Lunch!

Stephie went to the Arboretum today for a play-date and packed a picnic lunch. Stephie LOVES Bozena's lunch box, so much so that she has already broken it once."Hey look, guys, I brought pierogi...""...and there are plenty to share!"Lunch is over! Good thing Stephie brought the wipes!

Oh baby, baby

Mommy and Grandma Julie bought Stephie a baby stroller at a garage sale for $1. So far, it's the best $1 we've ever spent! Stephie loves carting all of her "babies" which include her dolly and Bingo......as well as Stephie's favorite, the phone!Strolling is even more fun outside.

Stephie & Sean

Stephie has met the adorable Sean twice before, but we've never been able to capture the active twosome on film (Stephie is a never-stopping machine as of late!) Today we went to Sean's house for brunch. Here are the few action shots that Daddy managed to snap between runs of chasing Stephie down the hall.

Sleepy time

Mommy's lap is the best place for hanging out when you're really sleepy......and need a place to rest your dogs. In this case, the dog's name is Bingo.

Window washer

These pictures kind of creep Mommy out. Stephie likes to press her face against window panes.Gross!

Good for a drink, and for a shower

If drinking out of a water bottle is fun......then giving Mommy a shower with the bottle is even better......and best yet is drinking out of a bottle with a sparkly headband!
Look, Daddy likes wearing a headband too! Happy belated 4th!

Glendale Heights park

Stephie went on a mega-play date today at a park in nearby Glendale Heights. Whee! Roller slide!Sweet picture with Bobo:

Good thing Stephie packed a snack after burning off all of that energy!
