Our trip to Chicago last weekend was a lot of fun. While Eric was primarily up there to attend a travel workshop, my sole purpose was to cram in as much time with my 15-month-old niece as possible. Mission accomplished!

she really enjoyed food time…

… and banging away on my computer.

ahhh, the glow of the iPhone — she’s starting very young!

the Simpsons all in the same city at the same time — first time since Thanksgiving 2008!
