Day 204

We were in the city today and enjoyed story time at the zoo, and then went to the farm at the zoo.  Nolan loved the big John Deere tractor, playing in the big tires, and seeing the dairy cows, baby chickens, and pony.

Day 203

Avery enjoying her Butterfly Rocking Chair!

Day 202

Today Nolan awoke and declared that Avery is a princess, and then asked to have his picture taken with her.  I guess all my picture taking is rubbing off on Nolan.  They are my prince and princess and I LOVE THEM sooooo much!

Day 201

Happy Father's Day!  

Happy Father's Day to My Wonderful Husband!  I took this picture of my boy's yesterday.  Todd you are an amazing father and husband.  Nolan and Avery LOVE you to pieces!  I LOVE YOU!  Thank you for filling our lives with love and laughter.  Thank you for all your support and guidance in raising our two adorable children.

Day 200

I LOVE MY BOYS!

This morning we visited the farmer's market by the Lincoln Park Zoo, and then headed over to the zoo to see the animals.  That was all by 11am.  It is sure nice to be living in the city.

Day 199

Nolan LOVED a sprinkle park I found in the city.  He did not want to leave!  
We also visited the Shedd Aquarium with Grandma and Grandpa Hassman, Aunt Cheryl, Kaylee, Aunt Joyce, and Geri.  Then we enjoyed a nice dinner with everyone including Grandma and Grandpa Pat at Lillie Q's in Wicker Park. 

Day 198

Wrigley instantly remembered her old stomping grounds she sniffed the place out and went to the front door, she wanted to sit out and watch the people walk by like she used too!  But what I didn't realize was that at 7 years of age, and bad back legs, she really wouldn't be able to handle lying on the hardwood.  She cried the first night, and we had to help her up one time...so we went out and bought her a dog bed.  This did the trick she was happy to have her little "pad" in the city.
