I took off for the weekend and met Jeana in Chicago. We had so much fun. We got lost. We rode the trolley. We kept running into this German girl and her mom and we have her to thank for our best pictures. We saw Wicked, the Hancock Tower, the Planetarium, Navy Pier...nevermind there's too much. We also had some amazing Chicago Pizza from Gino's East, that ended up being worth the walk, and the wait...until the next night when we found out that there was one right by our hotel. I was sad the weekend had to end.

A few weeks ago Ivy bit a couple of different kids two days in a row. In an effort to stop the biting we put cayenne pepper on her tongue (she doesn't take after Great Grandpa Edwards, because she didn't like it). Well it worked...until yesterday. At the gym she bit a little girl. Well that little one didn't take it lying down. She bit back...hard. They apologized to me when I got to the gym. I felt bad for Ivy (but secretly I was thinking she got her come-up-ens..okay not so secretly), but I'm also hoping that this is the deterrant we need to keep her from biting anymore.

Keep in mind this picture was taken a good seven and a half hours after the incident.

I was reading other people's blogs one day and I realized that I'm not always the most fun mom. It was pouring outside so I couldn't go out and play with my kids so in an effort to be more fun I thought we would make cookies together. Then of course I had to take pictures and publish that I can sometimes be a fun mom.




Of course I didn't catch a picture of both kids on the floor crying about ten minutes later. But hey, I tried.
