We are back from our long weekend in Chicago with my parents - we had a very good time and ate very well!! :) On Saturday we went to a matinee of Wicked, which was really fun (a lot different for us the second time around as Aaron and I know all the words to the songs because we have listened to the CD way too many times! :) ). We went to dinner afterwards at Gioco, an Italian restaurant near our hotel. We stayed at the Blackstone (thanks to Aaron's Marriott discount :) ) which is right on Michigan Ave. so there were some really great views. It's a historical building and we got to take a quick tour on Sunday evening - we even got to see the Presidential suite on the top floor, and "The Smoking Room" where some of the Republican big-wigs picked Warren G. Harding for their presidential candidate. It really was a neat thing to see, and fun to imagine all of the famous people who had been where we were standing! Anyway, Sunday morning we went to M. Henry, the top rated restaurant out of 4300 in Chicago on Trip Advisor! We went for brunch, and it was so good! It was so hard to choose what to order because so many things sounded so good! We went shopping after that - we stopped at Pottery Barn Kids and Babys R Us and another mall. We've decided on a crib from Babys R Us - I'll post a picture sometime. I really like it - it's very simple and has clean lines.
Some exciting baby-related news: Yesterday and today I have definitely been feeling the baby moving! It's so exciting to actually feel something, even though they are just little tiny bumps. I can't wait for some bumps that Aaron will be able to feel!
