Chicago, Seattle, and back to Bangkok

Well, the rest of our visit in the States seemed to fly by. I enjoyed preparing things for renovations on our apartment, spending time with friends and family, and receiving positive baby updates from my doctor while in Chicago. My mom attended my 20 week ultrasound with me and we were pleased to learn that we are having a boy! Daddy cheered on the phone when I told him the good news following the exam.

John returned from Bangkok and spent some time with 5 of his buddies fishing in the San Juan Islands in Washington. After a few days with the guys, John returned to Chicago to help my brother John and me pack up the Chicago apartment so that there would be nothing in the way or damaged while the renovations are in progress.

After a stressful couple days of packing and meetings John and I flew out to Seattle for some R&R with the Nicholson family on Pudget Sound. We had 5 fabulous days of boating, swimming, crabbing, reading, games and eating with the entire family. We couldn't have asked for better weather while we were there!
