4th and 17


Dearest Blessings~

Happy Independence Day!  Today we celebrate when our Founding Fathers put the Declaration of Independence into effect .... and therefore proclaimed our freedom from England!  Woo hoo!  And, we have the day off!  ;-)

Also, today we're 17 weeks gestation with little baby #3.  You two will have to help us think of a name.  Next week is our ultrasound.  :-)

This morning we had some playtime.  Grace, you like to get Joshua to chase you around the house and then you both giggle.  ;-)  Oh, we saw a bunny in the front yard this morning as we were eating breakfast and playing. 

Once people were fed, we did some chores around the house and cleaned up the place.  Daddy cleaned the bathroom and we did the laundry.  We were overdue on all the sheets and pillow cases in the house.  But, they're all clean now!  We also organized the play room.

You both had a good snack time.  Joshua, you had a full cup of applesauce.  Grace, you had a container of yogurt.  Afterward, we had some art time with crayons.  We made Gigi a birthday card .... her birthday is on friday!  :-)

For lunch, we decided to do something fun.  So, we went to the Village Grill restaurant and you all had a little bit of chicken, fries, chips, grilled cheese, and cookies!  Wow! 

Unfortunately, you two both really fought naps!  It was close to 3pm before you two were snoring!  Daddy and I ended up laying down with you two also since we were all tired.  We had a thunderstorm during naptime, so that woke me up.  :-P

During dinner (we just had leftovers) we made sugar cookies!  Some got a little brown, but they still tasted fine.  ;-)  We played downstairs afterward and then headed out for a walk in the wagon.  We went about 2.5 miles and saw more bunnies while out.

We all relaxed when home and then you two had baths.  We listened to fireworks go off as we drifted to bed. 

Tomorrow I head to work, but daddy will be here with you two!  I'll come home as soon as I can!  

Sleep tight little ones!

I love you both so much!
