Aquarium and Zoo trip in Chicago!

Maddox loved watching the big fish, he would point and smile....it was great!

Standing over sting rays......

Madds, Ryan, and Gramzy!

Maddox pointing at the gorillas......we had the best time at the Brookfield Zoo. It is a great zoo, we will definitely return!

Mommy and her best little guy riding the carousel together!

We all had a terrific time in Chicago and loved visiting with the family as well as a good friend of mine, Heather who joined us for dinner Friday night! We are planning to return in March if we are a able...Maddox behaved exceptionally well and he made everything more fun!

Maddox and his Chicago Family!!!

Claire, Maddox, and Madeline! Sitting on the infamous couch that us girls have been sitting on for 30 years now. I love bringing Madds to my Aunt Sue's home, I have great memories there!

Madeline and Claire brought Maddox a maraca back from their Cabo trip, we told him not to hit anybody so he tapped his own head with it, crazy boy!

Claire and her pink Maraca!

I love this picture of the girls, I don;t know what they are doing, but it looks like they are giving each other a high five! They are so cute!!!!

My new Backpack!!

Maddox wore his new backpack around for quite a while! He looks so cute in it, even though it may be slightly too large for him at this age! His first LLBean....a moment in time!

Zoo Trip!

Madds with the gorillas.....he was really into them today!

This gorilla seemed interested in Maddox, maybe, but it was interesting for us!

Madds did not like the carousel at first but now he loves it!

Hudson Clark Meredith

Nash and his little brother......so sweet!

Little Hudson!

Uncle Ryan and Hudson!

The three boys.....lots of wild sleepovers in our futures with these cousins!!!

Isn't he just the cutest thing....look at all of his hair! We love you Hudson!
