Today has been a busy yet wonderful day.
We woke to celebrate Seren's 4th birthday :-) 4 wonderful, sleep deprived, quick growing years. Seren was lucky to be born in my home country Wales, Great Britain. And she has been a delight since day 1.
She was so happy to get 2 Lalaloopsy Dolls.
We had breakfast and headed out. We we going to visit Shedd Aquarium in Chicago.
What a beautiful ornament building. There were tons and tons of different types of fish. etc and most of all Sharks and dolphins. .. Although my cell died so I don't have any pictures of the dolphins
:-(
It was wonderful seeing all these beautiful creatures and the graceful movements they made in water.
Gosh, I Waugh I could swim like a fish!! I have adverse reactions to being splashed let alone swim with my eyes open under water lol.
We also went to Adler Planetarium which Carys slept through half of it. Seren liked son of the hands on stuff. I'll post pictures of that again as I had to use my camera.
We had dinner at 312chicago.
An Italian restaurant. ...so nice and the food was delicious, even the girls chicken tenders were proper chicken and coated in such delicious batter. I had an arugula salad with balsamic dressing followed by a Butternut squash Tortellini..so good and then naughty we had this lush, flour less chocolate cake - which Jason and I shared ( less calories for me right)
And it wasn't too expensive. And a shout out to our server... His name was Tony...complete with a full Chicago accent. He was fabulous.
We even left him a little thank you message on the receipt with a nice little tip. .. Yes, he was that good.

He even came up to us as we are leaving the restaurant and was so thankful.
Now, we are back at the hotel... Worn out and our new 4 yr old birthday girl, Seren is fast asleep... Carys on the other hand, is finding anything to do to cause mischief!
So till tomorrow and our day at the Field Museum. .. Night night.
