Chicago or Bust

We took a family trip to Chicago and had a great time. We hopped on the train and a short 4 1/2 hours later we got there. Blake actually really loved the train and it is so much easier than driving. We only had one minor emergency when we lost the bink a few hours into the first day of the trip. Lucky for us we found out Blake will take any bink (we have always used the kind he got from the hospital) so a quick trip to the Walgreens and we were on our way again. You can see from the pictures that Blake caught a nap whenever he could!!
Navy Pier Carousel. Blake was not really a fan, but it was still fun.

Lincoln Park Zoo
For those that have seen me pack this was really impressive for me to fit our stuff in two bags.

I love Chicago and have always wanted to ride the train there. Looks like a great weekend. And I guess I should say you look hot, but I feel kind of weird doing that. : ) Happy Seattle summer!
