Today is Daddy’s birthday! We had a fun weekend of celebrating St. Patty’s Day with friends on the south side… Maeve also tried her first avocado this weekend. We have posted pictures in the photo gallery!
Mommy’s first day back to work!
Our wonderful nanny, Zlatka started this week in preparation for Alexandra’s first day back to work. We had a few days together to get to know each other and Maeve loves her already!
Zlatka and Maeve had a great first full day today…and Mommy enjoyed her first day back very much. It couldn’t have gone any better…Maeve slept through the night and everyone at home and work was incredibly supportive. Thank you to everyone who has helped us through this transition – we really appreciate it!
Happy Birthday Grandma!
GO BEARS!
Well, they didn’t win, but Maeve enjoyed cheering for the Bears in the Superbowl…
We had a busy day on Friday visiting mommy and daddy’s offices and attending playgroups. Today we had Aunt Megan and Uncle Pat over before the game.
Photo gallery update
Unfortunately, Maeve and mommy did not make it to Grandma’s today due to snowy roads in Michigan. We will have to update the photo gallery instead. The files are dated to help you know the last time we added pictures to them.
This week…
It was a busy one. We got some snow, so we tried an exploration and learned that snow is cold and wet. Overall, Maeve was not fascinated by the snow.
Maeve and mommy were on the go this week traveling all over town to various appointments, lunch dates and classes. We held down the fort while daddy was in DC on business. In addition to our music and yoga classes, we had playdates with our friends Gaby and Ben, and Mia.
We also shopped on Michigan Ave. and visited mommy’s work friends one day, and shopped in Lincoln Park with our friend Lona. Maeve loves her new favorite toy – thank you Sage!
Four Months Old
Maeve turned four months old on Friday and to celebrate, she went shopping with mommy and Grand Aunt Peggy, and had a nice dinner with her parents. She loves her new wooden rattle toy with all its bright colors! Yesterday we continued the celebration at Pinky’s where all the girls (Aunts Megan, Katie, Anne and Peggy) got their nails done. Maeve really enjoyed the view from the pedicure chairs and was so good that mommy was able to get pampered too. This fun afternoon concluded with a nice walk and lunch at Uncommon Ground!
GO BEARS!!!

Maeve has had a busy couple of days. We went to a playgroup at our friends Amy & Mia’s house on Sunday and then had a fun visit with Aunt Megan yesterday. Today we are relaxing at home…although we did have fun sitting at the table together for lunch – Maeve was in her new highchair!
Sleep update
Maeve is such a good sleeper! She actually slept through the night the last three nights, and last night she had her longest stretch ever – from 8 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. We are so proud! She is enjoying visits with Grandma and Aunt April this weekend…
Maeve is almost 4 months old…
This is our attempt to catalog Maeve’s development and keep our friends and family updated on all of her exciting accomplishments! For example, she rolled over from her front to her back earlier this week. We also went to our first Lullabies music class today and had fun celebrating Aunt Katie’s birthday at Sola!
