Chicago

Gabriel had a show in Chicago the beginning of August and wanted us to tag along with him. So he took 2 days off and we went up early to have a mini vacation and then he worked 2 1/2 days. We have decided that we want to go back to Chicago soon just not with small children and not when it is so hot. There is plenty to do but not a whole lot for our little girls at this age.
The days that Gabriel had off we hit up a very small LEGOLAND that wasn't really worth it but the girls had fun....
We did some stuff at Navy Pier and of course swam a lot!
Then when daddy had to go to work I took them to Shedd Aquarium which they enjoyed but still a little young to really enjoy it! Unless the fish/animal was really moving we weren't stopping! I think most of the time they were more interested in the Ipad things that told you about the fish!

 Our "half way" point for lunch wars this fun little diner where apparently the corn dog was invented!
 The first night there we went to LegoLand....it was not very big and unless your kids LOVE legos I would not take them to this one.

 The famous Chicago pizza
 Our view of downtown from our window at Embassy Suites (my favorite hotel!) Brigitte just loved sitting on the ledge and looking out the window.
