She had her four month check up this week and Dr. Halbur says she's a perfectly healthy little girl. She's average for weight and in the 75 percentile for height....it's those long & strong legs. She loves her exersaucer, and if she's being held she's usually standing or jumping on your lap.

Grace and I made a spontaneous trip back up to ND a week ago and had a fabulous time! Other than the REALLY messy diaper at about 30,000 feet she was a cooperative flier again.
While in ND Grandpa Neil drove us up to see Great Grandpa Pat and Great Grandma Loretta. We had lunch at a fabulous remodeled restaurant in Velva. They had an old soda fountain and the back of the store is a quilting shop. It was so nice to Grandma and Grandpa and listen stories about them growing up around there.

From there we headed to Sarah, Kris and Anna's where the girls got to play together. As Aunt Abbey described, Anna and Grace are "besties" (best friends).
Below are some links of the girls playing and Anna in the tub. Anna taught Grace how much fun bath time can be. Grace used to just relax in the bath and treat it more like a spa, but since witnessing Anna's excitement for bath-time Grace now splashes and kicks in the tub, too.

With nicer weather in ND (FINALLY!!!) Grace and I played outside, looked at the cattle and the horses and giggled at the dogs...who knew dogs could be so fun?!?!
Grandma Jan babysat while I ran errands. She and Grace got to go to the capital and meet all of the ladies (Grandma's coworkers). Grace apparently soaked up the attention!
Grace continues to be a Cubs fan, although we watched some Twins games at the ranch and loved those, too. We're waiting for a bit warmer weather before we head down to Des Moines for Grace's first Iowa Cubs game. Daddy says she can hardly wait! I think Daddy can hardly wait.
