. We had nice weather Thursday through Saturday, then it rained Sunday. I was a tad nervous to fly with Addy now that she is the ultimate wiggle worm. I had an aisle seat on the flight there and there was an open seat next to me. I kept hoping and praying that no one would sit there. After everyone was seated a pilot flying stand-by came up to our row, looked at the empty seat, looked at my wiggly Addy, and asked, "Is that the only seat left?" Yes sir. "Hmm....looks like you've got your hands full. I'll go sit in the cockpit." Yahoo! This trip I realized that I no longer have a little baby I can tote anywhere I go. Addy missed sleeping in her crib and decided to let us know that by waking up every other hour at night. She also found it very difficult to take a nap when she could see us in the hotel room. Nothing like traveling with an overly tired baby. :-) To top it all off, she woke up Friday morning with two pink eyes and a rash all over her belly and back. Her pediatrician suggested we have someone look at her ears. I tried to find Seattle Grace and Dr. McDreamy... google didn't have him listed. Bummer. So, we spent the morning in urgent care. Fun! All in all, it was great to see Jonny and fun to see where he works. It was great to explore a new city and see some of the classic tourist sites.

This is outside the flagship REI store in Seattle, within walking distance from our hotel. Jonny was in heaven!

View from the Space Needle. They actually feel okay about charging you $16 each to ride an elevator. Looks like we're the suckers.

Addy in her little hospital gown at Seattle Grace. (I wish!) Of course, it was just a virus, can't do anything about it. Love that response from the doctor. I bet Dr. McDreamy could do something!
