oh what a weekend

my, were we busy this weekend, and we've got the photos to prove it.

uncle bobbo came to visit in the middle of last week, and we did lots of things with him. 
we went to the zoo, played at the park, ran around the square, and read books at bedtime. 
uncle bobbo is so fun!
(bean loves uncle bobbo, too.)

on saturday morning, we went to the montrose harbor children's kite festival.

later that afternoon, will and i headed to lake forest to spend the night at nana and papa's house (it's been confirmed that my dad is "papa," but "nana" is still a little up for grabs).  it was a warm day so we got out the pool, and will went so far as to dip his tummy in it for a moment.  mainly he enjoyed moving his cups from the pool to the doorstep and back to the pool again.  

makes sense to me. 

we ate dinner at will's new favorite restaurant - the lantern.  he munched on chicken fingers and watched in awe as a choo choo train puffed around the perimeter of the ceiling.  

i foresee many years of exciting dinners with nana and papa at the lantern.  

on our way out the door, will yelled, "bye bye, choo choo!" 

and it was one of the cutest things i ever heard.

on sunday morning, after a sleepless sleepover in lake forest (shocking, i know), 

we walked to raise money for lupus awareness and research.  

also, will got a cool t-shirt.

the excitement of this past weekend will be easily matched by our trip to 

boston on thursday for auntie katie's law school graduation.   

will and i get to party in a hotel room for three straight nights just the two of us.  

can you tell i'm a little scared?  

just a little.

well, maybe a lot.
