Not to be too effusive but here we go:
Friday: a surprisingly easy road trip with baby. Not anywhere near as bad as I could have imagined even if I wouldn't care to repeat it anytime soon. Poor
secret_hippie had to ride in the back of the cab because the carseat doesn't really fit back there. We arrived to a fantastically delicious dinner in three courses (four if you count the liquor: tasty, tasty martinis) a tomato bisque followed by fried rice and spicy beef, there was also creme broulee. Our friends Brian and Jen displayed a level of hospitality that makes me feel shamed that I ever even thought of asking people into our home. Jen's sister and brother-in-law came to dinner with their daughter who made fast friends with Rona.

Saturday: we started with more rich food: eggs benedict, artisan breads, tasty jams, i cry a little when I remember it. We managed to make it to Target to pick up a air mattress without a hole in it to sleep on that night before we needed to head to the arboreteum to meet with all our sundry Seattle friends who managed to make it up there (and a couple of Portland friends too: yay!) It was far to short and randomly executed but at least we got to hang out some.

Sunday: we pretty much were at IKEA from 11:30 am-2 pm. We bought a vast amount of stuff: a oversized love seat (although not in leather), shelving solutions, and more and more stuff. It was good we had a trailer. suffice to say we have places to sit and put stuff plus a thingy to keep little people hands away from the stove top, and a step stool. Again the ride home was tough on the little one:
