Grandma & Grandpa Visit Juneau!

Big thanks to Grandpa Lew and Grandma Val for their recent visit to Juneau, to meet Isaac for the second time.  They met him in Ohio at two months old, and now in Juneau at four months old.  Lots of book reading, song-singing, snuggling, diaper-changing, and babysitting galore ensued!  










We threw in a few hikes and outings around town in there, too, just for good measure.   We got a few days of beautiful weather and a few days of wet weather.  

Isaac debuted his new "rainy day" outfit (a gift from Laura in Cleveland) for one of the wetter days:




We went for a hike up Eaglecrest ski area...







...and out to Nugget Falls, near the Mendenhall Glacier.  

How many grandmas get to say they wore their grandson out to a glacier???  Go Grandma Val!


We also enjoyed time hanging out in Heritage Cafe downtown and the Northern Tea House in the valley.



Isaac introduced Grandma and Grandpa to the really nice swimming pool in the valley, including the channel walking and bubbles!  No pictures in the pool, but we snapped a couple of our little polar bear all bundled up after his time in the water.



Around the house, Maude and Isaac are becoming more acquainted.  Isaac is mystified by her, laughing at her yawns and her voracious eating habit.  


Isaac's first friends in the 'hood are Henry and Reed.  Reed (the red head) was actually one of Isaac's first visitors (with his mom, Shayna) after he was born.  These boys were so excited to meet our baby and they have been ever so sweet with him from the get-go.  We enjoyed a breakfast with their family on one of Grandma and Grandpa's last days in Juneau.
