Yay Zoe!!!

Today was a huge day in the list of life milestones for Zoe. For the first time ever she pooped in the potty!!! For the last week or so, she’s been pointing to her diaper and saying “di, di, di” a couple of minutes before she poops. We’ve been bringing her up to sit her […]

The Fourth

We had a fabulous holiday.  The day started with some iced coffee from Dunkin Doughnuts…I told you it was fabulous!  We then went to the Brookfield Parade.  They have the most fire engines and police cars than any other parade I’ve been too.  I would say there are at least 25 fire engines leading the […]

Backgammon

Zak and I play Backgammon most nights during dinner and Zoe loves to watch us and cheer us on.  She has a choice of rooting for “The Z Team” or “The Girl Team.”  (The Girl Team really needs a better name.)  She loves to help roll the dice once she’s done eating, so we recently […]

Duplos

Duplos are fun. [singlepic=4917,350,250] Duplos are more fun if you’re sitting in the Duplo container. [singlepic=4919,350,250]

The Taste

Well, I have to say that going to The Taste of Chicago was without a doubt my favorite day of this pregnancy so far. It was heaven. All the food. So yummy! We took the train down and Zoe enjoyed it quite a bit. It’s only a 20 minute ride, so it’s not long enough […]

A Dream

We are about to leave for any pregnant woman’s dream place (well those without morning sickness) : Taste of Chicago. All morning my mouth has been watering just thinking about the beer battered artichoke hearts, the stuffed olives, the pizza, the cheese fries, the Rainbow cones, the corn on the cob, the fried ravioli, the […]

Millennium Park

Yesterday Zoe and I met up with my parents on a (much delayed) Metra line downtown. (Zak was finalizing the paper mache project.) They were spending the night down there, but we went down for the day. We spent the afternoon and Millennium Park and had a great lunch at the Park Cafe. Then we […]
