since we showed chicago off to ellery, we thought it was time to show her just how great her hometown of milwaukee is! so the three of us had a little date day. the lakefront is beautiful, there is always something fun - like a festival or event - going on, and unlike chicago, going downtown is so easy and finding parking is a breeze! so, off we went for a little stroll along the gorgeous lake michigan.
i love soaking up days when the three of us can be together! we had such a wonderful time just walking along the lake (though it was a little chilly!). we stopped for lunch at a pretty random restaurant (if you could call it that! it was more of a glorified concessions stand) right on the water, and even grabbed some ice cream at the kite store. and we ended the day with a little family photo shoot. perfect.
it was one of those days when you do ordinary life stuff - like walk and talk with your husband, take in just how beautiful God's creation is, or gaze into the big eyes of your daughter - and realize just how precious and full of joy that life can be. even in the simple moments. i love it.
nursing on-the-go: it actually worked :)
ellery's first food: ice cream! (just kidding...)
"please, dad??"

"enough with the pictures, mom & dad!
i'm just going to hide under my hat!"
