Today we met up with our friends Karen and Chris downtown at the State Street Macy's, formerly Marshall Fields (that is a big distinction up here). This store is an incredible sight to see. There was even a small FAO Schwartz inside, so Alex had to check out all the larger than life stuffed animals and toy racecars. We walked over to Daley Plaza as well to see the large Christmas tree below.
We also discovered it is mean to give a 2 year old pretzel sticks as a snack while requiring the use of mittens to stay warm. We wound up feeding him the pretzels as they were pretty tricky to pick up.
Our stockings are hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that St. Nicholas soon will be there. Have a very Merry Christmas! Will post more when we return from Cincinnati.
Alex helped me make Christmas cookies Saturday night--or more accurately, helped me unmake Christmas cookies by removing the cherries behind my back.
