Grace's Trip to Florida

For some reason, these pictures are in no order whatsoever.

On the way back home, their flight was cancelled shortly before it was supposed to take off. The rental car had been returned and the house was an hour and a half away and the airport hotel was probably not going to be very baby friendly so they hopped a bus to Disney World for Grace's first trip to the motherland. Dad quickly established a "no parks" rule so instead they hung out by the pool and walked around the shops until it was time to go back to the airport the next day.

Checking out the flowers outside the house.


Standing in front of some giant tortoise thing.

Swimming in the pool.


This is actually back in Vero Beach where there is a Disney resort that has character breakfasts.


Grace enjoys sitting in chairs for some reason.

Getting ready to go out.

Ready for the pool.

She liked swimming but more than anything else she liked playing with her rubber ducks at the edge of the pool.

Her first plane ride.


Getting a new purse for the trip.

Grace's New Favorite Play Spot



Uh Oh, Spaghettios!



The Great Bread Caper

Sneaky Grace got into the fridge when Mom left the door open. She grabbed a loaf of bread, opened it up, and took out the last two pieces and went to town with her new snack.


After walking the bread around the room, she decided to share with her partner in crime.



When Mom took away one of the pieces, Grace, sensing her fun was almost over, shoved the other piece into her mouth.

Sharing the last bit with Jake.

Trying to get back into the fridge for more.

A Whole Mess of Birthday Pictures

Kaitlyn's 2nd Birthday Party

Grace checking out Kaitlyn's gifts.

Grace and Olivia hanging out with the wrapping paper.

Playing with Kaitlyn's new ball.

Bogarting Kaitlyn's new chair.


After the party we hung around for a while until Grace was ready for bed. Shortly before we left, Kaitlyn wanted Grace to sit on her lap in her new chair. Of course, we were too slow with the camera and these were the best pictures we could get.



Luca's First Birthday Party
Ok, so Grace couldn't actually go to Luca's party but she did get her party favor early and enjoyed playing with it. It was a monkey themed party and this is Grace in her monkey hat.

There was also a rubber duck in the bucket. Grace loves rubber ducks.

Digging around for more stuff.

Olivia's 1st Birthday Party
Grace had her first taste of ice cream.

As you can see, she didn't really care for it.

But then decided that she did.

Grace had fun outside carrying and pushing a milk crate around.


Then Kaitlyn came out and we all went for a little walk.

This is how Jake eats most of his meals now.
