Happy 31st Buzz

Happy birthday to the best husband and father a girl could ask for. We are so lucky to have you.

Schaumburg Parade

Monday, September 7th, I woke my lazy butt up early to go to the Septemberfest parade in Schaumburg. I had to be at my mom's at 9:30. Mind you, I was at Jeanie's until 11ish the night before. We used to go to this parade when we were little and they throw out FREE CANDY!

My mom and Ella Jen and Colton

The gang

My sister bought Ella these cute sunglasses. She looks like John Lennon.

The bully was pretty nice that day.

Ella loves to stand. Notice her shirt - my mom bought it for her. It's my new favorite.

Oh wait, there are no pictures of me...why? Because I'm fugly as all hell and deleted most of them!

The Cosley Zoo

On Saturday, Sept. 5th, a bunch of us met up with Kellie and Raegan at the Cosley Zoo in Wheaton. It was our only chance to see them so we made the long-ass haul down there (or up there, not really sure).

Three Men and a Baby

When chickens attack!

Who knew raccoons could be so cute? Sure they're cute when you're tossing them cheerios.

Do you see the teeth on this guy?

I've never seen a horse do that. It remind me of Otis and Greta at the dog park rolling in shit.

Ella is a swinger - not that kind, jerks.

On Friday, September 4th, Mandy I and met in downtown Dundee to hit the sidewalk sales. That didn't take very long so we headed to the park for a bit. Here is Ella's first reaction to the swing: She checks with her pal Addie and sees that she seems to like it.

Pretty soon, she is a professional.

Did I mention that Nick got off early that day and met us there? As much as I hate Nick when we play games, he is a really nice guy. Whatever!

Ella blew ass on the neighbor!

We have great neighbors. We do favors for each other and they are so nice to our dogs. Susan will come by every so often and hold the baby for a bit. Well, she sure regretted it last Friday night!

I don't know what's worse - the fact that my baby shit on her jeans or the fact that I grabbed the camera before I grabbed some clean-up materials.
Of course, Otis tried to assist with the clean-up. He's so helpful.

How much is that doggie in the window?
