Adventures in Teething

The rest of our time in Chicago was nice. I still had the bathroom to myself for sleep, but I "inherited" a pack-n-play which kept me off the ground for the rest of the trip. Mommy and Daddy even had their first "date night" since I came along, when Grandma & Grandpa Jo and David babysat for me (while I slept) while Mommy and Daddy went out for dinner. Rumor has it they even "tried" an alcoholic drink or two over dinner and dessert. I am glad they were able to go out alone for a bit.

Before my Minnesota grandparents left for home, we ate breakfast out at the famous Lou Mitchells and went all the way up to the top of the Sears Tower. I can officially say I have been higher up in the sky (in less than four months of life) than Daddy has because he was at a conference that day. Then Mommy and I got to check out Millennium Park which has this cool reflective "egg thing," which we photographed in fun ways. Look for us in the reflections!!

When we returned to Boston (I won't discuss the return flight in public, lets just say that I didn't make friends with everyone in my row), I picked up right where I left off. I am learning to sleep better now, having taken between 9 and 12 hour sleeps -- with only one break in the middle -- since we made our way back to JP. But....and this is a BIG but....I already have two bottom front teeth that have come in. Let me tell you that this is quite fun for Mommy and Daddy. All I want to do is teethe but I'm not quite old enough yet to figure out how to get the toys in my mouth to teethe on. Oh well...as you can see in the photos...I have figured out how to get my hand and fingers in my mouth. Gotta start somewhere. And lastly, but not leastly, I have found my feet. And I love my feet. Enjoy the photos.




















Can't wait for my first Turkey Day this week. Go Wolverines today!!! Love and miss everybody. XOXOXOXOXOXO.
