We spent wonderful time with family this past week and weekend. Nonna and Grandpa Walker stayed with us Wednesday night and left Thursday morning to fly to Colorado. Uncle Jonny arrived late Thursday night and left with Daddy on Friday morning to spend a weekend in Colorado for Andy's bachelor party. Then Hamma and Bapa came for a visit. We spent a wonderful weekend with them...we had dinner with Hamma at Marcello's (and I got ice cream for being a good girl), we went to the Shedd Aquarium, mommy went out with friends on Saturday night, and on Sunday we went to our favorite brunch spot and spent the afternoon splashing in my pool on our courtyard. I was sad to see Hamma and Bapa go back to Michigan. However, Mommy and I walked to the red line train stop right by our house and who did we see all together? Nonna and Grandpa Walker and Uncle Jonny...and DADDY! What fun it is to see my family and how wonderful it is to have Daddy back home! We missed him!
The Shedd Aquarium just completed renovations on their Oceanarium. The new Polar Play Area is fantastic! We have a family membership, so please come visit and we'll make a trip to the Aquarium. The highlight of the new exhibit is the penguin play area. They have penguin costumes for the children to wear and a real life looking penguin habitat complete with ice slides and temperature changes and nests and eggs and dead fish. Eloise had a blast!

When did Elle Belle learn to type?! You must be sooo proud to have such an advanced daughter! Creepy Uncle Jon didn't learn to type until he was 29!
