Matthew and I flew out to Seattle on Friday, August 10th. We had sooooo much fun!!!! We went to see my SHARE friends and meet up with all the Seattle rainbow babies!!! We stayed with Pam and her 4 kids (they were AWESOME!!!). Pam has a rainbow named Wyatt and we went to dinner at the pier on Friday. It was so neat to sit by the pudget sound and eat dinner. The salmon was FABULOUS!!!! Matthew loved the clam chowder.

Matthew LOVED Brooklyn. They are only a month a part.


Baby Nate!!!! The newest Seattle rainbow!!!! I loved kissing on those cheeks!!!!



Matthew loved playing with Aly (8) and Renee (7) They were so good with him.



Here are the SHARE ladies with a few rainbows....

Sherry took the second picture, so Bridgette could get in.

Sherry is the "AUNT" of Share. Her sister started on Share when her little girl Samantha died..she invited Sherry to get on and deal with her grief and she's wormed her way into ALL our hearts!!!! She was one of the reasons I went to Seattle. I wanted to meet her so much. It amazed me how much an Aunt can be supportive, you don't see a lot of that on Share. Sherry stayed hours after everyone left. We could've talked longer, so I need to go back to Seattle again :)
Matthew LOVED Brooklyn. They are only a month a part.

This is Krista's little boy Eliott. He is just cute as can be!!!! He was shy at first, but soon warmed up.
Krista's Meah....I was so excited to meet both Eliott and Meah!!!!
Baby Nate!!!! The newest Seattle rainbow!!!! I loved kissing on those cheeks!!!!
Matthew no swiping...Matthew no swiping.....Matthew NO SWIPING!!!!!

AH MAN!!!!!!!!! Matthew kept taking Wyatt's sippy cup!!!! SURPRISE SURPRISE, he must've been missing Ady. He loves to take things from Ady.

We dressed Matthew and Wyatt in matching clothes the last day.

Matthew, Holly, Pam and Wyatt!!!! Pam was the best host EVER!!!
OKAY, now my flight home story. Matthew did so well on the flight there. We sat next to the sweetest lady. On the flight home, we sat next to a teenage boy. He was quite, but I could tell he wasn't thrilled to be sitting next to us. Well, we took off and not 10 minutes into the 2 hr flight, I smell the worst smell EVER!!!! Yes, a poop. Matthew looked right up in my face and said proudly, "I poop!!" Well, the seatbelt light was still on and the flight attendants were "making the rounds," so they completely blocked the aisle. Finally when they passed us, the boy next to us said, "You can change him now." So I took him up to the front bathroom and I barely fit in it....Matthew cried because I had to lay him on the toilet to try to change him. It was AWFUL!!! We finally got our business done and headed back to our seat. Not 20 mintues later, Matthew looked up at me and said, "I poop!" I wanted to crawl under the seat. The boy next to me was plugging his nose and frowning at me. So off to the front we went. OCCUPIED! ugh!!! I stood there for a while. The flight attendant came up to me and said, "The one in the back is bigger, but it's busy right now." So I walked to the back and waited. We finally got in and it was much more spacious and easy. I didn't want to leave :) But I did. We finally landed, got in the car and when McKell got Matthew out of his carseast, he had BLOWN out so bad, I wanted to puke!!!! I couldn't believe how poopie he was.We LOVED Seattle, the trip was short, the weather was fabulous and we'd love to go back!!!

Holly,
We had such a lovely time and I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to get to know you and Matthew better. My kids love you and talk about you and Matthew now almost daily. Joe and I would love to stop by to see you all on our road trip next summer.
I sure hope you come back and we get to spend time with you again. I wish we had more time to show you around Seattle. It really is so much fun, maybe next time ;)
God Bless your beautiful family,
Pam
