Our "Babymoon!"
Our trip to Chicago was AMAZING! We had so much fun being together, just the two of us. Yes we missed Anna and Peanut, but we needed this trip badly with how CRAZY our lives have been!
We spent 4 days and 3 nights in the city and I could have easily done a couple more. Rob had me practically running around the city but he did let me sleep in on our final day :) We saw it all! We saw Rob's friend Talbot, my cousin Colleen, Millenium Park and the Bean, some other parks, Navy Pier and the Ferris Wheel, did a bike ride down the lakeside, had a Whole Foods picnic, walked Michigan Avenue, did Shedd's Aquarium- first ones there (Rob thought we got in free if we were one of the first 80 people.... so of course we got there early!!! 7:30 thinking it opened at 8.... well it opened at 9... shocked we were the first one's there by a long shot??? Oh and we got $16 off our total..... save $16 or get another hour of sleep- you decide!!), ate Garrets popcorn and lots of other yummy food, went to bed early (shocking???) to no baby monitor and woke up when we were ready.... or should I say when Rob was ready!
Anna was super excited to see us- gave us HUGE open mouth smiles and kicked like crazy! We were also pumped to see her and loved seeing her snuggle with her Penguin stuffed animal that we picked up at the aquarium. We also had such a great trip because we didn't have to worry about Anna- she was with the grandparents and BOY did she have fun! I'd say she missed us though because our first day together she skipped a nap- and that is rare!!!
What a great trip and can I take another one this month?!?!?!?! :)
Much Love,
Jenny
