Mother's Day and Father's Day are quite different.
On Mother's Day, mother's spend as much time possible relaxing and trying not to lift a finger. On Father's Day, the 3 Chicago Maidys spent time being out and about - shopping, bookstore, going to visit Grandpa Park, going through the car wash (Jack's first), etc.
But I think Alex quite enjoyed himself because we were doing one of his favorite things - hanging out with Jack! As Jack gets older and bigger, it is easier to take him places and it's more fun! Jack loves riding in the shopping cart and deciding which things he should grab off the shelf and put directly into his mouth.
And that was just in the morning hours!
In the afternoon, we came back home, grilled up some lunch/dinner (Alex grilled as I am afraid of any kinds of open fire) and hung out with the Lims and my mother.
Yes, you may think it's funny that Alex grilled/cooked some of his own Father's Day meal, but just so everyone knows, I took care of all the preparation (marinade for the chicken, the rice salad, potatoes, dessert).
Afterwards, I fell asleep on the couch while Alex finished up some laundry! :-)
Father's Day was 'invented' to celebrate great dads everywhere, and Alex is definitely one of the greatest.
