midwest vacationing

Hello fellow blog followers. Long time, no blog! I have had an eventful couple of weeks to tell you about.

We packed up and flew to the lake to spend time with Nonna, GP and Cosmo. Here I am helping Mommy get ready.

I went on my first boat ride. I cannot say that I would be disappointed if it was my last. The life jacket made me uncomfortable and the wind was too much!

Seriously, who thinks this is fun??
I really started to walk around the furniture and with the help of an adult. Here I am strutting my stuff with GP.

Daddy made an awesome tunnel for me to crawl through!

I wish my bed was in one of these fun cages like Cosmo.

I gave Daddy a few pointers on the classic Nintendo.

After a week at the lake, we all loaded up the car and the 6 of us headed to Chicago. We stopped half way to visit Bella, Gibby, Aunt Courtney and Uncle Matt. It was great fun!!

I got to play outside with Bella and Gibson. They are the best cousins! After I took a nap in Gibby's room, we had to get back on the road.

I had a blast in Chicago. Here is my ad for the "Got Milk" campaign. What do you think?

Almost every morning we went for a walk and Cosmo, my new best friend, got to come along.

I tried to call you to say I missed you, but I could not get a dial tone. Sorry.

Daddy and I enjoyed watching Cardinals baseball games together.

One day for lunch we went to Steak 'n Shake and they gave me this great hat!

Nonna had to go downtown to get a shot the day after her chemo, so we tagged along. Here we are on Michigan Avenue.

Downtown Chicago has the most beautiful flowers!

Spending some quality time with Cosmo. Did I mention that his cage is so much fun?!

With all these good looking men in one room, we just had to take a picture. It sure was great to see 2 of my favorite people in the world and my top dog. I will miss all 3 of you very much.
