Cousins

Cousins Amy and Ava came for a visit yesterday. The girls hit it off right away!

We took a walk to the park and the girls jabbered to each other on the way home!

Hugs all around!

Miss Ava is almost 2!! Where does the time go?

(Grace will never be that old, right?)

In other news....

Grace got her second tooth yesterday! Two little ones on the bottom now.

And I officially resigned my teaching position today.

I had only taken a year, and I knew this was the plan all along,

but it still feels weird. A good weird, though! :)

Bed Time

Almost every night we take a bath now.

Grace loves to splash have water poured over her head!

I can't wait to get her in the pool this summer.

We brush our tooth before bed too.

And then off to bed for the night!

Down at 7:30 and I'll see you at 7:00!

New tricks!!!!

Easter with the Clark girls.

(I'm waiting for nice weather to pose her in her dress with her Easter basket OUTSIDE!)

Seven Months

Grace and Weeb at 7 months.

Grace is very good at sitting up now.

We really liked the 70 degree weather a couple of weeks ago!

Bring on summer!!!

And we are starting to get up on our knees!

Daddy is really good at helping to practice this skill!

Hanging out with Zoe and August!

We're doing pretty well with the spoon feeding so it's time to move on to doing it herself!

Joseph is a good helper around the house and with Grace.

David was busy writing his chapter book!

Who says girls can't wear blue?

Praise the Lord!!! Happy Easter!

Grace showing some love

Tim is learning how to post video, and this is the only one we
have downloaded from the camera. Aunt Monica got her
this monkey for Christmas and (as you can tell) she loved it!

Funny Faces

High Speed ROCKS!! It used to take me 3 minutes PER PICTURE to download to the blog, now each one takes less than 20 seconds!!! We have yet to get our camera phone working, so we can see and talk to Margaret, but hopefully that will work soon! It is getting more difficult to catch Grace smiling on camera, but that doesn't mean she doesn't make the best faces!!!

Our first tooth came in yesterday! That explains some things...

Oh those faces!

Attitude already?

We recently had the corner of our house raised and secured by helical piers. So now "we" can finish painting and get a new kitchen floor!

For those of you who recieved a St. Patrick's day card and the ACID FREE , SCRAPBOOKING GLUE DOTS (?!?!?) seeped through the picture, here it is again. If you would like a new one you can save and print this one or email me and I'll send you another one!

Six Months

I know! I know! The Bow!!

But how cute!!??

We've started eating cereal and avacados - Such a big girl!

She loves both of them and is starting to eat more than she wears!

She also is getting good at holding her bottle herself and likes to suck on her toes for a snack!

Family portrait for church. Smile!

Uncle Ben wanted his picture with Grace in their Colt's hats on the blog, too!

Aren't they cute!?!
