In Missoula

After a leisurely drive along the Montana Scenic Loop, we made it to Missoula. We first walked along the river some and dipped our feet (and Georgie's) in. There were a lot of people out fly-fishing. Then we went downtown, got some coffee, and found an amazing children's store called Whippersnappers. We went a little overboard, but Nikki finally found a sling she likes (made by a local company called Sprout Pouch) and we found a very nice little hat for Georgie.

We just got back from making a pizza (Bridge Pizza) and beer (from Worden's market) run. Missoula is so wonderful. We are staying just down the river from our honeymoon hotel and we have a riverside balcony. Tomorrow morning we'll meet up with friends and go to the farmer's market. Then we are going to a store that sells cloth diapers, the first time we've shopped for them in person and not on the internet.

George's new hat. Also visible is Nikki's new sling. She liked it so much that I ended up wearing an empty Beco carrier for about two hours.

From Nikki: We looked at the sling web site, and it turns out I got the model named "The Nicole." They have one man-style one (solid black on one side, solid brown on the other), and it's named "The Aaron." Nice coincidence.
