1 month old

This little chubba turned 1 month old today. She is seriously the sweetest thing ever.

And here's Tom causing a ruckus in the bathroom during Grayce's photo shoot. He likes to brush his teeth (which really means suck toothpaste from the tube and rearrange our toiletries) several times a day. He is really into climbing lately. It's going to give me a heart attack. He scoots his high chair all around the kitchen and gets into the cupboards and freezer and parties on the stove. Or sometimes he just watches out the window for any sign of activity at the Hinrich's house and yells "jonkarajonkarajon!" if he sees one of them. You could say he likes his neighbors.

Here he is on our trip to DC to see the cherry blossoms. They were lovely, but we didn't actually get out to walk along because we didn't know that everyone and their dog was going to be there for the festival and we were stuck in traffic, so we just admired them from our car. We also ate at Tune In (we saw it on Diners Drive-Ins and Dives) which turned out to be a bar and not a restaurant and I was the only female in the joint besides the waitresses and I almost didn't survive the wait for our meal because of the exceedingly rude men next to us smoking all over my babies. Was the fried hamburger worth it? I'm still not sure.

And here are some other photos from the past month:

Tom loves to hold her and help wash her in the bath, put her pacifier in her (and his) mouth, offer her bites of his food, and pat her belly and say "don't cry, baby Grayce". He's such a sweet big brother.
