So to all my friends out there who are just now having babies - (and they are all having boys!) - Don't feel like you are the only one who is feeling the grocery bill blues! The ones with the girls are feeling it too!
B. The "why" monster has invaded Clara's brain. I think I hear that question around 6 million times a day.
C. We just came back from an amazing trip to Washington D.C. I don't know what I was expecting to find there, but I didn't think I was going to love the area as much as I did. I think the biggest breath of fresh air was the fact that we were not in segregated areas. (If you are not from Chicago you may not know this, but Chicago neighborhoods are so segregated it is sickening. I almost feel I am doing my children a disservice raising them here.)
However, while I was in D.C. it felt like I was back in the south, People would sit on their front porches and everyone said hello to you, or was just generally pleasant THAT does not happen in Chicago. If someone on the street says hello to me I never stop to chitchat. EVER. There is always ulterior motive. And it usually involves money.
Plus, we left Chicago in a cold and flooded state of emergency while Washington D.C. was warm, blooming and beautiful. Our cab driver who took us from the airport had to think the Mister and I had both lost our minds since we both were hanging our heads out the window like a couple of dogs for the entire ride.
It was fantastic!
That night we ate at this fantastic BBQ joint called the Kangaroo Boxing Club.
We highly recommend it!
But the reason of our trip was this...
(Congratulations K and D!)
We all had a wonderful time at your beautiful wedding!
At the "Green Turtle"
Seriously? Abe even joined in the festivities!
I hope everyone is having a fabulous week!
Happy Humpday!
