Saint Patrick's Day


Dearest Gifts~

Today is St. Patrick's Day!  Woo hoo!  Since you two are both Irish (from me! maybe some from your daddy?), we dressed you all in green.  Daddy and I wore green as well.  :-)

Well, after you two both woke up at 1am, you two both slept pretty well .... neither one of you woke back up until around 7am.  :-)

Grace, you had a runny nose today, but playful.  We had to wipe your nose off and on, but you appeared relatively fine other than that. 
We had our birthday lunch for daddy today.  Gigi, Grandpa Jim, Uncle James, Mimi, (Great) Aunt Allyson, and Aunt Katie came over.  Grandpa Mike is overseas and Uncle Brennan had to work.  We had lasagna, bread, salad, cake, and cookies!  Whoa!  You two definitely need to encourage me to workout this week to make up for that!  :-P

Daddy opened some birthday gifts, we all visited, and then we walked to the park for some fun.  It was such a beautiful day!  We had to take some water though because it was a little hot.  Plus, you two get red easily since you're Irish!  ;-)  Uncle James was dressed as a leprechaun today!  People were asking to take photos with him at the park!  How fun!

You two were snoring by 3pm .... late naps.  I had to nurse Grace in order for her to nap.  Wonder what we'll do when you're weaned!  :-P

Mimi and (Great) Aunt Allyson came back around 5:30pm and watched you two.  Daddy and I walked up to the restaurants near our house (about one mile from here) and had dinner to celebrate our anniversary.  You two played on the porch some, had some chicken nuggets, and then both had baths. 

I missed you two at dinner.  It was weird just getting a table for two, but it was nice to spent time with daddy.  And, since it was a beautiful day, we had a wonderful walk (a little over two miles total).  :-)

We relaxed this evening before bed.  Tomorrow we head to Hope Mills, NC for a baby shower for our friends Stephanie and Kevin.  We're going to go to a real fire station and see real fire trucks!  How fun!

Sleep tight you two!

I love you both so much!
