Windy City

We took a trip to Chicago this past week. We thought hey we will only live this close once so we might as well go. It was an okay trip. Very expensive and we aren't much for the city...We went to an aquarium and that is a picture of C looking at the dolphins jumping while she was standing in my lap. We also saw the cubs and braves play. She did so great!!! I was really worried about what I was going to do with her. Well, she was so tired that she just chilled in my lap the whole time!! It was great. Then she got to the car and CRASHED! Fun times.

Strawberry Picking

Near our house is a place called Eckert's Farm and we LOVE to go there and pick things. We have been to pick pumpkins and this weekend we went to pick strawberries. While you are picking it is all you can eat. C took advantage of this the most since she just loves strawberries. We picked a huge bushel and they were so yummy. When we got home we realized there was no way we could eat all those strawberries before they went bad so we gave some to neighbors. After we picked strawberries we went and had some frozen custard (an illinois speciality) We all enjoyed that as well. You can see C loved it too--It's all over her face. The weather is finally getting warm. It was in the 80's today. Where has it been for so long!!!

Family Cuddle

Well, maybe partial family cuddle because Abby and I were not a part of the fun. Aren't they cute?

New Hair do

Finally, C-Bear has a ponytail! We've have been dealing with crazy hair for a few weeks now and i think we have a solution. She actually leaves it in her hair maybe in a few days we will try to add a bow.
