last minute trip to chicago

Because we are crazy and because Rachel and Josh Post had their baby and because we could, we jumped in the car and drove to Chicago for Thanksgiving.  It was totally worth the drive...a great week!  The boys sleep in Bob and Maureen's room when we're there and love it.  This morning, we woke to find them dressed in all Grandma's jewelry.   


Grandpa always seriously spoils us with treats.  Yummy donuts from local bakery.  Just noticed all those knives on the wall look a bit frightening with my 3 year old next to them!


Mesmerized by the penguins at Shed Aquarium.


Gettin wet in the starfish exhibit.


A very wet Henry and a glimpse of the Chicago skyline.


Turtle ride!


A cold, rainy day, but fun to get downtown.  We've decided we need to make a point of going at least once on our future trips.


Pretty mama Rachel with her sweet Charlie Robert.  He was born on the 14th.


Baby Charlie and Great Grandma Marion.


Just perfect.


Making bird feeders with Grandma and Grandpa.  This was a highlight of the trip.
