Add Another Marker to the Map - Nikos Visits State #2!

This past weekend we flew up to the Seattle area to attend Taki's brothers wedding. Mike and Christina got married in a beautiful ceremony in Christina's mom's house, complete with wonderful food and fantastic views of the mountains. We had a great time and have been really fortunate this year to travel to two great places (Snohomish, WA and San Diego, CA) for Taki's siblings weddings. What a big year for the Romios family!

Here's Nikos on his second plane ride - passed out. Unlike last time, he didn't sleep the entire flight but he also didn't cry at all which was a big relief for Taki and I (and our fellow passengers).

Before the wedding we went for a walk to Starbucks with Uncle Jeff and Aunt Annette. Nikos modeled the latest in baby snow gear (which makes him look giant!) and debuted his fun snow hat.

When we arrived at the wedding we were commenting on the fantastic view from Christina's house - beautiful mountains! Of course, by the time we got our act together to go outside and take a family picture they were hidden by the fog. Oh well - still beautiful anyway!

The new couple with Nikos.

So we've decided that Niko looks like my dad and Uncle Mike. Check out the photo below and see what you think (you'll have to look at the my dad-evidence in the Christmas post).

Nikos tried some new fruit at brunch - grapes and cantaloupe. When we got home I checked the book and discovered these ARE allowed after 6 months. Phew!

I had to put this one in there for Aunt Annette - I think it may rival the look he gave in the bathtub picture. (see October 31st post). I think he is pissed because I am telling the table how I carved a pumpkin and stuck him in it on Halloween.

Now he put on his angelic face.

After brunch we visited the 1st Starbucks ever, the Pike Place Farmers Market and the Space Needle. It was a fabulous weekend!
