We have had a fun past week with some new found friends, a fun visit to Chicago to meet up with our favorite Philly/New-Yorker and being amazed at how wonderful Brooklyn is!
Thursday Trey's cousin-in-law Kevin came into Chicago for work and had a few hours Thursday afternoon so we met up with him and had lunch and walked around the windy city. We're getting to know the streets better and discovering more "fun-finds" with him. It was just great to hang out with him - a truly wonderful guy! We missed you Amber though! (This is "triple threat trey man" writing about this- Notice the drinks we are holding, well we went to a Chinese drink place and ordered these great smoothies that we drank everyday in Taiwan and told Kevin just to "trust us." At the bottom of each cup were these questionable little squishy balls. Kevin inquired about them, but again we just said, "trust us." Wouldn't you know it, he tried a few!! We started busting out laughing telling him they were fish eyes!!! They were just delish tapioca balls, but needless to say, I believe Kevin has had enough balls in his cup for a while now! Kevin we thoroughly enjoyed your company and hope to see you and Amber soon....end of Dr. Tre' comments.)
Monday we had some freinds from Church over for dinner. They have an adorable little girl who is about 5 months older than Brooklyn, so Brooklyn was working hard to keep up - she loves other little kids and Piper was no exception. She kept on her heels the whole night. On Saturday We did a Mom's day out and we went up to Lake Michigan for the Sandcastle competition. Brooklyn was a blast getting into all the sand and even going into the water. Piper was hilarious though. She would freak out if she got a single grain of sand on her!

We weren't able to get a good video of Brooklyn booting it up or down the stairs like she usually does because as soon as the camera comes out, she's more interested in us than the stairs, I've tried to download the one we got, but can't figure it out. She says Dada all day
Don't worry family, Brooklyn is not going to forget you! I made a big poster board with all your pictures on it. We go through it almost daily for a few minutes and I point out who's who for her.
