in the city : heritage bicycle general store


This is our brand new favorite place for coffee in Chicago.  Nestled in a quiet neighborhood street up in the north side of the city, Heritage Bicycle General Store is a must visit, family-friendly hang out spot. Make sure you order a hazelnut latte with an almond croissant or glazed and infused donut to go with.

    We mainly have Starbucks around our area and I wish we had a little cafe like this nearby. I think the closest place to us to get great coffee where we can enjoy it is about half an hour away.

    Great pictures though!

    Heritage! We go there pretty often to refill our iced coffee growler (best invention ever) - wish we lived a little closer but we're in the West Loop, too far to make it an everyday stop. I have been seriously coveting their Daisy bike lately, though!

Week 27 Update

Hello fellow internet peoples.  Decided to give a HD video update for the beginning of my third trimester.  (WE SO EXCITED!)  It was a ton of fun to make, this time we were at home in Chicago.  Erick had a bunch of lighting equipment after all the interviews he did with the chicago school councils, so before he had to ship them back we took full advantage ;)  I'm learning more about codec and h.264 and prores 422 and although it makes absolutely no sense to me, maybe it will be useful knowledge in the future.  What do I know? It was obviously a very gesture laden, emotional, 10 minute interview.  I hope you all enjoy it.  It really is longer than I expected but instead of completely chopping it up, I decided to leave it how it is.  It's pure, natural, pregnant-y goodness of brain farts, odd humor, and searching for the right words.  If you make it to the end, remind me to give you a gold star or something.  I'll do it. ** A ...

bump : a thank you

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome on our littlest growing member of the De La Rosa family - we are so lucky and blessed, that is for sure!  Lots of time has been spent the past few weeks celebrating with friends and family, though a certain "weight" has been lifted now that it's truly out in the open.  (Ahhhh...)   Erick and I knew right away that this go-around, we were going to try everything we could to have the birth we wanted, so we've switched our prenatal care from a standard OBGYN practitioner to one of the only midwife groups in the state.  Although it is becoming more common, midwives and water births are still extremely difficult to come by.   In Illinois specifically, there are only two birthing centers in a 50 mile radius willing to offer this to us - and one of these didn't take our healthcare plan.  It's crazy how many long nights were spent researching on the web and phoning out to different practices, but I am so happ...
