We were super lucky to have our very special friend Stephanie and her daughter Elliot come to Portland to visit. We unfortunately had crummy weather, but we made the best of it and still had a great time. Most of all, it was just nice to catch up and spend time together! Thank you ladies for coming to see us.
A few photos of Jalen and Elliot keeping themselves entertained at dinner (@ Bridgeport Brew Co.):
Stopped for yogurt during our "girls trip" to the mall:
We spent the next day at OMSI, where Elliot was fascinated by "the sand pit" and Jalen was off playing in the "water area" and the "market/kitchen" :-):
After a few hours of the kids being stuck inside because of the rain and naps, we decided to take them to John's Incredible Pizza/Arcade for dinner. We're still not sure if that was a good or bad idea :-) :
Getting ready for bed:
Elliot giving Aliyah a few snuggles before bedtime. She was SO good to her...such a natural with babies:
The last night they were in town, Stephanie and I were able to sneak out for a bit, while Scott watched the kiddos. We enjoyed a nice hot stone foot massage at The Foot Bar in downtown Portland. It was a quick outing, but well worth it!!! Scott is the most amazing husband/father and always willing to help out...including taking on three kids for one night. We couldn't help but laugh, however, at the craziness we walked into when we came home. The kids were playing "jump on daddy," while Aliyah lay by herself on the bed (notice 3-year-old Elliot has a watchful eye on Aliyah, making sure she is okay)...everyone was having a great time!
