Chicago Trip...
This past weekend we made the trip to Chicago to babysit Wallace and Hamish while the PK took off to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary. It was a great trip for the parents to get some time off and the grandparents to spend some time with the most distant grandkids.
Hamish, Hammy, Hambone what ever you want to call him is a happy baby and laughs a lot. I mean all my grandchildren laugh a lot but this one doing it so young indicates that this may be a highly hilarious personality in development.
Wallace laughs a lot too and like most four year olds he laughs the most when he is doing exactly what he wants to do. A play session in Maggie Daley Park, bound by the city on one side and Lake Michigan on the other in downtown Chicago made a great place to be outside enjoying the cool northern temperatures and the bustle of people taking in the Christmas decorations of the city.
The brothers! It takes some special equipment in Chicago with Hambone bundled into a snowsuit that is incorporated into the straps of the big double stroller and Wallace wearing the mask that is required in all establishments and on any public transportation to reduce the spread of Covid.
Mask use is 100% in Chicago.
Katie and Peter did eventually return because they missed their kids. We got in a day of visiting or so and then it was back to Texas.
