Chicago

The weather this past weekend was stunningly beautiful (80 and sunny… I’ve never seen such blue skies/lake in Chicago)! For those of you looking for a weekend getaway for whatever reason, Hyatt Place in River North was in the absolute best location for a hotel! We walked nearly everywhere! Lunch at Rockit was delicious, Bub City is a great restaurant and country bar (yes, in the middle of the city). If you want to get dressed up and go dancing, I highly recommend Stout and American Junkie as solid spots. IO Urban Roofscape at The Godfrey Hotel is like no other rooftop bar I’ve ever seen – it’s absolutely beautiful with stunning views of the city! If you’re looking for a lunch spot/day drinks/beach situation, then head to Castaways at North Avenue Beach – we actually ran into the entire cast filming the new The Real World: Chicago. And, of course, if you’re fans of Giuliana and Bill, then no trip to Chicago is complete without making dinner reservations at RPM Italian! We had a great experience and the family-style serving style they offered for our group of 11 was awesome! So much great food! An amazing time! girl_about_columbus_blog

Ava’s 5th Birthday party was last weekend, right Ava’s 5th Birthday party was last weekend, right before we all got sick! 🦄 I’m sharing more photos, details, + sources on the blog today, plus, more of the party in stories today! ✨🤍 #unicornparty #5thbirthday #birthdaydecor
Thank you sweet friends for your messages after my Thank you sweet friends for your messages after my stories last night. 🤍 I think right now what is so worrisome is all of the neurological symptoms that are coming from this virus... loss of taste & smell, smelling smoke/disgusting smells, and dizziness. There are waves of good hours and waves of bad and every morning I wake up with new symptoms. Again, I have a few upcoming scheduled posts + I may give updates on symptoms but that’s about it on here. I can’t believe Covid finally hit our house... and we were so close to getting the vaccine. 😫

🤍 It's time to refresh our towels + bedding for the New Year! After heading to @meijerstores, I picked up fresh white towels, pretty patterned sheets + pillowcases, and a classic, crisp white quilt. 🥰 To keep everything tidy, I added in some woven baskets + wire bins. I layered in greenery 🌱 for natural elements as well as pretty + functional cleaners, a gorgeous candle, and a sign with personality! How do you keep your bath and bedroom linens organized? #Meijer #NewYear #Organization
Our January #bookshelfie 🤍 Clean, fresh, + simp Our January #bookshelfie 🤍 Clean, fresh, + simple. // I’ve been absent on social this week, actually really since the change of the New Year.  This was intentional & planned before what happened this week. Just because I’ve been silent on here doesn’t mean I haven’t been speaking out in real life. I chose to listen on here, quite a lost art that I’m personally working on improving this year. 🤍 I’ll leave you with this: The other day, Ava and I were reading Parker Looks Up, one of the books we’re reading this month. 📖 She looked at me and said, “I love her skin Mommy. Isn’t it pretty?” Yes, my dear it is. ❤️
