Thursday night we said goodbye to Grandma and Grandpa Nold, as they've now gone to Florida for the winter. We'll miss seeing them so much, but at least we'll get to visit when they come back to Chicago for the holidays. We hope they're having a great time in sunny Marco Island, and we'll try to not be too jealous in a couple months when it's snowy and freezing up here!
Jack was his usual chaming self during their visit Thursday night, and he showed Grandma and Grandpa how well he can sit up and play now. Louie was jealous of all the attention Jack was getting, so he crept over to lay beside him. Here's Jack petting him (actually he's probably pinching him).
We've had a sports-filled day today. Unfortunately one sporting event didn't go well--we just watched the Bears blow what would have been a great comeback against the Falcons. I know that makes all the Georgia relatives happy, but we're feeling a little irritated up here.
At least this morning we were in a better mood, when Jack got to watch his first Chicago marathon. The marathon course runs right through our neighborhood, so it's very convenient for us to see it. We're by mile 14, so we got to watch people at a little more than halfway through the race. Here's a picture of the elite men as they ran by:
And here's the women. The woman in the tan-colored outfit was the Olympic gold medalist this year, but she didn't win today.
Here's a couple shots of Jack with mom and dad
And finally, Jack seems to have been worn out just by watching the race!
