Here are some of the additional pictures of an increasingly happy Darcy. Emporer Crazy Rooster still makes an appearance once in a while, but he is much happier.
Those are great photos of Darcy - the third one certainly shows the mischievous side you've mentioned! He is cute as can be and we can't wait to meet him on one of your visits to BC! Hugs, Tan
We've been following your journey and just HAD to comment today. Those photos of your little Darcy are so cute. Yeah for you, too, for the great sense of humor as your little man adjusts to his new life! "Emporer Crazy Rooster Pants" - that's perfect.
