mom's birthday visit
Last weekend, mom came to visit for her birthday weekend. We stayed downtown one night (at the Intercontinental! Thanks, HotWire!) and went out on the town. An extraordinary discovery was that the Intercontinental has Eno, a wine/cheese/chocolate bar, in it. Seriously, say no more. Lets just say that we had cheese and wine, went out for dinner, and came back mere hours later for the champs and chocolate.
Despite the fact that I live here, it's ironic how little I find myself in downtown Chicago. It was really fun to spent time in the city with my mom, and wake up in a bed where no tiny gentlemen were tugging at me to wake up at an ungodly hour after said wine and chocolate.
Finn spent the rest of the weekend going to extreme measures to impress Nana, including reading entire books (at four and a half, ladies and gentlemen!), and doing his general comedy routine. As a special touch for the ladies, he does like to pick the spring flowers for them, like violets or dandelions.
