We'll be visiting my bro and SIL in Chicago in the end of Aug for a week. We'll have a car (we're driving-yikes!) but also do public transit fine (or did the last time we were in Chicago when I was 12ish weeks pregnant with DS-a few things have changed about our family since then). We are planning to do:
-Lincoln park zoo
-Museum of science and industry
-Millennium Park (the fountains etc)
and some transportation museum near Chicago that DH really wants to go to. He and DS are train fanatics, sigh. Maybe I'll take DD to the American Doll store, lol. I'm sure that at 5 months old she'll be very impressed ;0
Any other ideas? They live on W Catalpa Ave if that means anything-they've moved since we were last there so I'm really not sure where they are. Not far from the lake from what I understand.
I'd also like stroller advice. I have an umbrella stroller for DS, a jeep liberty stroller and a snap n go. Should we plan on just taking the best umbrella stroller and the ergo and bjorn? I can still cary DS in the ergo.
TIA, you guys are the best!
