My dad's last day at home before he drove to Phoenix to start his new job. He's going to miss baby guy. And we are going to miss my dad watching him all the time! They had some major bonding time. It was super cute...

One awesome benefit to living at my parents house is all the amazing food we get. Here is a shot of potstickers my dad made and froze for me to make for the girls whenever they ask. Which is a few times a week!

I would like to know how many pictures have been taken on these steps in front of popos house. I bet I could fill a book!

The girls were fascinated by this instrument. Popo played it for them...

Do they even look related?

I remember spending Christmasas in this small house. My current family barely fits. How did we fit all the aunts, uncles and cousins? I get a little nostalgic when I'm here. It reminds me of how fast time flies. I think about how my grandma spends all day, every day here. How she has lived in this country for almost 30 years. And her whole life is in this small little house. And as I leave it I wonder if it's the last time I'll be there. I'm not trying to be depressing!

So I let Ellie hold my Iphone while she was sitting in the stroller in Chicago. I didn't realize it at the time but she was taking photos. As I looked through them on my computer I realized that they were an interesting take on the city. Things from her perspective looked different - in a good way.
