In Vermont

These first three pics are among my favourites of all those taken of Grace so far. She's started to smile a lot, especially when she first wakes up, and even seems to giggle a little bit at times.





This was us getting ready to go for a walk. She looks like a starfish in this oversized snowsuit. Her arms barely reach to the elbows.




This is Grace with her Aunt Ann. They spent some quality time hanging out on the couch.

Sleeping in the Big Bed

These first two were taken one morning when we put her in our bed for a few minutes. I love the way her hands are folded under her head. The last family-portrait-with-dog took some posing. So far Ceilidh doesn't seem to recognize that Grace is actually a person, since she doesn't move around like one. She'll figure it out when Grace starts pulling on her ears.

Being Yuppies In The Park

On the day we took this walk in Trexler Park in Allentown, the park was full of young couples with children who looked like us, creating the sensation of being on the set of a bizarre suburban movie.

All Dressed Up

Grace has a wardrobe that has to be seen to be believed, full of gifts from our wonderful family and friends and wall-to-wall pink. This is a hand-knitted sweater and hat that came from her Aunt Helen in Scotland. We got all dressed up for a doctor visit.




It was all pretty exhausting so she had to have a nap with Mom.
