To celebrate my birthday, Todd and I decided to be brave and spend the weekend in Portland, with 5 week old Kate! Friday evening we took the train down. It was a beautiful ride..the sun was setting and miss Kate hardly made a peep! When we got off, a couple people even commented on how good she was. That made us feel like super-star parents! :) We stayed at this great hotel--the front desk upgraded our room AND gave us a complimentary bottle of wine. It was such a nice and unexpected treat. We spent Saturday walking around the Pearl district and going to the Saturday market. That evening, Todd took us out to dinner at a great restaurant. He had octopus and rabbit, and while my choices were predictably more conservative, I did try his more adventurous meal (which was actually pretty good!). Again, Kate was well behaved!
Sunday we spent the day walking through Washington Park. The trees were so beautiful, with the leaves changing colors. It was sunny and warm...a perfect fall day! Kate loved all the walking that we did--especially because her daddy was carrying her the whole time!
We had a such a lovely time.
Enjoy some pictures of our trip.
Love, Julie
