[Uninvited] Guest Post!

Melissa and Jamie came to Chicago!!!

Now, of course, I'd like to believe that they came simply to see me, or lovely Meredith. Perhaps even our car-razy dog Caper. But, come on... we all know what the true objective here was:

Jack!!!

What a wonderful weekend! And I must say that for people with out a baby, they were incredibly accommodating of all the baby-related shenanigans that occurred on their watch. Seriously, I promise we don't only talk about his bodily functions and sleep schedule. And of course, being the generous types that they are, J&M also helped out with all the day to day activities, including helping to put Jack to sleep (as shown here), and keeping him entertained between bouts of tears!

But it was not simply fun and games. There was a city to see. For carrying around a 7-week-old, we got around...



We took a tour of downtown and Grant Park.














And even a trip to the Lincoln Park Zoo where Melissa finally indulged her fantasy of being a Carleton grad by surrounding herself amongst them.


Thank you guys so much for coming to visit. We loved having you, and would love to have you again. No, seriously, come back. Caper needs to go outside, and we've got our hands full here.

Much love,
Drew (a.k.a. Rudy! Rudy!)
