We dropped Heather off at a hotel on Friday night in downtown Chicago and then drove to our hotel a little further out for the night. It was nice to just spend some time with the kids overnight, but admittedly, a little/lot chaotic. The next morning we drove to the Clarke's (Mary and Peter have a house in Chicago) to spend the next couple of days with Peter, and his sons Liam, and Aidan and their family while our wives enjoyed a few days together.
We had a very fun time, hitting a mini zoo, a mini waterpark area, and some time at the park. We had the fantastic food and great ice cream and great hospitality from Peter and his family.
Peter and Mary got the kids pajamas from Shanghai.
I'll let Heather blog about her time, but for me I am just glad that she got time away (even for just a couple of days) since the baby will be here any time. We weren't 100% sure about going this close to the due date, but considering we ARE in the US, it isn't like taking a trip to Bosnia for the weekend or anything.
