Sweet Home Chicago

We had the best time on our trip to "Uh-ca-go"! It was 9 days of non-stop running around, meeting with friends, visiting with family, and eating AWESOME food! Burgers, pizza, hotdogs- gotta love Chicago style, the only thing I missed was a delicious Italian beef! Next time!

The boys did great on the plane and had a ton of fun! (Most of the time!) Heath was a little fussy & gassy for part of the trip. And we learned a few new things about him. 1. That he loves to be held facing out- he wants to be a part of all the action! and 2. That he definitely DOES NOT like to be hot! We had to strip him down numerous times to make him a happy boy! Now that we are home he seems to be feeling better. He missed his swing & play gym, only now he is missing his Auntie, Uncle, and Grandpa!

Nolan was pretty flexible and did great with less nap time and more late nights. Although, we did spend one LONG morning at the Walgreens clinic finding out he had, yet again, another ear infection! But the drugs work wonders and he was pretty much back to his chipper self later that afternoon. Now home, he is still catching up on a bit of sleep, and has a runny nose, and is STILL getting those 2 year molars, but he is LOVING having his Grandma here for the week!

I made a video of all of our fun adventures! It was so nice being "home", but it is also so good to be back! We definitely missed Mark for the last 5 days of the trip! Being a single mom of 2 boys for those days was a lot of work!

Thank you to all of our family and friends who always welcome us "home" with open arms! We love you!
