My first road trip...

So Mommy, Daddy, Grandma Williams, Grandpa Williams, and I all went to Chicago over the weekend. Mommy said that I did very well in the car for such a long trip, considering that we didn't make any rest stops on the way there, and we got stuck in traffic on top of it. On the way home was much, much easier though. We did end up having to make a single rest stop, but I really had to have my diaper changed!

While we were in Chicago, I got to do some really fun stuff. We went to Build-A-Bear and I made myself a frog. His name is Fritz. He was wearing swimming trunks, because I also went swimming for the very first time in the hotel pool. I really liked swimming.

The only problem was that the chlorine made my skin turn bright red. By the time we got done, I looked like a little baby lobster. At least that's what Mommy kept saying. They took lots of pictures from the pool.

We also went to Grandma's friend Jan's house for a party on Saturday. It was really hot, and Mommy and I both weren't feeling too well, so we ended up leaving a little early. Mommy had just had surgery the week before and it was catching up to her.

It caught up to her so bad that we ended up having to leave early on Sunday. I had heard talks about going to some place called the zoo. But I'm still waiting to find out what exactly a zoo is.

But, here's my pictures (because I know how disappointed you all would be without a few):

This isn't a picture from Chicago, but Mommy said that I'm getting too big for my britches when I can maneuver my leg over my swing like it is in this picture.

This isn't from Chicago, either, but Mommy wanted me to post it to show you all how cute I look when I chew on my fingers.

This is the last one that's not from Chicago. Mommy got it of my belly time.

Mommy getting me used to the pool...

I'm pretty much used to it here. You can see how red the pool makes my belly, though!

Another shot of me turning red from the chlorine. I didn't mind it much, though.
Swimming was fun!

We started to go in a little deeper...

And I started to get the hang of kicking...

Then Daddy decided to join on in the fun.
(He said not to mind his bald spot! ;-) hehe)

Then Mommy wanted to see how good I was at the back stroke.

And Daddy helped me float on my belly some more...

And then Saturday Mommy decided to get happy with the sunscreen
and turn me into a little Indian. ;-)
