Happy birthday, Grandpa!

Grandpa's Birthday

Grandpa Koehn & Mimi were in town for a visit. Audrey lovingly made a "cake" decorated with cinnamon and sugar sprinkles for Grandpa's birthday. The best part was when Audrey said "Grandpa eat it." And, like a good Grandpa, he did take a bite. Now, that's love.

Deep in the Heart of Texas

Dallas 07

Sloan & Piper headed to Dallas to catch up with some great friends. First, a visit with Margie, Noah & Micah. Thank you to Margie & Noah for lunch and to Micah for the kisses.

Then, off to the Kraus House to meet the boys, Zachary & Aaron, who were born in March. Heather figured out that we've known each other for 17 years! And, it was a bit surreal hanging out with our kids. After many hours of swapping stories about sleep, spitup and poop, Heather asked what we used to talk about before we had kids. Hell if I remember!

We finished off our trip with a lovely lunch with Margie. Good luck with commuting to Austin this year.

We wish these friends were closer so that we could to this more often. We're looking forward to the next time.

Cooper Lake

Camping 2007

We went on our first family camping trip. Audrey was so excited to sleep in a tent. She got dirty and played in the lake. Piper loved being outside all day. We had great company - Jill, Darren & Sai, Eriko & Miya, and Johan and Thom (his nephew from Belgium).

Baby Avik

We had a visit with Baby Avik and his parents. We're so glad to meet him and can't wait till they move back from Hawaii. Aloha!

Oregon

Oregon 2007

We just got back from a whirlwind trip to Oregon. We showed off Piper to the Eugene clan, who hadn't met her yet. Teddy had his 20 year high school reunion. And, we had some fun in Black Butte with Brent, Katherine, Lillian & Landry. The kids did great in the car and slept a lot during the 5+ hour drives.

Piper's so strong and just dying to get moving. She's so frustrated that she can't crawl yet, not that she's not trying. You'll see the results of her attempts in the pictures. She's fully recovered, by the way.

Leavenworth

Leavenworth 07

We headed up to the mountains for a little R&R. Unfortunately, Teddy & Audrey got sick, but they hung in there. This is the same group that we went to the mountains with last winter. I included some pictures from that trip for comparison. Kids grow fast!

The Chongs Visit

Jin, Su Jin, and the girls stopped in for a visit on their way to Edmonton.

Take Me Out to the Ball Games

We had a busy weekend of ball games.

First, the Sounders on Saturday night. Then, the Mariners on Sunday. Audrey's still saying "Audrey no like Mariner Moose."

I sit, therefore, I am.

Can you believe it, Piper's almost 6 month's old!

Piper June 07

Aloha!

Things continue to be busy with us. We ended April with a 2nd birthday party with our PEPS group at the Children's Museum. Click on the photos below to see what we've been up to.

PEPS 2nd Birthday

Audrey and Piper are growing closer everyday and get such a kick out of each other. Their favorite thing to do is make each other laugh.

May 2007

We just got back from visiting Kathie and Colin in Maui. Thanks for a great time. Audrey loved playing on the beach but was a little scared of the ocean. She was brave and made it into the water a couple of times. Piper slept like a champ at the beach and learned to roll over at Tutu's house. We had a great time but, boy, it's harder to travel with two kids!

Two Years Old

Audrey turned two! Thanks to all of our family and friends (near and far) who helped make her birthday so special.

Audrey's 2nd Birthday

100 Days

Piper turned 100 days today. She's happy, healthy, and strong. We'll be celebrating tomorrow with some champagne and duk (Korean rice cakes).

April, Part 1

April is a busy month with lots of birthdays and activities. Teddy turned 38, we visited the zoo, Sai turned one, and we hunted Easter eggs. Click on the picture below to see the full album.
