Brookfield Zoo

We love going to the zoo with the kids and since we have a season pass we go quite a bit. Each time we go we try to see different things. So far this summer we have been to Stingray Bay, the Butterfly Garden, the new Bear exhibit and Hamil Family Play Zoo. Today we went on the Carousel as well which is always a lot of fun. I think we have seen all the animals this summer having been there at least 5 times. Evi's favorite is Stingray Bay and Robert really loves Hamil Family Play Zoo. I think baby boy just likes the zoo.





Don't fall in!


Such a happy guy.

Beach Baby

On Sunday I tool the kids (with my parents) to Centennial Beach in Naperville. We had never been there before and found it to be a really fun place to take the kids. Evi and Robert enjoyed swimming in the "lake" as well as playing in the sand. I hope to go back again this summer with the whole family. That is if I can convince Jeremy to come with.





I'm pretty sure she was in Heaven.

This is pure Evi!

This is his face after Robert dumped water on his head.

I love when they come down the stairs like this.
