This week, Emmett went traveling. He had to make a quick trip to Colorado. Here he is waiting for his plane in Redmond.

We flew in the Beaver plane over Mt. Hood to Seattle.



We were terrified going into the trip, but E was very good on the plane.

I ain't handicapped, I'm a baby.

We reserved a crib at the hotel in Denver. They gave it to someone else. Not to worry. Turns out they didn't give our drawers away.

Good thing Em can't walk, or stand, or crawl, or sit up, or roll over, or do much of anything.

In Colorado Springs, John and Karen very generously put us up for a night, thankfully giving the sleep-deprived Emmett somewhere to nap. There was a gathering of babies on Thursday night. This was Em's first exposure to other babies (or, really, any other people for that matter).


Those who can get up and walk are free to leave.


Karen made a beautiful and delicious trifle for dessert:

OK, my turn to stick that thing in my mouth.

The real reason we made the trip to Colorado Springs: breakfast at Urban Steam.

Return flights went just as well as the flights to Colorado Springs. Waiting for our car seat in Redmond.

Spring has sprung.
