Home Again

Posted in pictures, travel on November 21, 2007 | 10 Comments »

I’m sorry I haven’t posted photos of our trip yet – I just realized Thanksgiving is this week, and Liam’s birthday party here at home is next week. Also it turns out that if you overstimulate two kids for a week and then return them home, there’s a bit of a shock factor, and some [...]

Howdy, ya’ll! We’re having a fun time here. So much so that screen time is limited. I’ll post about the trip after we get home this weekend. Meanwhile, I’m off to get ready for the family party for Mr. Lemur, who is about to turn 4!

We arrived in Chicago safe and sound, although I think Liam set a new record as to how many “why????” questions one child could ask in the time it takes to drive from our house to the airport.

Posted in Chicago, travel, whininess on July 20, 2007 | 3 Comments »

We’re flying out tomorrow morning to Chicago. I was afraid we wouldn’t be able to go after getting sick last week, but I’m much better. After all, how ironic would it be to miss this because I was home sick in bed with mastitis?
