Princess Grace





The Schmidts gave Grace a pretty princess dress up ensemble for the holidays. One night she dragged it all out and wanted to get dressed. She wore just about every item including the clip on ear rings. With her magic wand and her royal subject Ralph by her side, she ruled the kingdom known as her bedroom for a good 10 minutes.


We decided to get Grace a child size table and chairs for the kitchen. She sits in something similar at daycare and thought she would enjoy sitting and having snack at one at home. She has fun moving the chairs around and getting them in just the right spot before sitting down for 5 seconds. Only to get back up and run on to the next thing.


She now has 3 teeth and we can see that the others are going to be coming in very soon. She took longer than some children to get them and is making up for it now. A new one has appeared every 7 days so far.

Current words: Dada, Mama, Moo and No

New words: cracker, Al (our dog)

opinions: many- shakes her head yes and no when she does and does not want something

Latest is that she grew 2 inches and gained 2 pounds in 3 months- we mujst be doing something right.
