Everyday Grace

27 Weeks.

I've been pretty camera shy this pregnancy, but I suppose it still should be recorded...

After getting a sleeping bag a few weeks ago, Grace has been dying to go camping. As a very experienced hiker and backpacker, Daddy was happy to oblige. The unusually warm weather this week provided the perfect opportunity to get in a camp out before winter.

The happy camper, all ready to go:

Setting up the tent:

Checking out her new digs:

Waiting for the campfire:

(Side note: Camping should not be allowed to be this pretty!)

Good think our campground comes with a playground:

Cooking dinner & hanging out with other campers:

Mmmm, hot dog....

Even more yummy: smores!

See? Much yummier.

After the campfire was out, we read a story, and then Grace and Daddy (and nearly flashlight/lighted object in our possession) climbed into the tent. I went to sleep inside in my own bed :) I didn't expect Grace to last all night in the tent...but at 6:30am, I had to go wake up both my campers to come eat some pancakes! Grace is already asking when she can camp out again (as in, tonight??).

Thanks for a fun evening, Daddy!

First Day of School

Grace started preschool today!!

Started off with a yummy breakfast...

Proceeded to the obligatory 1st Day Photo Session...

Which continued at school...

And found her way straight to the dress up clothes, within 30 seconds of entering the room.

The photos stop here, because mommy just had to stop and watch...and cry.

Grace showed fantastic independence...if she'd had it her way, I never would have even come in the room with her. She tried to turn around and wave goodbye at the threshold of the door.

Within 5 minutes, she asked when I was leaving.

And when I came to pick her up, 3 hours later, she cried...because she didn't want to leave (or take off the dress up clothes).

I think she's counting the minutes until Monday.
