these past couple of weeks have been a bit of a blur. we’re halfway through my last semester of nursing school, grace had a yucky virus, we had our first ER visit and ale’s schedule has not been mashing with mine too well. i’m kind of in a funk trying to “get through” these next few weeks and then off to our family vacation!!!
here are a few pics not to be forgotten… 
^^grace loves going down to the pool… i’m pretty sure all kids do… but i seriously think she might pick up swimming (check my little fishy out here) and she’s starting to pick out what she wants to wear… i mean why wear boring blue sneakers when you can pick out these shiny mary janes??? i’m with you baby girl… shoes do make the outfit!!!^^
^^so much joy!!! she’d slide down head first if i would let her… she’s so adventurous and daring^^
^^this little face kills me! she wasn’t tall enough to go down the massive inflatable slide at the zoo last week but she was so excited to stand next to the measuring stick?! ^^
^^new books were in order for this little girl. she’s memorized just about all of the books she has at home!^^
^^i never thought seeing all these toys in the bathtub would bring me so much joy… i had to snap a picture of it. it’s messy and my first thought was to clean it up but then i remembered how much fun she has in there and my anxiety of a mess turned into joy. don’t you love it when that happens?^^
^^her pigtails!!^^
^^squeezed in a date night with this handsome man^^
