Fun in Chicago

What a fun weekend! We hung out with my parents, had beautiful weather, ate TONS of delicious food, solved crossword puzzles together, and loved having an extra day off! Here are some shots from the WhiteSox game. Enjoy!






We walked to the park this afternoon. Meili especially loved the slides - the curvy one was her favorite. After the slide, she played in a sandbox for the first time. It was hilarious to see her trying to figure out what sand was - especially when she put a few handfuls of sand in her mouth.

5 tired kids

Is it possible to put five tired kids together and get them all to smile at the same time? Not today... Our nephew Benoit was baptized today (he's on the right.) It was so great to have all of the nieces and nephews together. Here are Grandpa and Grandma Kingma with all their grandkids.


Meili is really interested in trying things by herself. Here she's trying to figure out how to put her sandals on. She also knows how to hold her cup now and spends a lot of her dinner time taking tons of tiny drinks - just because she can!


An up-close look at the camera!

Better go.... Meili is supposed to be sleeping but she just woke up screaming!

tulip time

We went. We ate TONS of greasy, sugary food. We saw LOTS of tulips. It was a really fun day!
