Lost

I lost my glasses and need to get a new pair.  Since I haven't purchased glasses in several years, I first had to get an eye checkup.  According to the doctor, my right eye is a LOT worse than my left eye.  Hmm, perhaps I should get this?

Special delivery

Earlier this week I received a package of maternity clothes from Hubby's cousin.  They came at just the right time.  My pants were getting so tight that it hurt to button them up.  Hubby joked that baby was going to be born with a waistband imprinted onto its forehead. 

The results of my impromptu fashion show.  Charlie gave the outfits two paws up.

First Easter

Driving by the mall we saw plenty of signs announcing the arrival of the Easter Bunny.  Excited to have baby take part in this holiday tradition, hubby and I arranged an informal photo shoot at home.

Windy city

This weekend we visited Chicago with our Aunt.  Although New York is still my favorite city, I can see why people find Chicago to be so charming and beautiful.

What do my country bumpkin eyes spy?  A complimentary water bottle filling station!

We rudely walked through a conversation.  This big face was talking to...

his good friend.

This reflective object called out to us from a distance.  Oooh, shiny!

Here's the otherworldly view beneath the giant shiny bean.

Another view of water- Lake Michigan

Is it a pie?  Is it a quiche?  No, it's one of Chicago's most famous attractions:  stuffed pizza.  Note:  This was a "small."
