Overdue.

Josh, I and Nik made a quick day trip to Chicago to see my expecting sister-in-law and niece (my brother was in Michigan for the weekend). It was long overdue, and I wish we could've stayed longer. Really, I just wish we didn't live nearly 2 hours apart. My heart aches to leave them, it really does. I may not see them till Christmas, and it's really hard for me, but, I am just glad we were able to get up there today, even for a short visit, and I can't wait to see them again!
Nik just adored my niece Savannah (as she does her other cousins). How much fun all these girls will have when they all get together down the road...

"Do you mind if I suck on your face??? No, of course you don't. I didn't think so. How can you resist me, I'm your cousin, and I'm only 7 months old?" "No, really, let me just get a bite of your your face again. I promise I'll be gentle this time."

"No. Absolutley not. I will not be seen at Hooters. I have a reputation to protect."

"This is just horrible. I'm so nervous, give me something to eat...I hope nobody sees me here...How's my bow look. Is it straight, too much? Do I have to be able to look that good in those orange underwears when I get older?! Am I ruining my chances of ever fitting into those little shorts by eating this Gerber Wafer now??!! I really should start doing baby Pilates now to get a head start on my glutes.

Gotta love this face!!

Dessert, anyone?

Yea, I pretty much took care of that...Not feeling guilty about it either...Maybe just a little bit at the piggish way I finished it off.
