This past weekend I had to head out of town for a quick business trip. Of course I couldn’t leave my two men behind so on Sunday we all headed out of town.
Hudson’s first plane trip!
Hudson was wonderful during the flight and enjoyed hanging out in his latest contraption:
A peek into our destination:
Our first stop was Navy Pier:
Where we had a little lunch:
And enjoyed the view:
After that we run off to check out Sears Tower which is now know as Willis Tower. Check out Hudson and Jon in the cool acrylic boxes they have that stick off of the building! Scary!
After that we ran to Lincoln Zoo where we checked out the lions, apes and zebras:
After all of that we were exhausted so we headed to the hotel. We couldn’t leave Chicago without indulging in some Chicago style deep dish pizza so we picked some up on our way to the hotel.
On Monday I headed off to my day of meetings where I got to hang out with my friend, Jenny and a couple other designer friends that I’ve always admired, but had never met before. Jon and Hudson hung out in the hotel and around town. During my meetings I took a moment to check my phone and saw that I had received this text:
Looks like Jon had to deal with a diaper situation that lead to Hudson being a bit naked in our rental car and needing an outfit change. 🙂
Last night we all headed back home. So happy to back in my comfy bed.
Awesome pics!!! Omg, looking at them in that box and seeing everything underneath gives me anxiety!!! I would freak out! lol. Your son is adorable btw! =)

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]
Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]
For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]

Thanks Christy! The box was scary. I eventually stepped out on it as well, but it took some convincing. 🙂

OMG I’m sorry but I have the CUTEST nephew in the world!!! His parents aren’t so bad either! 🙂
