The Pumpkin Patch

Ingrid will take any chance she can to give other babies big slobbery kisses. The sad thing for her is that the other babies don't normally appreciate her advances. Theo did a pretty good job tolerating them though.

Lookin' good, Theo. Lookin' good. 

p.s. I tried to make these look a bit like the filter I use in Instagram. Don't think I was too successful. Ha ha.

Will & Rebecca's Wedding

First, there was a simple, sweet ceremony in the the Chicago LDS Temple. Then there was a luncheon in this beautiful light filled downtown restaurant* overlooking the river. A day to remember.

New Town, New Tastes

While in Chicago for Will & Rebecca's wedding, we were able to spend a day walking down "The Magnificent Mile" and going on an architectural boat tour. It's a beautiful city and the weather was surprisingly perfect.

Right before we left on this trip, the pediatrician told us that we could start feeding Ingrid from the table, without worrying about allergies. Since we were on vacation, we may have gone a bit overboard, giving her bites of Chicago-style pizza, doughnuts, hamburger, sorbet, etc... She did manage to eat a few healthy foods that weekend, too, though! :)
