STORIES:
She tells me that she wants to do everything "by herself." I love the independence!
(For example...potty, carseat, getting in her chair at the table, etc.)
Anytime she sees an airplane, she says "Daddy ride airpwane."
She loves babies and thinks every baby is Abby.
(My cousin has a little girlnamed Abby who Grace adores.)
While watching "Little Bill" the other day before nap, Grace randomly said "Daddy name Jeff, Mama?" I told her yes and asked if she knew my name and she did. They're little sponges!
She loves to put "makeup" on with Mommy and loves to brush her own hair.
She always seems to remind me that she needs her deodorant each morning when I put mine on.
And of course, when going out on the town she always needs perfume. (Is she a girl or what?)

Cuddles in "Daddy's bed" watching cartoons for a little while

Cuddle time on the couch with Mommy either reading a book, looking at pictures or watching a short cartoon.
Naptime @ 1:30PM until about 3:30PM
(we try really hard not to wake the sleeping bear from her nap because if we do she will be extremely grumpy. She comes by it honestly. Mommy is just like this.)
Afternoon snack after nap, if it's not too late.
