Chicago

Let me begin this blog by saying I know 35 of the greatest women ever! I "met" most of them five years ago. We belong to a message group and met while we were trying to concieve. Lots of us have kids that are all the same age. Lots of us had trouble concieving. We have all become very close! This year was our 2nd annual get together. Last year we did Memphis, this year we did Chicago. It was great seeing everyone again. There were only 9 of this year but we had fun. One of the girls surprised us saying she couldn't make it, but flew in for the weekend. One of the girls even flew in from London for the weekend (with her 14 week old baby) just to see us! Oh and his name is Noah! He is the second most adorable Noah I have ever met. ;)
We didn't do much sightseeing but ate and drank and visited lots. Which of course was the point of our get together! We did walk down Michigan avenue and we ate Bennihanas. For those who know me that is quite an amazing task for me. I tried new food. And I do not care for zucchini! Or whatever it is that I tried that the chef called jumping worms. he said it was some sort of potato and I love them so I tried....ewwww is all I can say!

We also shopped at Ikea and The legoland store! I HAD to go and buy the boys special presents.
