A Week in Chicago

I was lucky enough to make one last trip to see my sister in Chicago before the baby arrives. We had a great week. Unfortunately, it was rainy and cold almost every day I was there, but that gave us the opportunity to check out some new fun things. One day we took Jake (my nephew) to Pump It Up. He absolutely loved it! We were only there for an hour and a half, but after about 45 minutes you could tell he was exhausted. But he kept on going. His favorite thing was to go in the big jumper and shoot hoops. Unfortunately the hoops were too high for him so he would jump, throw the ball, land on his bottom, and the ball would bounce off his head. He didn't seem to mind though.

Another day we went to the Shedd Aquarium. Julie has a membership so they go often. Jake knows that place like the back of his hand. He wanted to check out the dolphins and penguins about 5 times and he knew where to go to find them.

Our parents came on Thursday. They were in town for the Twins/Cubbies series. Jake adores Grandpa .....Grandma's not to bad either. It was fun to play with the family. The only one missing was my wonderful husband, Andy!

The week definitely went by quickly. It was fun to do some baby shopping and just hang out with Julie. We will only see each other one more time before we have our babies. It's crazy to think about!
