Snapshots from yesterday

Yesterday was one of those very full days. Many sweet moments, and a few moments that weren't so sweet but were pretty darn funny. Here are some highlights -

  • Woke up before everyone else, snuck up to the yoga studio, and took my daily practice. Yet again, I ended the practice feeling so blessed and grateful for all that I have.

  • Came downstairs to find John getting ready for work. Discovered that when your husband starts biking to work every day, his legs turn into rock hard sexy masses of muscle. Yay.

  • Went to the childrens museum with Isabella at her request. How could I resist the sweet wishes of my beloved child? Spent the day watching her play joyously. Below is a pic of her painting in the art room at the Museum and a self portrait of me with Melanie in her baby carrier.

  • Left the childrens museum and spent some time enjoying a wonderful Incan band playing at Seattle Center. I love street performers! These guys are great... I've seen them around lots and they always get me dancing.

  • Took the bus home from Seattle Center. Across from me on the bus was a man in tiny shorts with his legs wide open. Unfortunately, he was hanging out of his pants, so I tried to look away. Even more unfortunately, he tried to talk to me and thus could not be ignored. Him - "How old is your baby?" me - "9 weeks, and tuck yourself back into your pants please, sir." 10min later when he forgot to keep crossing his legs and started hanging out again, Isabella said loudly (to the audience of the full bus) "Mommy, why doesn't he have any underwear on?" Sometimes you just have to laugh. And no, I didn't take a pic for the sake of my blog.
  • Spent the evening at Montlake Ale House with friends. MAH is a pub with a kid pit - i.e. a sunken part of the floor with tons of toys and a ring of seats around the perimiter for the parents. So Isabella played with her friend Charlotte while we watched the presidential debate and ate pub food with Charlotte's parents Mike and Cindy. Yay for getting our kids exposed to politics so young! Here is a pic of John and Melanie watching the debate.

All in all, an excellent day!

That bus comment is so awesome. Sometimes it takes a kid to say what needs to be said.
