The Many Faces of Grace

It has been quite the busy week at the Gore house, although I can't exactly say what it is we've been up to. I just feel like we haven't had a break but yet have nothing to show for it. I guess that's all part of being a parent. Here are a few pictures from the last 2 weeks.

Grace sitting on our bed. She LOVES this bear because, as far as she's concerned, it's actually life size. This bear has a special soft spot in my heart. Aaron gave it to me for Valentines Day when I was 16. I'm so glad I still have it. Grace is too.

For all you moms out there....cold spaghetti noodles from the fridge are a GREAT form of entertainment! We now try to eat as a family as much as possible. On this particular evening, Grace finished her dinner well before Aaron and I were done, so I got her a few noodles from the fridge to play with. She was a total mess by the end of it, but it didn't really matter. Bath time follows dinner, so I just let her get as messy as she wants. It keeps her entertained and actually is great dinner entertainment for us as well. Aaron snapped these pictures in a matter of 30 seconds. It's Grace at play.....

We LOVED the warm, sunny day yesterday. I think Oregonians are especially thankfull for sunny days. I'll be honest, one of the reasons I was so pumped for the warm weather was because I could FINALLY put Grace in one of her cute dresses without having to put her in tights and a sweater too. We spent most of the day sitting in our backyard on a blanket. Grace had to wear a hat as well to keep that sun off her bald head. She wasn't very keen on the hat. After a while we have up and got an umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh for shade. She was also very interested in our sunglasses and kept trying to rip them off Aaron's face. So, I went back in the house and got Grace's very own sunglasses compliments of her Great Aunt Debbie. Here is what happened after we put them on her...

I think they really work for Aaron. What do you think?
