Whew, what a great week! Lots of 90 degree temps, a beach town day with mom, Double Fun (see below) pool time AND SO MUCH MORE
As you may know, Mr. Nine and I took a Stella Mae to Chicago last weekend for an anniversary trip. She was such a good girl and made everybody smile so much! We had a grand time....
and then came back and spent the day in the pool on Monday with Mr. Nine, mesmerized, not by me, but by his new pool, toy, a robotic pool cleaner. I have to admit it is pretty cool.
A highlight of our trip with seen, my dear friend Shelly from The Queen In Between! She was one of the first Blogger friends I met many years ago and I have really missed traveling with her! I knew she was in CHi-town, but we did not intend to stay as long our last day as we did, so I did not think I would see her when lo and behold we are walking along the Riverwalk and saw each other at almost the exact same time! I got to meet her beautiful oldest daughter Jordan, as well! I think I see a Blogger trip in our future again!
An absolute highlight of the week was getting to see my twin grand daughters at an ultrasound! It was so fun to go along with the other grandma, my dear friend, Kim, and see those sweet girlies! They were really active! We enjoyed some shower shopping, Having lunch and getting some baby girl clothes.
Yes, real life is what it’s about these days. I’m not dressing up unless we’re going out of town like in Chicago which I blogged about HERE.
These are the typical clothes you’ll find me in nowadays.
BEACH TOWN DAY WITH MOM
My mama went with me to a beach town in Michigan to get some Brand photos for me and we ended up having the most delightful day. We shopped, had lunch, went for a walk and to a green house. Didn’t she look adorable!

Great memes! Relatable!
ReplyDeleteChicago must be really dog friendly and I love that! Ernie weighs almost 100 pounds so it may not be as friendly to him. He also is naked except for his bright orange collar.
I cannot believe you just saw each other like that! How funny and it was meant to be!
That is so cool that you ran into Shelly! How exciting that you got to see your future granddaughters! I love your casual summer style and am obsessed with your new sandals.

How fun that you ran into a friend in Chicago! And I completely understand about Mr. Nine being infatuated with the pool robot, my husband fall in love with every new robot vacuum we get and all their new features. Those baby girls are so loved already!!! So much excitement!
ReplyDeleteI still cannot believe you and Shelly ran into one another! My goodness God put you both in the same place so that would happen and I just love it! And those twin girlies - holy cow, how exciting. Your mom is just precious, a brand needs to sign her asap!
ReplyDeleteLove ya!

ReplyDeleteI don't know where to start with the amount of goodness in this post! Haha. Too funny that you ran into Shelly on the Riverwalk! I am so happy that you had fun here and that you got to see your future granddaughters! Your mom is the CUTEST and I hope that you have a glorious weekend my beautiful friend! XO, Caroline
ReplyDeleteI love that y'all took Stella Mae with y'all on your trip! That is just so fun!
ReplyDeleteSo awesome that you all ran into each other on your trip! Love that you and the other grandma got to see those precious babies at the ultrasound. The ultrasounds were my favorite part of pregnancy. Sooooo surreal hearing their little heartbeats and seeing them wiggle around. Hope you have a fabulous weekend!
ReplyDeleteHow nice to get away with Mr. Nine and Stella. It's so exciting about the babies. I like all of your outfits. Enjoy the weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe ultrasound appointment - how FUN! Everyone looks so over the moon in the pic! :)

Aww! What a cutie Stella Mae is in her little outfit. That pool cleaner does look like a cool gadget.

What are the odds you just bump into each other in a city as big as Chicago! Serendipitous! Sounds like a wonderful time!
