Family trip to Chicago (just pictures)

So we spent last week in Chicago as a family.
Lets just say it was quite interesting!!
We left Tuesday morning after Mommy getting her hair cut.  Got another four inches taken off after the three inches she took off on Saturday.  It took some getting used to but I LOVE it!!!



Here is a picture of Audrinna being a good girl "trying" to read a magazine!!!


So around noon on Tuesday we were Chicago bound.  We ended up getting to our hotel around 3.
We decided to just hang out at the hotel and swim.  It was perfect!!!

As soon as we got there Audrinna kept playing with phone.  We ended up unplugging it so she could play and stop calling the front desk!!


Mommy and Audrinna


We ended up going out for pizza at Giordanos, which was AMAZING!!!

I love this picture.  Looking back on it now I wish I would have known what kind of mood she was going to be in.

Daddy and Audrinna



This was one of Audrinna's favorite parts to the hotel.  She spent a lot of time in here. haha


Wednesday we went over to Shedd's Aquarium. 



This picture makes me giggle!!!


The jelly fish was one of her favorite parts!!


Thursday we went over to the Brookfield zoo.  That was lots of fun!!

Audrinna loved the dolphin show!!! Here she is feeding Daddy.

I took a close up picture of Audrinna.  Can you tell that she is tired??


Lets just say that by this day she was feed up with not being on her normal schedule!!

Here is a picture of the dolphin show!! It was SOOOO much better than Shedd's show!!


Daddy even got to touch the sting rays!! Audrinna and I tried but neither one of us liked the sliminess!!


Daddy also made a friend!!! He sat with us, taking Daddy's food all through lunch.


Poor baby was out when we had just hit the half way mark!!!


We even got our first ride on the carousel.  She cried "animals" for about 5 minutes afterwards cause she wanted to ride again.  I felt her pain!!! :(


Friday we went over to the Navy Pier.  After taking the long route, we finally made it there after two hours.  Lets just say we were in the car more than we were there.
We took another first and rode the Ferris wheel.  She was actually okay with it until she wanted to get down and walk around.


We spent Saturday just laying around our hotel room.


One of my favorites!!! I had almost one every night!!!


Sunday we drove home and did absolutely nothing!!!  Which is how I wanted to spend my Mother's Day!!!

I had a blast and can't wait for our next trip.  I'll upload some videos over the next couple days!!!
