Getting around town with the Fam

Coffee time with my Buddy
Stopped for a few minutes this past Wednesday to wait out the traffic. Garrett was hungry and I found the coolest food for him.
I guess with a Peter Rabbit character on the package it is marketed for children. It was an awesome fruit puree that was easy to feed by squeezing the pouch. He loved it!

Where in PDX are Harlan and Tammy?



















At the Oregon Zoo!


Hanging out with the...
We made arrangements for J & J to pick up Wyatt from school and meet up with the rest of the kids at the zoo.


















It was a bit nippy but the kids were pretty bundled up. They found a lot to keep us busy while we waited. I'm glad the zoo has such a large area to run around in before you have to enter the ticket gate.
Meet up with the Parents
We have all of our grandkids on our zoo pass and get two guests in each time we visit too. It's a great place to take the fam.

Early Valentine's Lunch or a very Belated 5th Anniversary
Logan & Alyssa were able to join Har and I for a lunch date at McMenamin's. (thanks to Krystle and Hayden watching all the kids) I didn't take a picture of our burgers but managed to take pics of the desserts. We split a crumble and they split a carrot cake.



















They are off on a Valentine's Day weekend trip while we have their sweet kiddoes here with us.
Thanks for letting us spend time with them. So far, so fun!

Gramma blankies


















Before Rowan and Katie came this weekend I wanted to have "Gramma blankies" for them to use just like Joylynn's kids do. So the above photos were taken during the process. The Katie inspired one is on the left and the Rowan inspire one is on the right.

Henry needs one too, so I stopped by Joann's and picked up some flannel. They are having an AWESOME sale til tomorrow. Below is my Henry inspired fabric. The Safari/Adventure print is going to be the back of the blanket. So bright and colorful! That boy loves dogs and cats and pretty much all animals.


Pizza Hut tonight for pizza night

















Rowan and Katie are really good eaters. Rowan was working on his 3rd piece and Katie was making her way through her 2nd.
The quarter machines were calling to Rowan the whole time he was eating. We said he could get something when he was finished. With Cameron's help he was one happy boy.
Just what he needs before bed. SUGAR!
This little goofy face girl is going to be 11 months old on the 12th. That means the official 11 month photo is going to be taken. She is the master of many faces. We will see what she comes up with for the photographer or perhaps she is going to play shy.
We shall see. In the meantime, we are going to enjoy every silly minute with her and her brother and their dog.

I love the title of your blog-I'll have to use that line. My three year old is into why right now.. But you had eight so you knew that's about typical.
