Bellingham Visit

Isla and I were fortunate enough to go to Bellingham to visit my parents for a week. Isla was a great flier (which is nice to know for our trip to Maui in February!). The hum of the engines put her right to sleep. It was great to see my Mom and Dad and let them bond with their one and only granddaughter. My Dad hadn't seen Isla since she was born so he was very excited that he got to see her for an entire week. He would come home during his lunches and play with her and take the early morning feedings which was awesome! Isla got to go to two parties while she was in town, one was in her honor thrown by my parents. The other party was a white elephant exchange and Isla was definitely a hit - some people even wanted to take her home! The time really flew by while we were in Bellingham, but we had such a great time visiting with our friends and family. Here are some pictures from the week:

Wow, she's gotten so big and keeps getting cuter and cuter :)
Hope to see you, Ryan, Isla, and Hank soon!
