Gracie made cookies for the 1st time with Nana Shirley. She loved to stir in the flour & put her fingers in the batter. But the REAL FUN began when it was time to add the chocolate chips. Gracie poured them into the batter & picked them out one by one to eat them...yummy!
Gracie may take after mommy & her love for running :) Despite putting them on the wrong feet, she walked ALL OVER the house in them for about 45 minutes. And she didn't want to take them off either!?!?
Laurie's "mommy friends" SURPRISED her with a baby shower for Baby R. They enjoyed a great dinner (and cupcakes...Laurie's pregnancy craving!!!) at the outside patio at Avenue M. Laurie & Baby R are VERY MUCH looking forward to using the massage gift certificate that they gave her :)
Jen, Leslie, Jenny & I enjoyed a day out without the little ones & went to a Cubs game on Sunday :) Great friends, great weather, great food & a Cubs 8-5 win made it a great day!!
...until Baby Rothleutner arrives!!! And we are ready as "The Girls" room was under construction last week. Kris's parents visited to help us get everything in order & to have some fun with Gracie too. Nana Marci painted bright pink polka dots on the wall (Gracie loves them) & Papa Will put the baby's crib together with a little help from Gracie. Gracie is getting ready for a new roommate & likes having another crib in the room as now her babies have somewhere to sleep :)
