Last week Nathan celebrated his first 4th of July! We spent the day taking a walk up to our neighborhood park where they had a big 4th of July celebration with food, face paint, tons of bouncy houses, a train, pony rides, etc. Obviously Nate couldn't participate in any of those things yet, but it made us excited for future 4th's when he's a little older. Then we went over to the Spauldings for a BBQ. Unfortunately Nate was a very crabby the whole day. So although we did some fun activities, James and I were exhausted by the end of the day after multiple meltdowns. We survived though and at least got to let off some fireworks at the end of the night which made up for the challenging day.

Then this past weekend Nate got to take his first ferry ride! We went with the Warners over to Bainbridge Island to celebrate Nana's birthday. What a perfect Seattle day! Nate was the total opposite of the 4th and was an angel all day. Thank goodness! We had fun walking around town and enjoyed a yummy dinner at Four Swallows. What a big week for Nate--so many firsts!
