About those last couple of months...

Packing for Chicago.


Flying to Chicago.


Ah, now that's what I call summer.


Riding the 'el' to the Sears Tower. Now that's what I call Chicago.




Fun in Holland, MI.









And back to Chicago for "The Emperor's New Clothes" at the Shakespeare Theater.


Aw, what the heck. Since we're here let's ride the ferris wheel.


Still my little bundle...


..but already two years old!




It's good to have a younger cousin.




Bye-bye Chicago! See you again soon!

July heat and rain

Fourth of July







So hot!





So much rain!




GO SPAIN!


GO FRANCE!

Mommy camp

We had a great two weeks of camp in the city, starting with a carriage ride around historic Philadelphia. (Leo is saying AND signing "cheese.")


Leo's favorite field trip was the observation deck at the top of City Hall


where he discovered a love for aerial photography! (He took many, many more pictures than these.)





Leo drew a picture of his wedding.


They traded Chicago sports outfits one day..


We tried to stay cool in the car


in the Magic Gardens on South Street




at the diner


at the sprayground


and feeding baby ducks in the woods.


We did a lot of climbing in Rittenhouse Square






and handled the attack of the giant lollipops well




Hey kids! Get down from that street sign!


Linvilla Orchards










Smith Playground






We all had fun at Mommy camp. Including Mommy!
