Wednesday 4/26 Playdate with Nathan

Our friend across the street was nice enough to have Alexis over to play with her son Nathan so Tony and I could go out for one last date before the new baby arrives!

Alexis had so much fun on Nathan's Sit N Spin!

Cutie Pie Nathan!

They play very well together and had lots of fun!

Sunday 4/23 Cosley Zoo

We were fortunate enough to enjoy the beautiful afternoon on Sunday together at Cosley Zoo in Wheaton. When we asked Alexis if she wanted to see the animals, she said "monkeys" and "piggies", unfortunately this little zoo doesn't have either of those! We still had a good time and the weather was perfect!

Sunday 4/23

Alexis and Daddy being cute at lunch after Church on Sunday....

Daddy took Alexis grocery shopping on Wednesday, he said she was such a good girl that she deserved a treat! So now we have a fish! Alexis has named him "Alexis and Blues Clues"!

She helped Daddy set up his bowl by putting the rocks in....
Here, she dropped one on the floor! She said "Uh-oh, mess"!

Easter Basket

Alexis left some carrots out for the Easter Bunny before she went to bed on Saturday night, he left her a little thank you note....


Her Easter Basket filled with Dora treasures and Bathtub letters!

Easter Egg Hunt

Before Church on Easter Sunday we let Alexis look for the eggs that we colored and the Easter Bunny hid for her out on the deck! (Daddy hid them in the morning when he got home from work!)


She was so excited to find her first egg and put it in her basket!
Two....
Another one!

Easter Sunday Visiting with Nana and Pa

After having Brunch at my sister Barb's house we went to visit with Nana, Pa and Great Grandma Tillie! Alexis loved the Elmo book that was in her Easter basket from Nana and Pa... she also loved the blocks that Great Grandma Tillie made for her!

Good Friday

On Good Friday we took our annual trip to the Stations of the Cross in Carol Stream, and then to Red Lobster for Lunch with the family. I had to take a picture of Alexis looking at the Lobsters in the tank, she was so excited, I wish I could have gotten her face!
