This past weekend we stayed around the house and prepared for Amber's visit (mainly cleaned the house). It did snow a little bit on Sunday so we loaded the baby up in the stroller and took a walk on the BPA trail! Amber arrived in Tacoma for a visit on Tuesday December 9th. We spent the afternoon catching up and making white chicken chili! Wednesday we ventured out to the SuperMall with Louis and Mike. We did a little shopping but the main reason for the trip was to take Louis' picture with Santa.
They took about 10 pictures of him before finally getting one with just one eye open (better than nothing!) We ate lunch at Panera and headed home for some leftover chili for dinner and a movie. (Well, Mike and Amber watched the movie and I slept). The next day, Amber, Louis and I headed to downtown Seattle. I was a little nervous taking Louis downtown (fearing he would have a crabypants day) and also driving my stick shift on the hills of Seattle but it all worked out.
We started at my favorite restaurant in the Fish Market the Soundview Cafe and then toured the rest of the market, had coffee at Caffe Darte, walked to the bookstore in Pioneer Square and then headed for home. Louis did well, and had only one breakdown - due to the fact that he insisted on being on his own feeding schedule instead of eating when I tried to feed him at lunch. Imagine that! We made it home safely and spent the evening organizing pictures for Amber's wedding album (finally!) We took a break from the pictures to go out to dinner at the Rock for pizza and beer! It was great spending the week with Amber but it was very sad to see her go. Hopefully she can come back out here with Troy in September!!
