Itchy Worm

Grace has discovered green inch worms. SHe loves them and calls them "cute itchy woam" ie cute inchy worm. She holds them on her finger tips and pets them and tickels them saying "Tikle Tikle itchy woam" Today we got home and she told me all about her worms of the day how hey are cute. She also likes to call for them saying "Itchy woam whea r u?" And goes and looks for them.

POTTY TIME!

Me and my mom bought Grace a potty yesterday. One for each of our houses and exactly the same (disney princess), that way she can get used to it. Grace is now OBSESSED with the potty. Yesterday when she arrived at my mothers house with auntie Jill she ran right over to it and knew it was her "potty." She tried to rip her pants right off so she could sit on it. She then carried it around the house from room to room yelling "Gracie's potty" and would periodically sit on it. One time she ran into my parents sun room with it, but then pee'd on the floor! whoops!

Grace wouldn't put it down! She had us put her potty on her chair at dinner. She ate her dinner on her potty. Mid dinner she piddled! and me, mom, and dad all clapped and yelled "hooray!" She was so proud of herself. Once we got her home she saw that she had yet another potty at our house! Again she wanted to sit on it immediately! She sat on it for about 45 minutes and then it was time for bed. She wanted nothing to do with her diaper! Once Chris and I were able to pin her down and get it on she was screaming like a wild animal. She started running throughout the house screaming "No Dypie!" She got so upset she started throwing up! She has never been sick so she didn't know what was going on :( 

The scene went like this: Grace screaming and running throughout the house trying to rip off her diaper, Chris and I chasing her around trying to calm her down, Chris with a plastic cup and I with a towel. Periodically catching the vomit with whatever prop we had! She was running from the kitchen to the living room and back! She managed to get sick on the stairs, living room area rug, living room table, kitchen floor, and her tea party table. This lasted about 20 minutes. We didn't know what to do! Finally I said "gracie do you want to watch Shrek?" she stopped in her tracks, stopped screaming, looked at me and said "ya!" She was fine instantly! Thank god for Mike Myers.

Now she is wearing "big girl pants" AKA pull ups. don't make the mistake of calling them diapers, she'll FREAK!

Boston in the Sprin- For Auntie

So, Chris and I went into Boston a few weeks ago for his College Rugby reunion. We stayed at the Park Plaza Hotel jut outside the Boston Common.

Anyway, it was one of the first nice spring weekends so we walked all over the place, through the common, down Boylston street etc... I saw all the trees budding and thought I'd take some pics for Aunty Cyndy, I know she misses the seasons...

SO, these are for Aunty Cyn!! Love you!

Last Week

So, Miss grace was at daycare last week about to eat her snack. I packed her Chocolate Yogurt. Vicki unpacked it and put it in a bowl, when it was placed in front of Grace she pushed it away and scolded Vicki saying, "No Poopies!" Vicki told her it wasn't poopies it was yogurt, Grace then replied back with a stern "NO POOPIES!" needless to say she did not eat it.

Today:
Grace was playing with the stereo this morning, my mom said “No Gracie” and nicely moved her away. Grace looked at her and said “No Pushing!”

Yesterday:
Chris woke Grace up while getting ready for work, so she came and slept in our bed with me for the morning. Chris continued to make noise while getting ready in the bathroom. Grace popped her head up, tapped me on the face and said "what's daddy doing mommy!?"
