Science Fair

Payton wanted to try the Science Fair at his school this year so we came up with the experiment and got to work! We decided to see if a plant would grow with different types of liquids. He had so much fun watering his plants with OJ, Gatorade,water and Pepsi. LOL!  He was so proud of his work and had so much fun making his poster. At the fair, the judges came around and asked him a bunch of questions. He was so excited to share his work with them and he even got a certificate and a goody bag. What could be better?

Segway

Living Social had a deal on a Segway tour of the lakefront in downtown Chicago that we just couldn't pass up. We went with our neighbors and despite the rain and cold, had a great time. We ate at a friend's restaurant, Lito's Empanadas before.

Spring Soccer

Payton played spring soccer this year and is really getting the hang of this sport. He is enjoying it more and beginning to get more aggressive when playing.  He still likes to play goalie a lot!
