Avast, ye scurvy dogs!
*Ahem*, in case you didn't know, today's Talk Like a Pirate Day. And can you believe it, we still have to go to work.
We had a great weekend. On Saturday, we caught perhaps the tail of end of summer when we attended Oak Park's Oktoberfest in the middle of the day (not really for babies), quickly scrapped that idea, and soon thereafter attended Celtic Fest in Grant Park (much better choice).
Colin got to listen to bagpipers and fiddles. And he danced a few jigs with a little girl from Knoxville, Tennessee. So, it wasn't your average weekend.
Then on Sunday, we nipped over to Trader Joe's followed by the park for some swinging and strolling.
It made me start thinking...what are we going to do during the winter months? It's been so great getting him outside all the time, but soon the snow will be flying and we'll have to be inside much more often.
On other note, my bud from high school, Suzanne K, is due any day now with her first. We're crossing our fingers for them.

Just because it's getting colder doesn't mean you have to stay indoors. The park swings will still be there and besides it's kinda fun swinging trying to catch snowflakes in your mouth! Colin won't object to the weather if he dressed for the fun of a sleigh ride. See soon and be assured we'll have snow if you don't.
Love you all
