Easter Fun in Texas




Well, the pictures are pretty much the jist of it. Gracie didn't really get to into everything the Easter bunny brought her until we got home. But it was a fun Easter with her cousins. We had a lot of fun in Texas. A nightmarish plane ride both to and from, but a good trip other than that. Gracie really seemed to enjoy being around her cousins. I think they enjoyed have her around too! ( By the way: Emily got a tattoo kit for Easter and that is what the girls are doing drawing on Gracie. We ALL recieved tattoos from the girls that day!)

Brief update... (sorry!)

Okay, I've been terrible about the blogging. We're just so busy. Gracie especially! She's talking up a storm.... it seems like everyday she picks up a couple more words. She signs still though when she says a lot of things or will sign instead of saying stuff. She is a total ham. She stands n front of the mirror posing and making faces. She cracks herself up ( well, let's face it... me too!) She's very cool in her shades. She likes to wear them EVERYWHERE. She wears them for long periods too.... and she just looks like she knows that she is sooo cool.

She is also obsessed with brushing her teeth. I have never seen a kid love to brush their teeth as much as she does. She asks to do it a least three or four times a day. She very into hygiene apparently!
She's super independent. And no longer allows me to feed her. So after a few tries with the yogurt... we gave it up. She drinks kefir now instead! She knows a large majority of her body parts. And is super pleased with herself when she accurately points at them. It's pretty cute.
And she is super into trying to help me. Here she is "mopping" the floor. She may make the apartment look like it was hit by a tornado most days... but she does like to make it look like she at least TRIES to clean up : ) We're going to Texas tomorrow, so hopefully we'll have lots of cute pictures to post when we get back!
