Gracie woke up and was a very happy and snuggly girl. She couldn't wait to watch Mickey Mouse Club House. That makes getting her dressed much easier for me too. She concentrates on that and doesn't fuss as we change clothes. The transition of changing her clothes is still one of her biggest issues.
Gracie was a good girl in the car on the way to daycare and we sang songs. It was raining at a pretty good rate when we got out of the car and Gracie was all smiles when she felt it hit her face. She liked that mommy ran from the car to the house too.
Jeff picked up Gracie at about 4:00 p.m. and came home in the snow. We had an inch or two of really sticky wet snow, so Jeff made a snowball and gave it to Gracie in her hand. She loved it and held onto it for about 5 minutes.
When I got home Gracie was in a great mood. She greeted me at the gate with a huge smile and she was a happy girl pretty much all night. She also had some new verbal words for us tonight. Jeff was reading her a book with a cow in it and he was telling her that the cow says "moo". She said "moo" and then kept turning back to that page so she could say "moo" over and over again. She was so proud of herself for saying it too. She kept looking back at me and smiling to make sure I heard her and gave her the appropriate encouragement and cheering. She also signed milk to tell us that is what the cow makes. I have been trying to get her to say moo for months and it finally clicked. Then she wanted another book about sisters read to her. Jeff told her to bring the book over and she repeated "book".
Grace was smiling pretty much until she fell asleep! Ahhhh, I love days like this.
Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
