Grace is 2!!!

Grace had a wonderful time at her second birthday party! She is still eating cake and asking me to sing her the Happy Birthday song everytime she lays down to sleep. We had a wonderful day with friends, family and food! I can not believe that my baby is already 2! I have found myself just staring at her the past few days and reveling in the fact that she is my daughter and I am so blessed. She is so happy, beautiful, funny, and sweet yet sassy! I thank God everyday that he chose her for us. She brings us more joy than could have ever been explained to us. Just today we were outside playing in the spring mess. Grace has little red rain boots and enjoys splashing in the "wati." As she was running through a puddle she stopped suddenly and said, "Mommy, where's the quack quack?" She figured where there's water, there's ducks! It was so funny. The innocence of a child is a beautiful thing. We love you Grace!






Florida 2009






We went to Florida for a week in the beginning of March and we had a wonderful time! The weather was perfect! Mema and Bumpa came down too and as a last minute surprise, so did Aunty Erica. We all had so much fun just relaxing by the pool and hanging out. Our only outing was to Cocoa Beach one day. We'll probably do the Disney thing next time...

Winter Fun...

Here are some random winter memories....
The first time Grace set the table.

Faith and Matt having some ice cream.

Grace loves her pink bunny coat from Aunty Stephy.

This was a very funny evening. I was upstairs folding laundry in the hallway and Grace was playing "nicely" in her room. All of the sudden I did the Mom thing, I realized it had been too quite for too long! I went running in and this is what I found. Grace had found her lotion and powder. She first applied the lotion and then to complete the paste effect, she shook powder everywhere. It was actually pretty funny and fortunately most of the "paste" was on her pants and hair. Guess I will not ever forget to put the powder up high again!

This is a video of Roxy pulling Grace in the sled.
I don't know who was more entertained, Grace or me and Rick!
