Easter Egg Hunt

My sister Amanda has an Easter egg hunt at her house every year. This year Darcy got to come to the party. She was a bit to little to participate in the actual egg hunt but by next year she will be giving those other kids a run for their money. I did get a few cute shots of her at the party.

Here she is posing with the bunny. As you can tell she was gradually starting to lean on the bunny instead of sitting up .

Her uncle Travis came to the party.

Where ever Darcy is her cousin Dylan will be close by. He is so cute with her. I bet he will be pretty protective of her, she will need that.

I think she slept through most of the party.

Here is a good family pic from the party.

More Chicago Pics

Here are a few shots of our trip to Chicago.

Chicago Trip

While we were up in Illinois we made a day trip Chicago. It is about 3 hours away from my sister's house. We had such a good time seeing all the sights. It was pretty cold and windy. I was very proud of us for navigating our way around the big city. It was a blast!

Here is Darcy in the American Girl store posing with a doll. That store is insanely huge!

This is Darcy wearing her hat she got at the Hersheys store.

I took some time to do a little shopping, window shopping that is.

Lee thinks it is never too soon to start potty training.

We had lunch at this famous stuffed pizza place, it was amazing!

Darcy's first swim!

We took Darcy swimming for the first time in Illinois. It was an indoor pool of course. She really seemed to enjoy the water. She comes from a family that has had a long time love affair with water. There is not much else I would rather do then swim and go boating or jet skiing. I hope she will enjoy the water as much as I do. I plan on taking her swimming a lot this summer.

Illinios Cousins

When we finally arrived at my sister's house all the kids wanted to hold their new cousin. They were all really cute with her!

This is my nephew Austin with Darcy.

Here is Noah holding Darcy. His parents were a little nervous about this but he did great!

My niece Ellie just loved Darcy. She was pretending to change diapers all week.

Here is Hannah holding Darcy. Darcy looks fussy in this picture but she really loved seeing her cousins!

Here is a great shot of the five cousins!

Illinois Trip

We just returned home from our trip to Illinois, we were visiting my sister and her family. On the way up there we stopped in St Louis. My wonderful husband discovered they have an H&M in the St. Louis mall and I have been dying to go there. It is similar to Forever 21, trendy, funky clothes that are not that expensive. Darcy and I loved it! She was smiling and laughing as soon as we got in the store, it could have something to do with the fact she had been stuck in her car seat all day. I had fun shopping. I just found a couple of things but it will be cool to have some H&M pieces in my closet. Dallas should really get one! Props to my sweetheart for stopping in, it was all his idea, I am so lucky to have him.

I had to take this picture for my fellow Twilight followers. It is a town called Edwardsville. It is kind of stupid but I thought it was funny.

Okay this photo caused an argument between Lee and I. I was driving and was really nervous about driving in St. Louis and not knowing where I was going. He kept snapping pictures. Finally I screamed, "Stop taking pictures and help me!" To which he replied "Just one more" He ended up with this money shot of the St. Louis Arch.

Here is another shot of the arch.

Yet another shot of the arch. Can you see why I was getting frustrated?
