No Baby Yet

We are still waiting on the arrival of the newest Hefford-Anderson. Last night we walked all over Ikea hoping to induce labor and had tacos. This one is a stubborn one just like it’s siblings. :)

A lot of the guesses have been wrong. Anyone care to guess again?

In the running still:
Amanda – This afternoon
Auntie Pam – 6/18 PM
Dionne – 6/19
Tanya – 6/21 Father’s Day

We hope the baby arrives soon and we’ll post pictures as soon as we have a new baby to take pictures of. For now we are enjoying the time we have before the baby’s arrival, but looking forward to meeting our new addition.

We invited some of our friends to go to the pool for swimming last night. We had a BBQ and swam lots. Finley was busy running around the grass, but finally got in the pool with all of his friends.

Finley and Tyler attended the Home Depot Kids Workshop last weekend. It was mostly Tyler building the project and Finley watching, but they had fun.

Bike Ride

When Samantha was about 3 we bought a bike trailer at Costco and took it for a trip to Lopez Island. We had used it one day when the wheel came off and the side was shreaded. We took it to Costco and they gave us a new one. We never used it again because Samantha got too big. We have just stored it since then and tonight Tyler got the “new” trailer out and put it together and drove Finley around the block. Finley had a great time.

Brunch Cruise

This Sunday we went on a cruise around Lake Washington and Lake Union on a Waterways brunch Cruise. It was Finley’s first time on a boat and he seemed to enjoy it. The food was good and the sightseeing was fun. It is something we would do again with friends or family from out of town.

Opening Day at the Pool

Yesterday was opening day of the swim season at our pool. We stopped by for the Barbecue and Finley and Tyler took a little swim. Last year Finley wasn’t too big into swimming, but this year he was a little fish. He got a new life vest (which he calls his swim jacket), but we think it is a little big so we’ll find something else for this summer. It was such a gorgeous day. We’ll be spending most of our summer at the pool.
