My loves


Last week we met Nicole, Joey, and Jack at the Garfield Conservatory in Chicago.  It is such a great place to explore, and it's free!  We'll def. be back there, especially in the winter.  It'll be like an outdoor escape. 


This week, we decided to declare war on this ridiculous amount of rain...so we headed to the Dupage Children's Museum on Monday.  It was Caitlin's first time really being able to play and explore. 
She's at the perfect age for lots  more trips there!!!
"Look Mom, I'm standing!"
In the past 2 weeks, the girls really started playing together.  As Rob says, it's probably the thing that makes me happiest in life!

Uh, a bathroom door????  I know, it's weird.  But it's the first time Abigail ever went into a bathroom by herself (they have kiddie bathrooms) and she seemed very old to me!  I think she's offically ready for preschool!

And last but not least, check our our new ride!!!!  Our Swagger Wagon!  It's a Honday Odyssey, and we LOVE it!  The color is slate green (it looks silver).  This weekend it'll be making it's first of many, many, many trips to Indiana!!!!  IAnd I'm pretty sure I'll be driving while the 3 kids are in the back watching movies (2 little kids, 1 really big kid)!
"Wagon Queen Family Truckster...You may hate it now, but wait till you drive it!"
"It's a beaut, Clark!"
"Now, I owe it to myself to tell you, Mr. Griswald, that if you are thinking of taking the tribe cross-country, this is your automobile."

Welcome to the MINIVAN club! You'll love it!

I can't believe how big Caitlyn is already. Geez. They are both so cute! And wait until they start having little conversations together! It's priceless!

Please request a personalized license plate with SWAGR. Hysterical. Love the pics of them from DCM. Esp on that chair. I will email the pics from Garfield Park soon! They would be a cute addition to the blog.
