Day Three

We started the day off bright and early again!  This time at 5:00 am (7:00 am our time), you popped your head up!!!  We all went down for breakfast and waited for Sean to pick us up.  Today wasn't going to be as long or stressful (so I thought!!!)  We started off all together getting pictures taken of our face, feet and hands and getting weighed!!!  You were a trooper through all of this because you got to stay with me!!! 

After the pics, I had to head to the hospital for an MRI and you went with Gran and Gramp while they had their blood drawn.  Daddy went with me and waited while I was in the MRI.  They brought you over to the hospital to see if you would do an MRI after mine.  I thought since we are here, we might as well try.  All of this playing below went on in the waiting room while I was having my MRI!!!  Love these pictures of you and Dr. Ari and Jenn playing!!!

 So after my MRI, I came out to get you.   I didn't think it was that bad so I thought just maybe with me by your side, you would do it.  So we got you ready.  I promised you a trip to ride the carousel that afternoon if you would lay still.  We both put on our headphones.  We showed you the big tunnel you were going to go in and watch Clifford.  You would nod your head and say you were ready, but then when we would lay you down to put your head in the helmet, you would let us have it!!!  So Mama went in the little bitty tunnel with you!!!  This was an experience to say the least!  I sang at the top of my lungs trying to sing over the noise and trying to keep you calm and still.  You weren't scared with me in their with you, but you WOULD NOT STAY STILL!!!  I feel so sorry for Dr. Ari, Sean and the MRI tech having to listen to the Peanut Song, the Wheels on the Bus, the Itsy Bitsy Spider and many, many more!!!  They were all laughing so hard when we came out!  They said that was definitely a first - an adult getting in the MRI with a child!!!  They gave us an "A+" for effort!!!  They said that hopefully they got one picture of your brain that they could use!!!  After the MRI we headed to the carousel as promised!!!!

After your promised carouse rides, we went to the infamous Pike Place Market.  This was a hike up hill!  Look at this nice set of stairs we got to climb!  You had it made on your Daddy's shoulders!  Gran and I struggled!!!

But the view once we got up the stairs was worth it!  GORGEOUS!  And of course it was a photo opp!

We finally made it to Pike Place and had a picture on the famous "Golden Pig" which you weren't too enthused about!!!

We saw this clown making balloon hats as we were going in and you had to have one!!!

Pike Place Market was just like I expected!  We did get to see the guys throwing fish and yelling prices.  You also got to see this little fish that scared you just a little bit.  The guy behind the counter would make it move in the ice and you were not too sure about it!  Of course, Daddy, Mama, Gran and Gramp thought it was hilarious!!!

After Pike Place, we rode the monorail to the Space Needle for dinner!

Dinner at the Space Needle was definitely not the best dinner we had while in Seattle, but the view was amazing!

After dinner we were all so tired especially Daddy and Gramp, but Gran and I made them go up to the outside deck to look around.  We took a few pictures and left. 

 I guess you and Daddy were too enamored with the view to look at the camera!!!

And just look how happy your Gramp is to be on top of the Space Needle!!!  He was so worried that we were going to miss our ride back to the hotel!  He had us running down the streets of Seattle after a bus!!!
