HEATWAVE!

Okay...so maybe we're wimps here in Seattle, but with temperatures approaching 90 degrees (IN JUNE), we're having a bit of a tough week. The real issue is the poor insulation in our house...by 3pm, it's a full 10-15 degrees hotter in our living room than it is outside. It's crazy! We're going to break down today and buy a window AC unit, which will have to be rigged up getto-style since we have sliding windows. I really don't care at this point. Summer has just begun, and we need at least one room to have as a refuge.

Other than the heat...things are going well. Lily had her two week appt last Friday, weighing in at a nice 7 lbs, 10 oz / 20 inches long. She's in the 50th percentile for weight, height, and head size now.

The weekend was great. My parents were here in Seattle with their illustrious wine tasting group. They did a limo tour on Saturday in Woodinville, and we met up with them for dinner at Trellis that night.

Dinner was delicious, and despite a tiny meltdown at the end of the night...Lily's first dinner out was pretty well.

We joined them for a brief wine tour on Sunday, as they hit up a few wineries they missed the day before. (We also has a bunch of wine club shipments to pick up)

This week has so far been spent doing the best we can to keep cool. Lily is loving the heat just about as much as we are.




Clothes are overrated when it's 95 degrees in your house!


More later when I'm not sweating on my keyboard!
