Kyra came to visit!!! It was SO much fun to have another person to hang out with here in Chicago.
And, she brought Joseph!
We had a good time :)
We went on a walk.
This was only one of the MANY puddles Joseph insisted we stop to play in. "Get in puddle?" This boy LOVES to put his feet in water. |
Joseph is a really smiley boy :) |
Joseph discovered the pigeons. He was in love. |
We made our way through the city and over to Millenium Park
We made our way back on the Blue Line and Joseph just passed out fast asleep. He was one tired boy. |
Joseph loved hanging out with his uncle Derek. This was on our way to the swimming pool. You can bet Joseph was excited :)
(In fact, we actually went swimming twice. The first day Kyra was here, it was pretty cloudy. But this didn't stop Joseph from wanting to swim. So we went out to the pool and it actually started raining! Still, Joseph played happily through the sprinkling. Eventually it began to pour pretty heavily and it was time to go in. This made for a very sad Joseph.)
We went again the next day and this time Derek got to come too :)
Matching swimsuits! |
It's always really sad when you have to come in after swimming. :( |
We loved having Kyra and Joseph here! I was able to learn a couple things:
-Swimming is way more fun when you don't move past the first three steps.
-Nap time is great for two-year-olds, and even better for adults.
-Kyra makes amazing breadsticks
-Movies are better when you watch the same scene multiple times. "Again?" "Again?" But seriously...Joseph had dance moves each time so it was awesome.
-To ride the bus is to have your wildest dreams come true.
-One can be entertained for hours when watching for planes. (good thing we live right by the airport!)
-Sometimes you have to be sneaky and spell certain words like P-U-D-D-L-E or G-R-A-P-E-S
-Bedtime is a tragedy.
