Barbershop Quartet



Well not exactly...only 2 got haircuts, but there are 4 in this picture :)
Angelo from Italy gave Miles his first pro haircut. Not a baby anymore...that's for sure.

Race Day







Henry's first race!! He did several, the 440 and the 50 yd. dash. He received more ribbons than I did! He was very excited and I'm glad he enjoyed himself. Great weather, great course. I hadn't tried the Reed's lake run before and was looking forward to this one. Never saw the lake on the course, but the scenery was beautiful and I shaved over 2 minutes from my last 10k.

Triumphant







My friend Maya and I decided to try a train into the city outing with all the kids. Great behavior, great weather, and some belly busting laughs were all enjoyed. We took a train, a water taxi, and walked. The kids tent at Millennium Park was great this year, we really enjoyed the Forest Preserve area with turtles, tadpoles, water bugs and tiny toads to see. The fountain was a refreshing break. Lunch was civilized and yummy and super easy for me, as Miles slept thru it in his stroller. The kids all listened well for safety and held hands cutely. I decided the only thing we missed was toting our own little adult beverage for the train ride home which we so deserved. We'll remember that detail next time.

New Buffalo Beach


Spent the day with our friends in New Buffalo. Kids really enjoyed the beach, the chilly water, and their friends. Great weather, great company and great moods....except when it was time to say our goodbyes. :)
