We hung out with Kim and the kiddos everyday! It was fun to see how much Courtney and Paxton have both grown! Courtney is quite the hilarious conversationalist, and Paxton is getting more and more independent. Despite his stranger-danger, I grew on him by the end of the weekend by getting to hold him, by his choice! =)
Paxton LOVED "Rocket puppy" and Courtney was constantly concerned about Rocket puppy's whereabouts, but was pretty scared of him if he came near her. He really wanted to play with her though! Eventually Courtney and Rocket puppy were on a playing basis, only outdoors!
One day we braved the heat and went to the Chicago Botanical Gardens. It was great to just walk around and enjoy the sights. I haven't been there in a while...it was beautiful! Here are a couple of pictures from that.
We also did a lot of visiting. Including many puppy play dates! Rocket met Norine's doggy Oreo, the Kiraly dogs Morgan and Wagner, the Hassen doxies Chloe and Pheobe, and met the Lerner doggies Sammy and Cooper. Phew. Needless to say, Rocket was exhausted after this exciting trip. I like this "sausage link" picture, and this ADORABLE picture of Courtney and Paxton.
I also made sure that I had my fill of the Dairy Bar and Caribou Coffee. Many delicious trips were made. Mmm.....
So much fun = So many pictures! To see more, check out the album I posted on facebook (click on that link).
We were sad to leave because we had a much needed fun weekend away from the city with excellent company. Plus, of course, we miss our family and friends! =)

Looks like you had a great time! Glad Paxton warmed up to you :-) Maybe you should move somewhere like Toledo so you could be closer to him and then he would always know who you are?! :-) J/K-but not really. I love the sausage link picture-very funny. I also think the pic of your niece and nephew on the trampoline is adorable :-) Miss you, friends!!!
