My short weekend in Seattle

[hannamaren]

In case you all wondered how it went.
The baby was great on the plane. Both ways. It was much easier on the way there with 2 aunts, and grandparents for passing her around.

It took her about 24 hours to adjust to the time difference (3hrs) she woke up at 4am the first day, but was in bed that night at her usual bedtime. (well, not in bed, in her stroller cruising)

For the wedding, she was the star of the show giggling and "ka"ing a couple times during the ceremony (we were told to be sure to have her in the ceremony) and then during the cocktail hour, we walked her around the block and she fell asleep. We left her with the hired babysitters and she slept all night. So my H and I had a fantastic time eating and dancing in peace.

Getting a suite at the hotel was a good idea. I missed our highchair seat because trying to feed a crawling baby is a disaster. Even changing a diaper on the floor leads to craziness. My H and I had to hold her down together!

We have been back for 24 hours and she slept in until 9am today (so nice) but I think by tomorrow, she will be awake at 7am or earlier, back to normal

All in all a great trip. Thanks for all the tips!

Sounds like a lot of fun. She looked adorable in the pictures
