Trip To Shedd Aquarium

On our way to the Palatine train station.....

Connor's first train ride!

He of course was picking out every car and license plate we passed!

Enjoying the view with Daddy

Making a call

Getting ready to catch a cab

Good ol' Chicago

Connor enjoying his first cab ride

And here we are!

Connor gazing at the fish hugger

Cool little blue frogs

Checking out the fish

More fish

What a BIG fish!

Up close with Daddy

Another big one

So cool

More fish

Checking it out on his own

More coolness

Gigantic frog!

Sting rays and sharks!

More fish

In the gift shop

Back at the train station after having some pizza

Completely wiped out on the train ride home - success!

And back to Durty Nellies to pick up our car from the Palatine train station.
Durty Nellies. Smart :)

The Infatuation With License Plates

Loving Those Drums

Splash Park

We took Connor to Streamwood splash park to burn off some energy and have some fun in the water....

He made some friends and was being semi social

Daddy was having some fun too

Run daddy run!!

Connor giving daddy a bear hug as he drags him through the water

Here he is in his Diego trunks that practically come down to his ankles - so cute!

And here he is flirting with a female. A much older female.

And of course he had to make the rounds in checking the greenery. Thanks for all of your inspiration grandpa! :)

Can you feel his enthusiasm?

Overall a fun time!

This Kid Loves The Camera

Notice the chocolate on his chin from his cookies!

"Mama let me outta here!"

Could this possibly be Connor taking after his mama when she was a little girl? Squatting in the corner when pooping. haha

How cute is he? :)

Coloring!

I just introduced crayons & coloring to Connor a few weeks ago

He liked it right away

I got him a Yo Gabba Gabba coloring book and he loves the pictures in it

But of course the crayons at some point had to go in his mouth

"It's just wax Mama!"

Fun At Woodfield & Rainforest Cafe!

This was Connor's (and Daddy's) 1st time to Rainforest Cafe!

Connor was mesmorized by everything there

There's so much to see

And you can easily spend a lot of money there

Connor of course had to touch everything :)

He loved the fish tanks

He didn't know what to make of this thing

Checkin out the menu

He was interested in all of it!

The big gigantic FROG

He had to check out all the books too

And then the famous pointing with the middle finger began....

What a great place to pick up chicks!

Some more "middle finger" pointing

And some more...

The monkeys were his favorite :)

And now he's free to roam (beware everyone)

Checkin out tuxedos

Goin to get himself a tan

And he's always ready & willing to protect and serve the people! What a fun time we had!!
