The best part about going to Chicago in the winter are the Macy's Windows! This, of course, was Emily's favorite part of our walk on Saturday! You couldn't tell from this picture...she was in the middle of whining because she wanted to eat...which, btw...uncle Rob detoured from where we were wanting to go, to a McDonalds that was a few blocks away!
Seen this advertised on the TV and had to go see it...Millenium Park. It was so amazing. Have pictures of the kids underneath it on the other camera...the one that I do not have with me at this moment! Down below, by where you see the buildings, was where the ice skaking rink was. We got to watch them go around and resurface it while we were there. The line to ice skate wrapped around the rink!
Emily patiently watching the ice skaters! This was her first time wearing the coat that my aunt got her for Christmas...Thank you Aunt Lynn!!!
Emily's favorite part of the entire weekend...the pool! She woke up in the morning, grabbed a little swimmer diaper, walked over to me and said, "Mommy, we go swimming in the pool now?!" It was too cute. Luckily she got to go swimming 3 times while we were there.
And one of the best things about living in southwestern Michigan...only a 2 hour train ride to get to Chicago! Didn't have to use gas, drive around in crazy Chicago traffic, or pay for parking...which btw was $47 a night! OUCH! We had so much fun this weekend. Got to have deep dish Chicago pizza, first train ride, first taxi ride, and just a weekend to relax and have fun with the kids! I am already wanting to go back!!!
