Despite the cold weather, Nora enjoyed hatching from an egg at the Lincoln Park farm.
Her and Papa passed the rainy day playing with toys Bruce and I played with as children!
On Sunday afternoon, the rains stopped and Papa and Nora were just itching to enjoy Bruce and Meghan's rooftop deck.
Splashing in the rain is so fun!
Monday was hot and sunny so we spent the morning at the zoo, stopping at a great photo spot.
Nanny Barb sewed a dress for Nora, so we thought she should wear it for her party (which we postponed due to weather until Monday.)
Nora and her second cousin Eli stayed hydrated!
The kids stayed cool by playing in the cooler of ice. Who needs a swimming pool?
Nora blew out the candles on her cake, which was melting by the minute (no, it was not an ice cream cake.)
Yummy, cake.
On her actual birthday, we had a few neighbors over for cake and ice cream. Not a party per se, just a few people hanging out outside.
The cake had lots of candles, requiring dueling matches.
Nora had lots of help opening gifts.
On a non-birthday topic, Nora and Finn explored a tractor in a neighboring lot one evening.

We had such a fun time in Chicago, the men visited a brewery and took in a Cubs game. We also went to the zoo, Green Market, out for dinner, running on the lakeshore and had good quality family time. Bruce and Meghan were great hosts, and Nora loved watching the El go by 'choo choo!'
