We had a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend with grandparents, aunts and uncles on hand to help celebrate! We even planted a new tree in our front yard to commemorate the special occasion – thanks Grandma! A team of 20 friends and family (and Duffy!) participated in the Y-Me walk for breast cancer. Team FAFA photos can be seen in the photo gallery and here:
Maeve has been busy trying new fruits (peaches, plums), veggies (green beans, corn), and even chicken. She also appears to love cheese as much as mommy does. She has been exhibiting lots of new purposeful and very loud babbling, including something that sounds like “baba” which Chris says means “daddy” in Chinese.
Daddy was traveling this week and the girls held down the fort. Maeve and Zlatka spent lots of time in the park having picnics and meeting new people. Today Maeve and mommy had a fun time at breakfast and Wiggleworms with our friends, and enjoyed our first trip to the Lincoln Park Zoo – the meerkats were Maeve’s favorite! Tomorrow, she celebrates being 8 months old. We have swimming class in the morning and Auntie Anne is coming to babysit while mommy and daddy get dressed up for a night on the town to benefit Erikson Institute.
There are many folders with new pictures in the photo gallery… Hope everyone has a great weekend!
I think that the photo of you in your new sun hat
and playing with the colored rings should be submitted for the next photo contest. An absolute winner. love nanna and grandad
