The Happiest Baby on Huron Street

Chicago feels like a war zone right now, but earlier today we were bathed in the peaceful Wisconsin sun. #merica #shesafraidoffireworks #andparades #maybeshescanadian (at Wisconsin)

Happy Easter! This was Thea's first time dyeing eggs. Success!

Reunited after a (not so) long winter. Someone is excited for Chicago Park District to turn the water back on but that's months, and about forty degrees, away!

Our little rockstar after her rock n roll birthday.

According to daycare, this picture is called "I love pigtails".

Someone's pretty happy to be facing foreword. Another milestone.

This little big girl is two! #finallygotabarretteinherhair #barrettelasted15seconds

It's been a while! Sorry for our lack of posts, we have been busy! Here are some recent shots of Thea on our trip to the Garfield Park Conservatory. It was so beautiful and Thea loved smelling the flowers.

Christmas in July? We took a walk to the beach on Christmas Eve. It was so warm but a little stormy. Kian and Thea still loved feeling the sand in their hands.

Santa Ninjas and Grandpa! Here is a shot from Christmas Eve where the cousins all wore matching pajamas. Too much cuteness!

This guy was a total pro. #santaphotobomb

A Girl and Her Sponge: Thea has officially done more cleaning than me in 2015 thanks to her newfound sponge obsession. No complaints here.

Hangin' With the Big Guy: You may notice that one of us looks a little less happy than the rest. Santa had the same persistence of his hard working elves as he tried to get a picture with Thea. In this one, she didn't know that he was behind us. It was genius. Thank you, Santa!

First Snow! Thea had a great time at the park enjoying the first snow.

Just a Little Mother-Daughter Morning Yoga: No question about it, Thea is much better at yoga than Mama!
