What a busy month we have had since last we chatted. Meredith's 8th month started off with a bang as she went and pulled the
Cubs out of a five game slump (A grand slam in her first inning of attendance, maybe we'll make the series in her lifetime). Grandma D and Papa help us cheer on our beloved
Cubbers. She really wanted to sample the cotton candy but we felt that she should actually have some teeth before she starts to try to ruin them. Next on the hit parade was a six day playtime extravaganza with 2 of Mer's favorite toys, Grammy and Poppy, topped off by a trip to the Zoobilee zoo (Brookfield).
There we got to show them our new friend Hudson the baby polar bear, and Meredith's favorites the dolphins (complete with show). We also had a surprise visit from about a million or so 17 year cicadas, which was kind of neat. Today we swung by the pool for a little fun in the sun, baby's first swim. She seems to love the water and thoroughly enjoyed her car
floaty. We think that we might become a more permanent fixture around the pool this hot summer. Tomorrow we are going to try an early morning dip. As for the rest of today, I'm thinking nap, lunch (I am marinating turkey breast fillets in hot pineapple barbecue and another set in soy sauce for the grill), and more napping this afternoon.....I don't know what Meredith is going to be doing? Have a great day!
