Chicago!

David, Hendrix, and I just returned home from a WONDERFULLY FANTASTIC trip to Chicago for a 2nd year meetup of the Jan09Mamas. We went, we saw, we did, we ATE. The day before we left, Hendrix helped me pack:


Hendrix did wonderful on the plane, and was less than enthused with the train ride.



I personally found the public transportation to be very convinient! Turns out he just needed a snack to return to my happy boy again.




We soon arrived to our hotel, where all 17 of the babies/mamas (and some husbands and siblings) stayed.


We decided since there wasn't a whole lot of day left, and we were pretty exhausted from traveling that we would just grab an early dinner and walk around a bit. David was excited to eat at one of the three places that Man V. Food had visited in Chicago..so off we went to Gino's East Pizza. I just realized that we ate TONS of pizza but took no pictures of it! Regardless, the pizza was amazing, AND they let you write on their walls to commemorate your visit. Here is David leaving our mark.



Whew, all that was JUST Thursday, more of the weekend later.
