thanks for the leggos, poppa

really ready for bed

ready for my "vacation"

i love this photo

for some reason
i don't know why...

emmit's whoobie

the field museum

this post is a little out of order. this weekend micah had to work (as well as i). micah had an event he produced at millennium park. the company who owns jim bean had a tent at GOURMET CHICAGO. it's like the taste of chicago but, well, gourmet. tickets are $250 but once in, everything is paid for. morton's steakhouse had steak sandwiches (which looked really good), absolut vodka had martinis, and all the vineyards had wines, ect... we took a lap around the event saturday night before going to our dinner reservations at shaw's crab house. (both were out of this world!) needless to say, we had to find a caregiver or 2 for emmit. we met the buenzow's at champs grille in northbrook on thursday night to drop emmit off. uncle keith then took care of all 3 kids on friday before a call was put in to gramma, "MOM, I'M NOT DOING SO GOOD." that's code for "what time do you get home from work?" gramma took over friday night and saturday night (which was the plan anyway, it just started a few hours earlier). sounded like everyone had a good time, though. finally, we met up with the parchims on sunday and went to see the PIRATE exhibate at the field museum. fun. fun. fun.

this is how i roll now-a-days

this is what we did

IT'S MICHAEL JACKSON!!!

keith sent me this picture on friday.
i had to text back and ask, what is
ethan doing?

playing with henry

ok, ok, i know i've been a little backlogged...
i FINALLY learned how to get the pictures
off my (not so new) phone. these are taken
when we had reviews for work. we all had
a 2o min meeting with the bosses on a
monday (yes, our day off). deana and i
decided to schedule our times back-to-back,
b/c we had our boys. we met at our house,
then went to the park, then on to the salon.
so, when my meeting with the michaels was at 2p,
deana would watch emmit and henry and when deana's
meeting was at 2:2o, i watched the boys. blah blah
blah... sell more shampoo...

peek-a-boo!

the baseball game

it always starts off the same way: what are we doing this weekend? not sure. oh yeah, nothing. well, better make sure i snap a few pictures for the blog... and here you go. more than a few. micah went to the sox game saturday night with the boys for a bachelor party leaving home emmit and me. no big deal. we ordered in pizza and turned the game on for the last few innings. once i did that, BOTH my boys were at comiskey!

hello, poppa?
