So this weekend Xavier and Pippi decided to head off to the Shedd Aquarium. Their moms wondered what they were thinking trying to go to a busy tourist attraction on a Saturday afternoon, but decided to accompany them anyway. Marna, the expert blogger, brought her camera but was unable to capture a good shot of the kids’ fascination with the penguins. I think it was too dark...But they had a lovely time (minus the million strollers) and later returned to the Anello home to hang out. Pippi and Xavier will have to return when they realize that the fish are actually more exciting than the lights in the tanks.
Later that day Xavier had a visit from his uncle Gabe and aunt Tsubasa. He climbed all over them and then pulled up a chair to have his dinner alongside the four of us. He sat back and enjoyed the conversation. Then we were rather surprised when at the end of dinner he agreed with aunt Tsubasa about how delicious mango lassis are and let us know he wanted a taste to make sure. We thought he would make a silly face and decide he hated it...instead he opened his mouth and leaned in for more....and more...and more...oops, we created a monster. This MUST be a result of all those Indian food cravings during pregnancy.
