Chicago got hit with super heavy rains over the weekend, including the largest single day of rainfall since records starting being kept in 1871 -- around 7 inches. We were fortunate enough to not have any significant water at home, but Alex's day care was not so lucky. They had flooding in almost all of the classrooms and had to close today. So, just a couple of hours after he was dropped off, I picked Alex up and we had a Mommy/Alex day. We went and played at a park and had a picnic lunch. Per usual, he did not take much of a nap, and we spent the afternoon playing and watching Toy Story.
Dave brought his Legos home from Iowa after our last visit and spent much of last night sorting them out. Normally Alex isn't in the basement during the week, so Dave left them out to finish, which gave Alex a big surprise this afternoon. He was really excited to play with the Moon Landing set. I just felt bad that Dave wasn't here to play with him.
