Happy Birthday, Sarah!

Last Friday, my cousin Sarah's boyfriend John surprised her with a sushi dinner with friends and family. I was a half hour late thanks to the horrible 20 minute storm we had (It took me almost 45 minutes just to get to the highway from my place ... good thing I left super early!), but soon enough the weather cleared and it was a beautiful night to be out and about in Chicago.

Those Lashes!

Last week at Grammy and Grandpa's, Kyle got a hold of my old Daisy Duck hat from Disneyland. He loves hats, and this one fit perfectly. Daddy wasn't as thrilled as I was. Since then Daisy has been replaced with both a Donald and a Goofy hat (both Uncle Kevin's), although we have no pics to prove that :) I think it's cute :)

First Full Day of Work!

Yesterday was my first full day of work, and Kyle's first full day with Auntie Robo. The two of them had lots of fun, visiting our neighborhood park for a whole hour. Here's an ubber cute pic I received from their adventures :)

Letters!

Airplane Arms!

Chris is traveling this week, so Ky and I decided to practice our airplane arms at the park this afternoon. He's getting the hang of it ...

Happy 1st Birthday, Olivia!

August has definitely been the month of birthdays. Saturday we met up with our Loyola friends again to wish Ms. Olivia a happy first birthday at the Peggy Notebart Nature Museum in Lincoln Park. It was a very girly affair. Lots of pretty pinks and pastels. Kyle was in love with the giant pink balloons. They were the most perfectly round balloons I have ever seen. He dragged two of them around most of the time, saying "Circle, Circle."

Hello Rashmi and Roshan!

Friday after work, Kyle, Chris, and I finally got to meet Roshan - Chris's college friend, Rashmi's little 1-year-old son. Kyle and Roshan had a lot of fun together. Roshan's birthday's in February, so they are only a few months apart. The only unfortunate event happened when Ky followed Roshan into the dirt. Unlike Roshan, Kyle was unable to control himself and just had to sample the dirt - we're talking black tongue, black hands sampling. YUCK. Well the good news is that a little dirt never hurt anybody. At least there were no rocks involved. Good to see you Rashmi!
