Another week away and our return to summer camp in Chicago

We spent last week in Detroit welcoming the newest member of our family, Nathan! Daddy had to work quite a bit because it was the last week of the month, but we got to visit with the new parents and our little nephew as well.

Maeve spent most of her time with Nanna and Grandad, who helped us out so much! She enjoyed another trip to Greenfield Village, where they rode the steam engine train, the Model T Fords and the carousel. Maeve got to go mini golfing with her grandparents as well, and then on a boat ride to lunch and a bike ride around Wyandotte for ice cream another day! My mom and I were able to take her to a local pool, but mostly she loved playing with Duffy and Ophelia. There is a really cute video in the MobileMe Gallery of Maeve “reading” her new princess book to Ophelia!

We returned in time to stop by our block party so Maeve could go in the bouncy house and we’ve been enjoying this perfect summer weather at the local farmer’s market and pools. The Whealan pool we found today as we kicked off Altman Summer Camp this week is a perfect blend of zero depth entry, fun slides and spray toys, and the ability for Maeve to swim around with her life jacket on! We are hoping for trips to Brookfield Zoo and playdates with friends in the suburbs this week too… This weekend we are looking forward to some quality time to BBQ with our cousins!
