Design Harvest festival

We took Henry to the Design Harvest festival last weekend and had a great time! He took a major spill earlier in the morning that left him with a scraped up face but that didn't stop him from loving his first hay ride and live band experience.

Fall is here!

We just got back from our annual trip to Hayward, Wisconsin. The weather was even cooler up there so it really felt like Fall. It was wonderful to be in the woods for a few days! Here are some photos from earlier in September and then from our trip. Looking forward to taking Henry to an apple orchard soon!

August pt.2

I had a lovely day away with my girlfriends. Here we are on the architecture boat tour!

not close to actually using it but testing out his new potty

these two played in the cardboard box for close to an hour!

finally taking the plunge at the park splash pad

grandma, grandpa and grandkids (miles is really into photobombing these days)

playing in the submarine at the shedd aquarium

he now does this cheesy smile on command and I love it!

Where did August go??

Well, so much for posting more often! This summer has flown by and now it's September. We had a great visit with my parents who flew out from California. We've also been trying to get Henry out and about as much as possible because this kid has endless amounts of energy!
I'll break up the photos into a couple posts, here's round 1.

tail of a red panda, too bad I missed its face- so cute!

new playground at the garfield park conservatory- we love it there!
