Christmas

Here are some photos from Christmas day, it was just the three of us in the morning and then Matt's parents and brother came over to our place. It was a lovely day! 

Christmas Eve

Here are some photos from our Christmas Eve with the Widholms. Henry is officially obsessed with his cousins! He loves playing with them and watching their every move. He was especially fond of giving Miles hugs:) 

Shedd Aquarium

We braved the cold (like a high of 12 degrees!) and took Henry on his first visit to the Shedd Aquarium on Monday. It's one of my favorite museums in town and it's so great that Henry is old enough to enjoy these types of excursions! He was mesmerized by all of the creatures (especially jellyfish) and people and did lots of pointing and waving.

Christmas time is here

The weekend after Thanksgiving we took Henry to the Christkindlmarket and met the Widholms. Matt and I shared a mug of Gluwein and a pretzel but we didn't have time for much more as there were about 5 million other people there:) Hopefully we can make it once more before Christmas!

I took Henry to see Santa last weekend, I wasn't sure how he would react. He was definitely curious but once he touched Santa's beard he was ready to leave. The closest he got was the armrest before he started reaching for me!

Happy Thanksgiving!
