We spent the day playing at the Silker pond - Dylan had a blast!! We played in the sand, did some frog catching, floated in the pond, rode Aunt Deb's tractor & had a picnic lunch!
We drove into the city to visit Shelly & Ryan and went to the Lincoln Park Zoo! It was Elliott's first time :)
Dylan had so much fun at his third birthday party over the weekend! We had so many family & friends come to help him celebrate! He is a lucky boy! We have sooo many pictures of the party :) To see more pics click "Read More"
This weekend we had Elliott baptized at the Saturday night service. We had dinner at our house before and then cake & drinks after! It was a great celebration with family!
We spent both Wednesday and Thursday night in the hospital! :) Here are some pictures from our stay! :)
Grandma, Aunt Shelly and Aunt Genna took Dylan to the Rockford Children's Museum today! He loves it there! They said his favorite part was changing the tires on a car - he is quite the mechanic!!
We painted the whole upstairs! Thank goodness we had a lot of help - me being pregnant and Drew having a broken hand really made us pretty useless! It looks amazing we are so so happy! Now we are going to move Dylan over to his new room and get the nursery ready for baby girl!
We had a great Christmas! Church, then hanging out at the Farm and eating/opening presents! Santa came to our house in the morning (Dylan was very nervous about him coming - he kept saying "Santa just drop presents off"). Drew got us a new bunny named Muffy! :) Then we went over to the Hempen house for breakfast and more Santa presents!!
We went to the city to celebrate Shelly's birthday with her!! We went to the beach and did some paddle boarding - whoa really hard with all the wind and waves! Then we went back to her apartment to have some dinner and cake! :) Happy Birthday Shelly - we love you!!!
I had an amazing birthday weekend! We started out with the Run for Gus in the city! Shelly and I ran together the whole time and Genna, Uncle Donny, Dylan and a ton of my friends were there too! Then we had a sleepover at Shelly's apartment and rode around on the brown line in the morning - Dylan LOVED it! Then Dylan went back home with Uncle Donny for a sleepover and Shelly and I spent the day together just hanging out. At night we headed over to the Lincoln Park Zoo for drinks and fun! We went out after it was over and then Drew and I drove home after midnight! :) The next day we had a fun party at our house for my real birthday - we did some slip and slide and cooked out! :)
We went to the city to hangout with Shelly & Ryan and to go to the Cubs/Cards game! We had a ton of fun! Genna & Steven came to join us later too!
We had a great fourth of July! We started the day with making some cool American flag pallet and I did a super long run in the hot hot sun! Then we went over to Gail's house to hangout and party! :) Dylan made it to his first fireworks and he really liked it!!
Some fun stuff from the end of May! Fishing with Uncle Donny's class, going to the zoo and visiting Jenie and finding out she is having a baby girl!!!
We had a fun Bulls themed party to celebrate Dylan's second birthday! (And Drew's 27th birthday of course!)
