Vivian

After we finally got rid of Amy and her kids left on Saturday, we headed down to Tacoma for a visit with the newest Reading and her parents.

We hadn't seen her since her third day on the planet, so we were unbearably anxious to hold her again.

And she didn't disappoint.  What a sweetie!!
She is so content with such a pleasant disposition.  It's nice to see that her Grandpa contributed to her personality.

We sat outside on Jeff and Niki's lovely patio and enjoyed the sun and the baby.

Then we set out for dinner at a sushi restaurant.  You couldn't ask for a better baby.
The server brought a high chair that was turned upside down to hold her infant seat.
Vivi promptly fell fast asleep (tragically unphotographed) and we enjoyed a terrific meal.

Jeff had purchased tickets to the Tacoma Rainiers baseball game, so Vivi finally got to see a game.  The sun was pretty bright, so she needed the proper accoutrements.

Pretty cool stadium.

Seriously - this is the only way to watch a game.

And once you realize that you're not in the sun, you can remove the shades and don the hat.

Baseball games do move at a rather leisurely pace....

And so she napped for a couple innings.

Some pitchers are six-inning guys, some are seven-inning guys.
We had a five-inning baby.  So we went back home to get her into bed.

Nana and Grandpa got to stay in Jeff and Niki's spare room, so we had some extra Vivi time on Sunday.
Apparently, Vivi was full of smiles in the morning but Grandpa slept late and missed them.  No photos either.

But in the van on the way to breakfast, Nana got some smiles.  It's her specialty.

And the little darling (Vivi) was a perfect baby in the restaurant again.

She has the biggest eyes and just locks in on you when she looks at you.

And what is sweeter than a baby sleeping?

Her Nana made her a beautiful quilt, so we needed to get some photos on Vivi on it.

We miss her already and cannot wait to see her again.

Sorry for the lack of photos of Vivi with her grandparents.
Jeff took some and I am hoping to get them from him soon.
So watch this space for updates.
