Chicago. 2009. Oh what a trip! We had a BLAST. The Boy was totally off schedule, but did exceptionally well with it. We went to the Children’s Museum, ate, napped, ate, gathered in our room for social fun, Cruised the lake (while we ate), napped before an amazing dinner, hung out, and had an amazing [...]
I wrote a bit about why I have not been blogging here, so I won’t rehash it all. I am going to try to catch up and backdate the posts for the past month, so if you do not use a reader, you might have to do a bit of clicking. I’ll try to do [...]

Today I will address lifestyle two– the three of us abroad. I am not [...]

My cold appears to be correcting itself. I took yesterday afternoon off, [...]
