Random August Fun

Here are some assorted pictures from fun we've been having in Chicago. Even a Gophers dress!

The highlight of the end of the month was Katie starting a sort of mini-preschool program. She goes twice a week for an hour a half. The parents are required to stay in the waiting room the whole time, but we're not in the same room and the kids don't know we're there. Katie LOVES school! I was nervous dropping her off for her first day, but she just said "Bye mommy!" and trotted on in without looking back. Now she asks every morning if it's time for school. No surprise that the highlight of school is the juice box she gets during snack time.

On the way to a street fair.
Riding a pony!

Giving the pony a pat and saying thanks for the ride.

Here she is, the child her mother said she'd never dress in pink...complete with totally pink computer.
