Gracie's night started out restless, but as soon as her tired little head found my stomach to lay on for the night, she slept very peacefully. That is where her head stayed for the majority of the night. She awoke at 6:30 a.m. with smiles. She was a bit more fussy and seemed tired, so I put her back to bed at 10:30 a.m., where she slept for an hour.
Gracie was excited to give me the Mother's Day card she had for me and we plopped down on the floor together to open it. It was very fitting that the card had birds on it...which is what Gracie is quite fascinated with these days.
After a quick lunch we headed to Iowa to see Grandma and Grandpa B., as well as lots of aunts, uncles, and cousins. Grace noticed everything on the way down...birds, horses, cows. It was so much fun to hear her squeals of delight. Gracie had a good day at G&G's and had great undivided attention. We had a shower for her cousin Crystal and her fiance Will. Gracie was thrilled when Crystal (an elementary education teacher who majored in special ed) sang songs and did actions with her. Gracie kept signing that she wanted more music as soon as Crystal would finish with a song.
Gracie also loved watching her two new little baby cousins. Gracie took many of her cousins and aunts around the house for walks. Thank you to all who treated her like a princess today. Gracie was very tired when we left and I was surprised when she fell asleep in the car half way home as she rarely will sleep in the car. She awoke when we got home, but fell back to sleep pretty quickly.
It was a great day.
Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
