Week in Review

Oh what a week!

After a weekend filled with sickness, we spent Sunday with Pat watching the Bears lose what turned out to be a close game and me watching How to Train your Dragon with Grace and Ella. LOVE this movie! Even Ella enjoyed it, Grace insisted she cuddle on the couch with her!



Luckily the sickness has left the house and we enjoyed the last week of Pat and I sharing stay at home duties- I think he loved it but is happy to be going back to his regular 5 days a week work schedule where he comes home every night to give some love to the girls in his life!

Sweet sister cuddles were caught on camera one morning! (I swear no babies were hurt while capturing this picture!)


Sweet smiles, baby cuddles, and cute toddler antics filled our week in between our days at work.



Seriously, how big is Ella getting? Doesn't she look big? She is definitely teething, a lot earlier then I remember with Miss Grace, and it has created a bib shortage in our home!


Now, this one, although cute, as you can see below, has been giving her parents a rough go of it this week! Everyone keeps saying it is the age, I am hoping this is true! She is testing, testing, testing us, but so far, I feel like we are keeping a slightly upper hand. So, I am going to call it a win for the parents right now! (as a large garbage bag of her toys are sitting on ground next to me waiting to be reclaimed as her behavior improves!)




One of the highlights of the week is swimming lessons for Gracie! She is currently taking lessons at the YMCA and this was her third week. There is only one other student in the class with her which is so nice, she just loves it! We are getting her prepped for our trip to Florida in March to see Grandpa Craig and Grandma Cathy- she is so excited!

Here she is rocking a bathing suit that was handed down by my wonderful friend Amanda and her three daughters- Grace seems to think a trip to the pool is a fashion show and takes it very seriously!


Yes, I know the kid needs a hair cut, that is on my to do list for next week!

Now Pat and I are having a relaxing evening while Miss Ella is sleeping and Gracie is having a sleepover at Grandpa Tom and Grandma Pam's house. I just received the below picture, it cracks me up, I have to say, she definitely knows how to tire a person out!!!


Hope everyone had a wonderful week!!!
