Steve has returned

Patrick LOVES finding Steve each morning. He so wants to believe in Santa. The other day he found him and said “I need to talk to Steve.”  I asked him why and he said “To tell him what I want for Christmas…so he can tell Santa!” Then he paused and realized what he said. It was cute. But I’m glad we waited till they were older to introduce the Elf! I would have had to convince him Santa isn’t real for a long time! Anyway, here was the situation this morning:

Patrick: "Aaahhh. Mac is going to be so mad. He stole Mac's iPod!

One of the best days ever

At Thanksgiving Nicki, Nate, Kimberly and I decided to meet up this past weekend and head down to Wrigley for our pic in front of the marquis announcing the Cubs as World Series Champions. It couldn’t have been a more perfect day. We headed downtown and enjoyed a day of walking around Wrigley, shopping and eating at the Cubby Bear. Perfect.

A hole in Wrigley!

Once we finished our day at Wrigley, we stole Nate for more shopping in the burbs.

Perfect way to end the day.

I can’t thank Shannon, Kimberly, Nicki and Nate enough for making the day possible! 🙂
