Go Seahawks!

It's been a long time, I'm very overdue on posts...still hoping to go back and add one for CE's visit with the Grossman/Maloney's in Cali and one for Christmas...what a great time was had!  How fortunate we are.

But on to the here and now -we had a really nice Seattle weekend.

Yesterday we took CE to Sportball at the Montlake Community Center where she learned how to "play" football. It was her second week going (last week was soccer), and while she's not completely warmed up to the environment, she's getting better.  In another few weeks she'll only spend a few minutes attached to my leg. 

After, I headed off for a run and Sean and CE went to fly a kite in Gasworks park.  I stopped over on my run and snapped a few photos.

 

Today we went for a bike ride to Madison Park, but let's be honest, the center piece  of the day was the Seahawks beating the 49ers! Super Bowl! Woo hoo! I would say it was the highlight, but it wasn't. After the game I realized that CE had disappeared and hadn't been heard from for about 5 minutes, which is a pretty long stretch  "um, Sean, where is Carrie Ella?" (great parenting, I know). Sean went in search of her and found that she had gone into the bathroom, pulled her pants down, removed her diaper, peed on her potty, wiped herself and put her pants back on. All by herself! Woah! So proud of her! Let's hope she keeps this going.
