Happy Easter!

Gracie was standing in front of the mirror on the back of our bedroom door this morning, admiring her Easter dress. I put on my shirt and she moved out of the way and said, "Here, you can see how you look." I said, "How do you think I look?" She said "I think you look stylish!" I laughed and told Sean about it and then she added..."That's how you say beautiful in Chinese!"

She has been watching a lot of Ni Hao, Kai-lan on Noggin lately, can you tell? LOL! :)

Ahhh, Gracie makes me laugh!

So I am trying to get some work done before 3:00 and Gracie asked me if I would punch out a flower for her to play with out of cardstock. I told her I would do it after I met my deadline and to go find something to play in the meantime. She continued asking and I again told her, "no, not right now" and she started crying. I told her that if she didn't stop crying she would have to go back to bed because that meant she was too tired to play, at which point she wailed, "but it's good for your sooouuuuullllll!" (to cry, that is).

She was a bit miffed that I cracked up and kept telling me that it wasn't funny, but I still think it is. By the way, she is going to be 4 in July. Melodramatic, much? :) For good measure, here is a pic of my little drama queen (with her little sister drama queen in training):



Back later with the cards from my stamp camp last week. :)

Gracie's Funny

So for Christmas I got Sean a small, very cheap MP3 player, as we didn't want to spend a lot of money for gifts this year and it was only $37.00, much cheaper than the i-Pod model he would have chosen in an ideal world. :) Since we have been working out regularly, the MP3 player has been used a lot and we have been going through our CD collection and choosing our favorite songs from each CD so we can work out to them. On the Barenaked Ladies CD, Rock Spectacle, one of our favorite songs is "If I had 1,000,000." Gracie must have heard this song when Sean was loading it onto the computer to transfer to the MP3 player and has lately been requesting that we sing, "If I had $2.00." It cracks us up...I guess $2.00 is a lot of money to a three-year-old girl, huh?! LOL!
