July 11, 2007

More marker fun was had today.

I asked Grace if she'd put marker on her face and she was certain that she hadn't. Okay, then...

Suki thinks about joining in.

Happy just to be holding the marker.

They're crafty and they're just my type.

Time for some books.

These two are both so interested in them.

An interesting shot of Grace and Dad.

Sisters on the couch.

After several tries at balancing the camera at just the right angle, these were the best shots of our fun time on the couch together.

Trying to postpone bedtime as long as possible.

First, she looks appealingly at Mom.

Then she snuggles up with Dad.

Finally, realizing she's been had, she just cracks up.

Two Grace stories from today:
---------------------------------------------------
Grace: You want to read Fred and Ted?
Laura: Read it to me!
Grace: Please?
Laura: Yes, please read the book to me.

It's good to hear that this whole "use your manners" idea is paying off. And of course, Grace is thrilled to be able to combine politeness with bossiness :)
---------------------------------------------------
(overheard on the monitor while Grace was lying down for a nap with her lamb, chick and duck): Little babies, mmm-hmm. You want to sleep with the little babies? Okay.
