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.

More of our favorite recommendations, In The City.

  7. 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!

  8. 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!

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.

"A portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2013." SOFIA:  You are my goofy child, my prankster.  You are the spitting image of your Papa, though every now and again I find some piece of myself in you and it makes me pause.  You are my lover, and you are my fighter.  You greet me in the morning with sweet, breathy kisses that only the mouth of a little girl can give.  I hope you will look back on this blog and find strength when you're feeling kicked-down, confidence when you're doubting your abilities, and daily reminders of how much love we have for you, for our home, for our marriage, for this little life we've made.  I am thankful for every day I get to be your mum, and you are certainly becoming the most beautiful soul I could have hoped to raise. This photo was a stand-out favorite, but you can find more from our day  here . TAKING PART IN THE 52 PORTRAIT SERIES  |  STARTED BY: CHE AND FIDEL
