Our Time in Chicago


So i thought i would post some pictures. I am going to post pictures from Chicago tonight. Then later this week i will post pictures from Hailey's birthday parties (yes she had more than one). So, here are the Chicago pictures. We were only there for a two days, but one day where we didn't have travel. So the only pictures i have are from the park that is right by where Tiff and Brandon live. We had a ton of fun as you will see. Keep in mind the pictures are backward the order i wanted them, and i am too tired to go back through and put a new order. So here they are. Also, the adorable puple outfi she is wearing was made by a girl in my PT class (Kristen) mom. So knitted the jacket and a cute design on the shirt.


Hailey and I playing in the field on the way back from the park.

I was trying to show her how to blow, this is when she finally got it and was able to blow.


After sweet success of blowing the flower.

THis was me trying to teach Hailey how to blow.




Hailey and I in the car, she was driving me.





Hailey driving the car by herself

Hailey hanging on the bar before going down the slide. She is attempting to do the tuck, like she does at gymnastics class.

Hailey going down he HUGE slide with Hailey, as you can tell she LOVED it. She went down it by herself later.
So this is a picture of a not so bright idea i had. I thought the zipline looked like fun. SO i thought it would be a good idea for me to go with Hailey on it and i would just hold on for dear life with one hand. Well, as soon as i started to lift my feet up i realized there is no way i would hold up my weight and Hailey's with one arm, hence my face. =)


Tiffany and Hailey on the teeter totter, i am on the other end.



Hailey and i on the tetter totter.



On the tetter totter again.





Hailey and I running to the park, like i said these are all in backwards order.


Here we come, she was so excied.


Look how cute she is running, notice her arms in the correct posistion. She is getting so big, =(


Here we are when we first started toward the park and saw it. We are running in unison. =)



SO these next few pictures need some explaining. and yes they are backwards. SO Hailey spent a TON of time in the car, seeing how we drove to Chicago from stillwater. THis was before the park, but we were going somewhere. Since this is the last photo, just notice that she is sleeping.


Prior to falling asleep, she is chewing fruit loops that are in the cup, i couldn't get her actually putting it into her mouth, but this is right after, becuase she is literally chewing and sleeping a the same time.



Her she is getting ready to put it in her mouth.


SO as you can tell, she was exhusted and hungry from our trip. We actually did more than just the park in Chicago. We carried stuff up from the truck we rode in to unload into Tiff and Brandon's apartment, althought, they just had to move it to a different apartment in teh same complex, becuase that apartment wasn't ready when i was there. Hailey even helped with carrying stuff up the stairs, it was so cute. We went shopping in downtown Naperville which was fun too. I bought some cool cooking items. WE went to the mall too. So we had a lot of fun in Chicago. Brandon was such a good hoster ( i guess instead of hostess). He put up with getting a TON of finger prints all over her apartment. I bet he is still finding some suprises Hailey left him. So something to leave you with. Brandon and Hailey... Brandon is stretching out his back and Hailey watching him and trying to get his attention. Hopefully no one is confused (this is Uncle Brandon #2), Kim's brandon is called Uncle Buckey. So, aren't they cute!






SOrry this was so long, but i hope you all enjoy the pictures. Hopefully, birthday picures will be posted tomorrow.
