We're in Chicago for a visit

5-27-01: Jessica continued to meet her relatives in Chicago. Sunday she was invited over to Aunt Ruth and Uncle Lynn Shuster's house for a brunch in her honor. She met Todd and Kendra and also meets Ann and Art Fox. She spent time with Nonny, Aunt Allie Behrstock, Aunt Nancy and Uncle Jerry Zisook, too. Sunday evening she met the Garfinkle cousins, Aunt Sandy and Uncle Charles Incorvia, and saw Susie Hwang again. Monday she met Great Aunt Lillian Paul, Great Aunt Sydelle Prebish, and then went to a BBQ at Uncle Mike and Aunt Lisa Monoson's house for Memorial Day. Jessica and Mommy took a nap and missed most of the party! On Tuesday, Jessica and Mommy left Nonny's house at 5:45 am with Pop Pop and Nana to drive to Arkansas. Jessica slept 5.5 hours in the first stretch of the trip - all the way to Southern Illinois! She ate when the grown ups ate and then was back in the car for another hour of sleeping. Jessica awoke for more food and then went back to sleep for most of the rest of the trip! Little Rock was fairly quiet for Mommy and Jessica, with a lunchtime visit to Nana's office and mostly hanging out at Nana and Pop Pop's house. Saturday night Nana and Pop Pop threw a little get together at their house to meet their friends which was very fun. New tricks this week included rolling over consistently on her own and amusing herself on her new gymini toy.
