Tooth fairies

Gabi lost most of her teeth.

Patrick's pics!

Patrick is hilarious, he has such funny ideas and laughs all the time! Sometimes he laughs so much that he can't walk. I love this boy!!! 

 Patrick loves this book. It is about boys with long hair believing that because of their long hair they have special powers! When we went to Florida, he saw and African American boy with huge afro hair do. You should see Patrick's eyes opening so wide. He came to me, pointed to this boy and whispered in my ears : "Mom, I think he has super powers"! I just smiled.

Our 1st Bat Mitzvah

We were invited to our 1st Bat Mitzvah - Lauren turned 13th and in Jewish tradition it is a huge celebration. The party was amazing! There were so many treats and goodies, DJ, sweet table, photo booth and more. We had an amazing time!

Morning hugs

It is early in the morning, Gabi and Patrick are in our bed and I am getting ready to work in the bathroom. Then, I hear someone calling "hugs, hugs". I go to the bedroom, see Patrick moving so I lay down and hug him. Then he says - "it was Gabi, you are hugging a wrong person"! I started to laugh:)

Soccer game downtown and Navy Pier

One of the Patrick's games was downtown. So we decided to go for a breakfast in the city after the game. Our favorite skateboarding park was just outside the restaurant so of course we couldn't stop them. After they got tired of that we went to the Navy Pier and for the speedy boat ride. It was a wonderful family day!

 This is the last picture of the Ferry Wheel - they started to take it down the next day

Patrick's hair due

Patrick all of the sudden likes to comb his hair. HANDSOME!

My dates with Patrick

I love to spend a time alone with Patrick. He is so funny. We enjoy eating together.

Soccer

 Patrick started a soccer training. He goes to TESC (Team Elmhurst Soccer Club) and has practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays. He has games every other Sunday. He loves it! They really focus on skills and not really scoring goals. Below are the pictures from his 1st soccer game.
