1) We are ALL healthy at the Hartman house!
2) Grace will now clap just about every time I sing... "if you're happy and you know it..." It's pretty cute.
3) We had a great weekend! Grandma Shirley came and relieved us by loving on Gracie all weekend.
4) Shirley and I also went to some great garage sales (and some not so great!!!) I got G some wooden puzzles, a rocking horse, and a little farm fridge magnet thing and they were all great deals!
5) I ALSO found a super cute tea kettle. I haven't had one for a few months and if you are a tea person you will know that microwaving it is NOT the same. I have had three cups of tea in the past two days and it's been great!
6) This little clapper has decided that naps are for babies and since she's almost 11 months she's over it. We are lucky to get a half hour or so out of her each time.
7) I have book club tomorrow! I'm excited for the company of the ladies and also the discussion of a good book.
8) On one of our walks this past week we stopped to visit our friend Judy S. and she has two dogs. Grace LOVES animals! She doesn't mind them in her face and she is wants to see everything they are doing. She also makes this fun little noise when she sees a dog.
9) Gracie loved being outside this past weekend and she loves our walks. She isn't 100% sure about grass though. It's kind of picky and she will not move 1 inch when I set her down.
10) She also has developed a slight fear of the vacuum! She doesn't even want to crawl by it when it's off! I think it's kind of funny. :)

I didn't kill my grass! It grew and I even got to cut it! I used it for my friend Christi's shower. Doesn't it look cute? The little round tag on the top says "O Baby"
My little missy is on the mend. She's still not completely herself, a little clingy and cranky but give her a few more days and she'll be out in the driveway doing this again.
We went to Michigan to celebrate Easter with my family and this little bunny.
Maybe she's growing on him???? :)
Gracie tried out the local delicacy (tire pieces from the playground). She wasn't impressed. Neither was her mother.
She's not much of a dare devil. She doesn't like to be thrown in the air. The slide doesn't thrill her, but she does like to get her swing on!
She does like being with her daddy though! This was right before the slide (that didn't impress her)
1. Gracie likes looking out the glass door. We have squirrels that come up on the porch and she can sometimes see them. She also likes to make noise with her hand by hitting the glass.
2. She is starting to take an interest in her doll, faces, and even a few stuffed animals.
3. She will clap, but often not on demand. (you've got to keep them wanting more right?)
4. I've been scrapbooking and have left it out all month on a table by the kitchen. She likes to get under there while I'm working. I've let her play with stickers and such. She loves it!
5. She does not like the vacuum. (does that mean it's a good thing I don't vacuum like I should?!) Yesterday she totally booked down the hall when I turned it on. then she tried to hide under the bar stool.
6. She is a good eater. She will eat veggies (if you give them to her first).
8. She is into everything. Nothing is safe.
9. She loves to get into her baskets. She's learning how to get out of them. She also dive bombs off the couch, your lap, or anywhere.
it's getting harder and harder to get these pictures!
I did manage to snap one quickly before she rolled and started moving.
This is a sample of the rest of the shots I took. :)
