It's Raining, Its Pouring!

Since all of our family and friends still live on the East Coast, we've been hearing a lot about the unbearable heat and it makes us "northerners" very grateful for Chicago's summer highs in the mid-80's! However, we have been dealing with our own weather situations here in the Midwest. We have had terrible storms and lots of flooding. On Sunday Mommy, Daddy and Jack thought we were going to get washed away when we got stuck in a torrential downpour while walking back from brunch with Uncle Matt and Aunt Meghan. One of the great things about living in the city is that we walk almost everywhere but it also means that if it rains, we're out of luck! Now folks, we're not talking about a little rain. We're talking about the skies opening up and wondering when Noah's Ark was going to come by and save us! Honestly though, it was so fun and reminded Mommy and Daddy how fun it is to be a kid. Jack thought it was the best as we pushed him in his stroller and the warm summer shower soaked us all. He squealed like a pig with delight and Mommy and Daddy just laughed. Cars were honking and staring but we didn't care! It was one of those things that we will probably remember for the rest of our lives. We captured a family picture in all our soaking glory!
