Chicago trip/Baby Shower!

We started our trip off with a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at Dave's parents!! We haven't been home for the holidays in years and even though this was a little early it was nice!!
Saturday we had our baby shower at At's a Nice pizza in Romeoville!! Thank you to everyone who came and for all the wonderful gifts!! We are so blessed with such amazing friends and family!! I can't wait to get the baby's room all set up so I can post pictures of everything! A special thank you to Mom, Tony, Christa and Maribeth for getting everything set up and organized for the shower! It meant a lot to us! We love you all very much!
Saturday night we went over and hung out with John, Jack, Kayla, Jason, Kim, Morgan and Spencer! Thanks to Johnny for cooking!! We had a great time!! Can't wait to do it again soon!!
Sunday we had people over at Mom's to hang out, watch football and eat some good food!! It was nice to just sit and semi relax all day!! I can't brag enough about Chicago food! I really wish we could get it delivered to California!!
Monday Uncle Gene stopped by to give me a cooking lesson before we headed to the airport! Mom and I were able to get another suitcase full of baby presents so we had 2 suitcases of little things, one bag with our clothes and things in it and we wrapped the pack & play and had that as our 4th check in! We got everything home fine. Mom only has a few of the other bigger presents to send to us so we didn't do too bad!! Of course we stopped at portillo's for lunch before we headed to the airport! It sucks how fast the time goes. Hopefully the next time we are home we can stay for a few weeks instead of just a few days!
Thanks again to all our family and friends!! We love you!! xoxo
