I slept so good last night, but Lucas was up at 4:40. No surprise since that’s 6:40 Chicago time. He has a strong internal clock. Don’s mom was up at this time putting curlers in her hair. I was not thrilled.

We got breakfast downstairs at the hotel. It was ok. Then everyone hung out in our room for awhile before we took the monorail to the space needle. The space needle was pretty awesome. The views were great. We saw the revolving glass floor. Lucas really liked that.

Then we walked thru the Chihuly Garden and Glass. The glass was super pretty and incredible. After that we went to the Seattle Bites Festival. There were a bunch of food vendors. Lucas and Don had a corn dog. Estelle and I had chicken sandwiches. My parents found a cool event center that had restaurants. We all met up there.

Then Don and Estelle went back to the hotel and we went to check out the park with my parents. Kelsey, Jared, and Adeline went for a walk to try to get a nap for Adeline. There was a huge climbing thing with a couple slides. Then there was this activity where kids got in blown up balls and out in this little pool to play like bumper cars kind of. They looked like hamsters rolling around. Lucas wanted to do it but right when the guy filled up the ball he wanted to get out. So he gave us a voucher to do the trampoline thing. Lucas really liked that. Lucas was very tired, so we took the monorail back. My parents went to the Pike Place Market. Lucas and I relaxed in the room. Don and Estelle were picked up by one of their relatives. They went to look at some sights at a park outside the city. Then they went to dinner at a casino.

Lucas ended up taking a nap and he did not want to get up. I made him get up around 5, otherwise he would have just kept sleeping! But we can’t have him waking up at 4:30 again!

We decided to order some pizzas and we ate them in Kelsey and Jared’s room with mom and dad. After that Lucas and I came back to our room. He watched the Halloween Curious George movie. Then he read a few books before bed. He’s getting so good at sounding out words! It’s 8:30 and he just fell asleep. Here’s to sleeping in a bit more tomorrow!
