Soccer

Mom of the Year award, right?  It only had a drop left.

Can you see it, the baby carriage?

the 3/4 circle with the two circles below...Josh told me that he created a stroller, but I think he meant a baby carriage...with the blue triangle being the push bar.  He also stacked 8 differently colored puzzle pieces in color order without any prompting either.  He's smart I tell you.

There's a Monkey running around the neighborhood!

Josh insisted on wearing his too small monkey costume around the neighborhood on our evening store...he was actually warmer than my mom, so I guess it was ok!

Backseat antics

Surprisingly we haven't lost this pair of sunglasses yet.  Can't say that about my own pair(s).

since Josh got a chocolate milk box, Caitlyn insisted on one too...

just a day in the life...

she insisted in eating at the table with no high chair; luckily it hasn't happened again since

Walking back from the bookmobile on a rainy day...since it was National Bookmobile Day, we got a balloon.

We're going to the Zoo, Zoo, Zoo!

She LOVES this car.  Predictably, every time we get in or out of the real car, she head straight over to this car and climbs in.

Finally a warm day, and we didn't have anything scheduled so we went to the zoo.  Since Caitlyn knows a lot of animal sounds, I wanted to make sure to check out some of those animals specifically.  Monkeys were first on our adventure

Waiting for the dolphin show.  Yes, Josh is dressed in rain gear, and no we were not in the splash zone; since it was overcast, he was sure it was going to rain.  Luckily it didn't; though it was VERY windy.

Having a little lunch while waiting for Josh to get out of his park district class.

Mirror Mirror

Jared ran in the shamrock shuffle this morning, so we met him downtown for brunch.  Since there was a long wait, Jared took the kids over to Millennium Park to play while I waited.

Happy 34th Birthday Jared

I thought the daffodils were beautiful

What party isn't complete without a balloon!

Actually Jared's birthday cake looked much better last year, though it was DELICIOUS this year.

Indoor Gym for Tots

Tunnel Vision

There is an indoor gym for tots in Palatine that Caitlyn and I have been able to go to while Josh is in Preschool.  Cuz apparently it's never going to warm up here!  She loves the mini hoops
