trishy in chicago!

this past weekend, trish came to town! not only could she work in her company's waukegan office, but she got to meet piper, see the air and water show, and stay with me! she got in on friday (the 13th) in time for a late dinner at leona's.

at the air & water show, we got some ice cream - yum!!

and then watched some super cool planes and awesome tricks in the sky.

aren't we cute?! it was super hot, but the shade made it a really nice day

and then we went to visit devs and patrick... and piper! piper meets auntie trish! i love how her hand is pinching at her shirt. too cute!

awwwwwwww

baby loves trish's boobs! she definitely napped well there!

we all went up to the roof to check out the blue angels - we could see them sort of from the loft, but we wanted a better view. only the stupid planes decided they were done once we got up there. we kept thinking that the el was the jets. so disappointing!

i love this little girl!

i've never fed a baby before! i even got to burp her. and instead of belching like a lady, she would just fall asleep on my shoulder. i'm told her adorable outfit is courtesy of les.

after visiting with the larkins', we headed to the movies! we were dying to see eat, pray, love and so we did. trish enjoyed a pretzel while i went with the popcorn/drink combo. that was essentially our dinner since the movie started at 7. don't worry moms, we did go home and eat our leftovers from leona's and a cupcake that we'd brought home from molly's earlier in the day. yum!

and then on sunday, we met dev and piper and walked to brunch at birchwood kitchen. the food was yummy, the company was fantastic, and they had a great outdoor patio that was shady and perfect to just linger at. and they didn't even mind! it was great.

isn't dev a hot momma?! check out that bob. i mean, what a stroller!

unfortunately i don't have the other pictures from that day - trish took them with her fantastic new camera - she got some great shots of us at brunch and then of the planes.

after the planes did their thing, it was time to head back to my place so trish could get her stuff and head out to pick up her rental car and then on to waukegan for her work week. come back any time please!! and now... who's next?!
