What a busy Saturday! First, we went to the park with Nils (age 4) and Elsa (age 14 mo), along with their mom, Sophia (who I used to work with at Bain). Nils showed us how to play hopscotch (kinda – it involved throwing wood chips on miniature squares) and go down the tube slide. Elsa used the big girl swing. And Sophia, with amazing energy, kept up with both of them – even turning into a giant T-rex at one time (after all, Nils spotted the T-rex footprints!) We are sad they are moving back to Sweden in a month, but are happy that they are happy!
Sweden... is that close by? Can we come to visit?
Then, we got a last-minute call from Katie (who also worked with us at Bain) and her two adorable daughters, Ali (age 3) and Emma (age 8 months). They were up in Evanston for their dad’s 5-year Kellogg reunion. After a bit of crazy play at our condo, which included Ali checking out nearly every one of Natalie’s toys (despite a backpack full of her own), Natalie grabbing Emma’s shirt and Emma grabbing Natalie’s hand, we walked them back up to Kellogg. Natalie loved Ali’s, er Little Miss Beyonce’s, nonstop singing. So much fun! Thanks for visiting!
Wow - a big and a little sister. What fun! Mom and Dad, can we get a big sister?
Can you come over and play again?
