Week 1
Monday – Maeve and I took the el train and a bus to the Field Museum on a rainy day in Chicago. We spent our time there with Sarah, Olivia and Tessa!
Tuesday – Another rainy day took us to the Y, bowling (which Maeve loved!) and the Laura Doherty concert at the Old Town School of folk music. We have listened to “the concert CD” in the car nonstop since!
Wednesday – We spent the morning at the Green City market and had a picnic lunch with Georgia and Evan at the Lincoln Park Zoo. We saw animals, got ice cream and enjoyed the sunshine. Then, we went to the park with Avery for another fun playdate!
Thursday – Maeve and I spent the morning at the Dempster Aquatic Center, our favorite pool in Skokie, and then had lunch with Megan and Lucy in Lincoln Square.
Friday – We went downtown to visit Mommy’s old office and have lunch with Daddy on Chris and my 5th wedding anniversary. We went to visit Daddy’s office, and then went over to Will’s house for a playdate during a storm that took out our power! Will is a friend from Black Bear.
Saturday – The Altman family took the el downtown to Millennium Park to play in the fountains and have a picnic while listening to the Midwest Young Artists perform in the Pritzker Pavilion. A perfect Chicago day.
