Chicago Weekend

The last weekend of January, we packed up the family and headed to Chicago for some
fun
in 
the 
sun!

Wait...it was 30 degrees and windy. Yea, the windy city. We arrived on Saturday morning and went straight to the Shedd Aquarium. We spent the day there and caught a dolphin show and a Diego/Dora show. Sam got a pretty cool shark toy that ended up in the pool when we got to the hotel, which Sam wore himself out swimming around, jumping in and socializing with other kids his age.

Sunday, we spent the morning at the Chicago Children's Museum (thank you Jill, great idea!). As you can see from the abundance of pictures below, there was no shortage of activities to keep Sam busy and having fun. Max even got to join in on the action in a few places set aside especially for the tiny tots. For $10 a person (teachers get in free!), this was the best value and the most fun to be had during the weekend.
