Cinco de Mayo & Grandpa's Visit

Last week, Finley came down with another ear infection, which required us to keep her home from school on Tuesday, which happened to be Cinco de Mayo. As Mexican is one of Finley's favorite foods (we're not sure what are her least favorite, frankly), we went to Chipotle for lunch, as you'll see below. Her dish is the cheese quesadilla and a cup of the mild tomato salsa.

Before she dives in:
While she's eating -- notice the fork in her right hand; it is only for show.

We met up with our friend Mike Mercure that night down in the city. Finley wanted to pop her collar like all the cool kids do.

Grandpa Joel came into town Thursday -- his hair is not a side effect from any medicine, but rather an actual haircut. On Saturday we went to Noodles and Co., were Finley got the Mac and Cheese with grilled chicken, which her grandfather shamelessly picked out of her bowl.

On Saturday, Finley was preparing to cheer the Cubs on over the Brewers, as well as enjoy a break in the weather. No matter the temp., she LOVES to be outside. Alas, the weather got crummy again AND the Cubs blew the game. No, Mom, she still is not going to be a Cardinal's fan.
