Chicago

Our friends have 2 children with birthdays 2 weeks apart so to celebrate Andrew's 6th birthday and Morgan's 4th birthday they decided to go to Chicago. Andrew wanted to go to the Lego store and Morgan wanted to go to American Girl. We tagged along and had a really good time. Thanks Eytcheson's!!!

First stop, Shedd Aquarium
Vaughn next to his "big catch!"


Vaughn looking at all of the different fish in the HUGE aquarium.

Mya enjoying her first view at all of these fish! Their bathroom at home is all "under the sea" theme, thanks to the hardwork of Grandma!! :) When we got home from Chicago Mya all of a sudden understood the theme of their bathroom and spent lots of time talking and touching all of the fish on their walls.

I thought these blue frogs were cool.

Goofing around in the camping part of the aquarium.

Vaughn is jumping ship!

Done at the aquarium, now time to hit the cold streets of Chicago - TOO THE LEGO STORE! :)

I wasn't able to get Morgan in the American Girl Store. When Rachea and Morgan saw it they took off and I couldn't catch them to get Morgan's reaction upon entering, but I can say Morgan had a BLAST in there!

Mya is very angry she can't get into her favorite snack, Oatmeal Cream Pies.
