Snow Day!

This weekend I had my first snow day! I begged Daddy to take me out in it.

When we were done playing, I came in and helped bake some cookies with my Mommy!

“You need the chips Mommy?”

“I got the chips.”

“And they’re all mine!”

Fleeting Expressions

It is amazing to watch Grace’s ever-changing facial expressions.   I spent Christmas break trying to capture these fleeting first expressions … here are a few to share.

“My 1st Christmas”

I’d have the exact same face if someone dressed me in a giant fuzzy bear costume and set me in a vibrating chair on the top of a desk.

The Smiles are coming!!  There have been *much* bigger ones, but this is all I could capture on camera (so far).

Always a favorite — Oooooooo!!!!

= )    I love all the expressions that come “built in”:  yawns, sneezes, stretches

I came in one morning to get Grace and found this on her shelf.  She must have done it in the middle of the night!!!  ; )
