Busy Weekend

A lot of activity this weekend...Saturday Xavier climbed all over every surface at his activity class. He had his own cheering section, two aunts that came to watch. That afternoon we sat on tia's grass after shopping at her garage sale. We got a great grill, but we left without paying! Oops, sorry! Xavier has been eating grilled food all weekend and loving it. Sunday we went to Millennium and Grant Park. It was sooo hot! We cooled off with some ice cream. Unfortunately, we forgot our camera...

On Monday we took a stroll through Hyde Park and the U of C campus with Mariusz (a friend visiting from Poland).

We made our way to the park so that Xavier could try the swings out again. Last weekend he tried them with Dylan, who is an old pro.


This time he finally figured out how to sit in the swing...sort of. He's still a little twisted.

Then we went to the Med and I let him try my milkshake. He doesn't know how to drink out of a straw so I wasn't worried. I guess a milkshake can be a pretty good incentive to figuring this out. I had to share all the way back to the car. Xavier yelled like his father did the first time he tried ice cream.

His uncle Gabi and aunt Tsubasa came over in the afternoon to hang out with us and Xavier decided to show off his newfound skill.

I couldn't get him to stand long enough to get a picture, but he had no problem standing for Tsubasa. I think he was flirting. Sorry, Bud, this girl is spoken for.
