The Rain Has Come


Well it had to happen sooner or later. Summer is over in Seattle and the rain has taken the place of the sun we so enjoyed. Olivia saw her first umbrella yesterday as we walked to the store in the mist. She kept craning her head back and looking up at the umbrella. Everyday is a new experience!

Today they started pouring the foundation for the condos they are building across the street. She sat in front of the sliding glass doors peering out at all the activity. The construction noise is annoying, but at least it gives us something to watch when it's too yukky to venture outside.


On a personal note, today I joined the Seattle Moms MeetUp Group. I'm hoping to connect with some other moms, enjoy the occasional playdate and a monthly Mom's Night Out event. It's been hard for me to make friends here, and now more than ever, I need some adult interaction!

Thanks for checking out my first post. I'm new to this blogging thing, but I hope to use it as a way to stay in touch with family and friends, and keep George involved in what Olivia and I are doing while he is at work. By the way, Goooo Gators! Beat them Dawgs!
