Our "Little Old Lady"

Grace came walking out in these crazy glasses, her pearl necklace and a tutu. I could not stop laughing. She looked like a little old lady from the waste up, but then the tutu added just made it :)

Grace's Park Day

Grace had her first official "leave the school" field trip to a nearby park to end the school year. They children got to ride the church bus and all of the parents met them there for a picnic/play day.

Grace was SOOOO excited to get to ride the bus.




I was a bit worried that Grace wasn't going to have a good time at first. After she got off the bus, she just started crying and was really clingy. I still am not sure quite what the problem was, but she sooned warmed up and was off playing with everyone else. I think it was just such a change of routine for her, she was a bit overwhelmed. I wish I could post more pictures of her day. However, as this is a public blog and for privacy issues I chose not to. Most of them had the church's name on the bus and shirts.

Ear Tubes #2

On April 16th,2010 Grace had her second set of ear tubes placed. Previous to that, she had had one and sometimes two ear infections per month for like 7 months. We had a recheck yesterday and everything looks great. Even more exciting is that she hasn't hadn't had an ear infection since placing the tubes :) Daddy was TDY on a job with the military, so Aunt Beth came to keep us company and love on Grace. Thank you Aunt Beth, you made the day so much easier and kept mommy sane!
