Today is Monday which means tommorow is Tuesday (I know I am stating the obvious). Tuesday means going to the gym at 5:30am, work, and taking the residents on their shopping trip, or yes, it also means taking the resident to the senior center to go dancing at night... I really just want to sleep!!!

On another note, Friday we drove up to Wisconsin to the Jelly Belly Factory. I have to borrow a second wheeling carry on to hold all the Jelly Belly I got for people and Jelly Bellys my mother got for people. DON'T TELL NAOMI I HAVE THEM!!!! THEY AREN'T APART OF THE DIET PLAN!!!!

Saturday we went downtown Chicago, went to the American Girl store (Ashlee loved it, so did Grandma and Granpa... oh and I did) and Ashlee got her first American Girl doll, a bitty baby. Mom and Dad bought me one too. Someday my collection will be complete. We then went to the cheesecake factory for lunch and then the robbery happened on Louis Vuitton and then we split up for the day. Mom and everybody else went to the zoo, dad and I went to the Art Institute. I hold such a reverance for the works of Art that are there. I was speechless almost the whole time. Not to mention my favorite painting in the whole world is there:




We then high tailed it across town to meet up with everybody else. The bus we needed was slow so we walked. We also stopped at Garrett's Popcorn on the way back (best caramel popcorn ever!) and a CVS Pharmacy because they had CHicago Shirts for $3.33. I also got Chicago Hats for $3.33. Can't beat those prices! Especially because at the gift shops they were $15-$30. Then we finally made it to everybody else, got Cheesecake to go, headed out of downtown and went to one of the biggest IKEAS i think I have ever seen. It was three floors and massive. Then we went home and went to sleep!!!

Well, Ashlee has come into my parents office and wants to play.. More to come later!!!
