Big fun under the big top

Mac at the market

Blue eyes

Mac and I were on our own again this weekend as Dan was super busy with the reserves and studying for finals. Saturday Mac and I got up early and headed over to one of our favorite places - the Green City Market in Lincoln Park. We were able to buy a ton of amazing heirloom tomatoes, lots of stone fruit and some flowers for the house.

Later in the day, we headed out to Glen Ellyn to our friends Alison and Matt's house to celebrate their son Ethan's first birthday. The place was adorable! I wish I'd gotten some good pictures but Mac was being a bit of a squirmy wormy. The entire place was themed as the circus complete with a hot dog cart, popcorn cartons, red and white striped decorations, etc. So cute! Mac had fun playing with all the kids and I had a nice time finally catching up with my friends.

I'm still trying to figure out how to post videos on this blog - I swear, I consider myself a fairly intelligent person but this is next to impossible. Anyway, here's at least a picture of Mac with his new favorite toy, the crocodile walker. He loves to run up and down with this thing, which hopefully all of you will get to see on video soon!
