Evelyn Meets Santa and Welcome Wyatt



Evelyn looks a bit more excited to meet Santa then he is her. I suppose it's because he's been doing this gig for 14 years!!! The cousins, Mimi, Grandpa Mac and the Karrs all went to the Union League Club for a fun day of food and Xmas mood.


Sometimes I can't wait for Evelyn to talk and interact, but then again our biggest piece of advice we've gotten as parents is not to rush our wishes for her to grow up...because one day we will wish she was small enough to snuggle her up in our arms again. So I'm soaking in every moment, every spit up, every toot, every coo and giggle. I love being her mom. Life is so much more enhanced, and so much more selfless now...too bad it took a kid to get to this point.
Thee most exciting news as of recent is that the long awaited Mr. Wyatt Duke McPartlin has arrived! He was born last week to my brother Ryan and his wife Danielle. By the picture you can tell he is already an L.A. fashionista. We cannot wait for him to come to Chicago in March for Chrissy's wedding where he will get to meet his 4 girl cousins.....I hope he is ready for all the doting attention he is going to be slobbered with! He will most likely end up in a dress by the end of his Midwest debut.
