This morning Alice and I were so excited when we woke up. We could see that the sky was clear. It looked to be a sunny day. We watched and listened to the birds singing their "morning greeting the sun" song, as I call it. However, by the time the boys (that would be Poppi and Anthony) got up and by the time we had our great breakfast the sun had gone hiding out somewhere. But we were undaunted and carried on with our plan. We took a walk to Grant Park to meet cousin, Nico.
It was a bit cold there and windy. Nico invited us to visit his friend Rilke who was smart enough to stay home where it was warm and cozy. Alice and Anthony had a fun time playing with Nico, Rilke and Emma. Anthony got quite a kick out of a little toy that used air to shoot balls up before they glided down a ramp. He just laughed and laughed. Alice took a bit longer to actually climb off my lap and check things out. I believe her favorite toy was a wooden rocking horse that she could ride with her feet touching the ground. The morning was full and Anthony almost fell asleep on the walk back home.
This afternoon after lunch Poppi and I left Dianna and did a bit more furniture shopping. We bought two stools for the island in the condo kitchen and a small side table for the living room. Then we used our coupon for McCormick's and Schmidt's and had dinner harborside. It was such a lovely day in every way.
