Ok, so I know Marion is near me and I just saw that someone else is too. We've got to get together!!! I havent been active on the Illinois board since we moved boards because it was so slow. But now that we've got some close people, we have to! I live right by Rush Copley in Hometown Aurora (on Montgomery Rd). I'll try to check this site more, but email me! I have passes to Brookfield Zoo, DuPage Childrens Museum, Shedd Aquarium (but still havent been!!!) and Im close to Phillips Park and Waterpark... Hmmm I dunno. Anyways, email me!!

I am in Schaumburg but I'd love to go to the zoo! I have a membership also.

How about the 18th? That will give the other people time to see this and respond!

looks clear on my calander. I have the Plus membership, so if more are coming and we meet outside the gate, someone can get in free.

:cry I work full-time!! I'm SO close to Valerie, it's bizarre... and we've still not met up yet!

We were at the Children's Museum yesterday. It's nice when it's a hot day out, as everyone else is at the crowded places!

We went to Splash Country 8 days ago (Sunday), woah it was a mob scene! I can't imagine how they could have squeezed any more people in there, but Lauren digs the special area for kids under 4' to play in.

Valerie

Hey Val!

Ugh, Renee don't joke about it... I was at the ER at Copley on Monday night/Tuesday morning with a 105 fever that came from nowhere.

I'll e-mail Val & Sheryl from my work e-mail, OK? I check that far more often!

Marion: I'm so sorry you were sick! I hope you are on the mend now!

Looks like Wednesday won't be good after all. It is supposed to be rainy all day which makes the zoo no fun. Maybe we can try for another date?

Hmmm, so Wednesday is out? How about ANYTIME next week? I am free every day except Friday to go anywhere. And on Fridays, everyone can come to my house if they want to. I watch a 2nd little girl on Fridays 3:30-6:30pm, and I only have a double stroller, not a triple, LOL, so we dont go ANYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!! Let me know!

Valerie

I leave EARLY Wednesday morning for vacation, So how about Monday?

oops! I totally flaked on the zoo trip. I had a very tiring weekend and never got on here to set up meeting time or place. On my end, it's a good thing because I am looking forward to napping with ds.
I just realized Tuesday I was having pregnancy symptoms and sure enough, I got a positive test. Seems like as soon as the line shows up, morning sickness and sleepiness increase tremendously.
Perhaps we can try again in a couple weeks as I won't be around much untile after Labor day.
Sorry I am flaking out on you!

CONGRATS Renee! That is wonderful news. It is ok to be flaky since you have pregnant brain again.

Wasn't it a beautiful weekend??
