The Big City

Today was a beautiful day.  Perfect blue skies, warm spring/summer air (which proved to be much chiller near the lake and with the wind), and a happy baby made for a great day.  Phineas got his first real taste of Chicago.  He saw Moody, where Daddy went to school; ate at our favorite restaurant, Penang; visited shops and sights along Michigan Ave. including the John Hancock Building and the American Girl Store; went to the beach on Lake Michigan; got fancy cupcakes; and even snagged free Chik-Fil-A sandwiches for dinner (Happy 2 Year Anniversary Downtown Chik-Fil-A!).  What a busy, fun day.  He LOVED the beach.  As we were walking across the sand towards the water he was extremely happy and kept squealing with delight.  I guess we'll have to go back again.  Enjoy some pictures from our day!

Feeling Sand For the First Time

When we were packing up to come home, a big butterfly flew into our car.  What a beautiful end to a beautiful day!
