      Thanks – I love that skirt. I bought it a long time ago, but I hadn’t been able to fit into it for several years. I was so glad to be able to wear it again!

    I love the Shedd!! This photo is fantastic…did you see the new Fantasea show?

    I’ve got a forty before forty list….but now I want to see if I can steal some of your ideas.

    Over from A Charming View’s blogroll.

      That was the only thing we didn’t see. Maybe when E is a little older…

    love love LOVE your daughter’s red shoes!!! very dorothy-inspired! where on earth do you find such whimsical pieces for little ones?

    Just a curious question: which way are you counting for the 30 before 30? Does #28 item on the list mean you are almost finished? Or just started (with a long way to count down to zero)?

    We went there on our honeymoon to Chicago! Neat place!! Btw, you look way too cute in your outfit!

    i love how dressed up you get for the “normal” things in life. you are inspiring me to get out of my workout/pj’s/lounging clothes!

    I just took my 1 year old (14 months) to the Moat aquarium near Long Boat Key when we were on vacation last week- He LOVED it. I was in heaven because he was so into the fish and the turtles and the sharks. I can’t wait to take him to the Shedd- I lived in the city for six years and still haven’t been there! I can’t wait to take him– did Eleanor like it?

    You look so chic for the aquarium! I’m wondering what you would wear on a plane? I’m picturing something very Grace Kelly!

    Love your list… I am already 31 so mine may have to be 40 before Forty!

    I love your hair :) I was in shock the first time you showed a picture but WOW… such a great makeover!!!

    We were there on Sunday! So much fun! Had to bribe my kid out of that gift store at the end though, that place is kid heaven. Did you buy Eleanor any cute shirts?

    • Making it Lovely May 4, 2010 at 3:52 pm #

      No shirts, but Brandon did pick out a stuffed turtle for her. And an octopus.

    My son is only 6 months, so we’ll wait a bit to take him… Can’t wait!

  21. Ellen May 4, 2010 at 9:41 pm #

    Wow! You look like you’re well on your way to completing No. 6 too! Good for you! You look great!

    don’t you just love the Shedd’s Aquarium? Especially since they redid it! Add the food there is amazing now, double bonus!
