surprise!

I (Jane) flew out to Chicago this past weekend to surprise my dear friend, Lydia.  Her family was throwing her a baby shower, so when I found a great deal on a round-trip ticket, I jumped at the chance to be there.

Can't wait until they are a wee family of three - so fun!

 Another fun part of the weekend was to be in town to celebrate Lita's birthday - so, I surprised her as well.  Lots of fun snuggles with Eliza Wren were had by several of the Petersons' clan.

I was also able to spend some sweet time with Erik's brother, David, and his lovely bride-to-be, Carmen.  We'll see them next during their wedding festivities this June!

Eliza Wren loved being at Grandpa and Grandma's house - so much space to crawl around in, fun cabinet doors to play with, and a wee chair just her size.
