Happy Easter!

Grace loved her dress and didn't want to change when we got home from church. How in the world did I end up with such a girly girl?! She always begs for her hair to be put in "pretty pigtails". She always wants her shoes - and not just any pair - she always has a specific pair in mind. I always have to roll my eyes at that one. After church I overheard this conversation:

Grace: Daddy, want shoes.

Steve: You want your pumas?

Grace: No, black ones.

What a prissy girl. :) 

This afternoon I put her down for her nap. As soon as I laid her down in her bed she rolled onto her side and closed her eyes. I thought, wow, she must be overly tired. Then I heard fake snoring and saw one eye open and look at me. Of course this was followed by a lot of giggling. I left the room laughing and thinking that Steve probably had something to do with this "joke". :)

Weekend at the Kio's

Steve, Grace, and I are on spring break! We decided to kick off the week by going down to Jill and Eben's. I think the highlight of the trip was when Grace was eating a cracker, coughed so the cracker flew out of her mouth onto the floor, and then Benjamin picked it up and ate it. :) What can we say - he was too fast for any of us to stop him!

They entertained each other during bath time...

decided it was great fun to "hold hands" (doesn't Steve look thrilled to be in the back:) )...

and kept each other company in the mall.

Grace loved to see "Benjen", Aunt Jill, and Uncle Eben. Benjamin has become a pro at saying "Grace", although he refused to say "Aunt Sarah" (much to my dismay). :) I was excited to get to feel the prenatal bambino kick quite a bit (apparently he or she liked the movie Jill and I were watching)! What a fun way to start spring break!
