PAWS of Chicago

Chris took me to meet his friend, Irene...and all the kittys and doggies at the shelter. Oprah is a supporter of this shelter (mom thought this was important). It was really nice. We stayed for a long time and I got to pet the kittys and doggies.

Chicago from a Stroller


Mom let me take pictures. Here are some of the ones I took. I call them "Chicago from a Stroller." Look for my gallery opening soon...








Lincoln Park Zoo Day



Today we spent the day at the Lincoln Park Zoo. The giraffes were the coolest according to daddy. There was an ostrich in there too. I was most fascinated by the sparrow that flew into the exhibit :P



Thank goodness the Olds brought the stroller because it sure was a lot of walking.

The warthogs sure were weird animals. Bordering on the ugly. Not at all like in The Lion King.









Smoosh the Buildings


Here is me smooshing the big skyscrapers. Smoosh.


Navy Pier

Ummmm....we took lots of pictures at Navy Pier because the views were so pretty. It was a beautiful day, sunny, warm and slightly windy. The Ferris Wheel was HUGE, and I really like the view.




Day 1 in Chicago


Our morning started out with us being Techno-geeks. I have to convince the Olds that I need a iTouch. I really like playing games on them. That is my mission.



We decided to spend part of our day at Navy Pier. We went there by train. It was my first time on public transportation in the city. I did good. Then we walked around, took pictures and rode the GIANT ferris wheel. I like looking at the big buildings.










Rhythm Gymnastics




I've been taking gymnastics with my friend Maddie. We have lots of fun and I've learned how to somersault, do a backbend, twirl a ribbon, balance a ball and jump rope (sort of). Mom says I do a really good job! I look forward to every Monday when I can go to class...

My Soccer Team


Here is my soccer team before we got our team shirts. I'm the only girl. Mom was worried that I wouldn't like it, but I am kicking ass! Go Gurrrl Power!
