'Round Here

Here are some random pictures of our area.

Adam took this picture while on a boat trip on Lake Washington.
These next ones are of The Bird's and my exploration of the Puget Sound area down the road from our place.

This is our neighborhood. The Bird and I were out playing in the street when Adam came home so he's in a few of these. These houses are directly across the street from us.
This is our backyard. We live in a triplex and the 3 dudes who live downstairs enter from the backyard, so although they are super nice and friendly , Birdie and I don't go back there much. We stick to walks in the street. She just likes puddles and rocks more than grass, what can I say?
This is our entrance on the right side of the house. 2 girls live next to us and they enter from the left side. Sienna goes up and down these steps a million times a day.

This is the front of the house. Our side is covered by that giant tree. It's lovely for privacy and shade but on the rare occasion that it's sunny and warm outside our place is still chilly inside. So I'm getting used to wearing socks and pants and long sleeved shirts and sometimes my big, poufy bathrobe around the house.
We have a garage and that's The Fo in front of it. We park Zippy inside the garage. She will not be used much in the next couple years because Adam rides the bus to and from school.

Here's Adam coming home from the bus stop which is super close.

Birdie kneeling in the water and sampling rocks.

This is a different day when we were out when Adam was just getting off the bus. Birdie runs to say hello.

She thinks it's really funny that he carries a thermos of hot chocolate with him to school. Ha ha!
We are next door to this nondescript corner bakery. It bakes bread all day every day to be distributed to stores and bakeries. You can also walk in and buy your own loaf if you want. And we ALWAYS want. But at $4 a loaf, it's expensive. And sooooooo good. The smell is delicious torture, but good thing I have my trusty breadmaker that makes a loaf that is almost just as tasty for way cheaper.
Here is Crown Hill Cemetary where The Bird and I enjoy quiet exploration.

One last shot for you. THE BIRD! She's growing up and soooo insanely cute. She can now: go down a slide without me holding onto her, go down a few steps if there is a rail to hold on to, run, kiss with her mouth closed (video coming soon), hug, and loves saying UH OH! She'll also say Wuh Wuh when she sees a dog, Miii when she sees a cat, Buh Bye when daddy leaves for school, Yeah to every question asked (another video coming soon). And one more month until nursery!
