Swim Lessons

This past Saturday we suited up and headed to the Meadowbrook Community Center for Macey's first swim lesson.  The lessons focus on getting Macey used to being in deeper water than the bathtub.  She loved being in the water and even practiced floating on her back.

The Masters and Easter

Spring at last!  It feels like the rainy Seattle winter has dragged on forever, but spring is in the air.  We took full advantage of the sun during this busy weekend.  Macey dressed up to watch the Masters with Jason on Sunday, getting one last wear out of her special Masters dress that Grammy S picked up last year while at the tournament.  She also has been dragging around her new putter that Uncle Jeff got her.

On Sunday, Macey celebrated Easter by finding her first real Easter basket.  The Easter Bunny left her bubbles, bath toys, crayons, a book, and a new sippy cup with a straw.  No candy for Macey this year, but she did get bunny grahams and cheddar bunnies.  Hutch really enjoyed the treats the Easter Bunny left.

Macey has been carrying her Easter basket around the house, loading it and unloading it with various toys.


After morning nap, we headed to the Woodland Park Zoo to meet our good friends, Matt, Sarah, and Patrick for a picnic and some animal viewing.  The monkeys and chickens were Macey's favorite animals to view.
 Macey preferred to run around on the grass rather than sit down and eat lunch
