Alex smiles big for the camera Visiting with the Chmuras at our hotel in Chicago Amanda and the boys read and play cars together Karen and Aunt Mary Ann have a good laugh Say cheese, Uncle Chooch, Susan and Joe! Alex adds colorful scales to a fish Zach and Alex LOVED chasing a light beam around a little room In the color and light exploration room, Karen builds a tower of shapes Joe and Zach make a big shadow The giant Lite Brite was a big hit with Zach (and the rest of us!) Joe had no idea Cole had his camera in video mode :-) Joe sets up an elaborate series of gears Alex tries out the giant Tinkertoy set Daddy shows Zach how to connect the Tinkertoy pieces The wind tunnel was a major part of the air exploration room Karen's hair goes flying (and yet the ribbon barely moved...) Alex is ready for take off Alex and Cole spin a whirligig with bursts of air Cole makes a huge bubble in the water exploration room Alex and Zach: Mommy, this bubble is bigger than we are! Karen and Zach play with cool bubble wands Cole: Arrr, a pirate must have his parrot! The boys loved storytime with Mr. Eric (and the cool hats!) Karen: I know - the chicken hat is so me, isn't it? Cole builds a cool structure with a little girl while Zach builds one of his own Zach: I love Chicago dogs at Portillo's! Alex prefers to just eat the dog, minus all that other stuff Having a little dinner before gametime (Vikings played the Bears in Chicago on MNF) Sean and his adorable little girl, Cadence
