A WEEKEND WITH GRACE
Grace Martin
Julie and Grace Martin were able to stay with us this past weekend. We went to the pool, the park, and had a great time catching up. Evan and Grace enjoyed lying on their tummies on the carpet and mimicking each other, and also enjoyed making laps to slam up against the sliding glass door simultaneously, like birds hitting a glass pane.
I should also mention that we tried them out both in Evan's room the first night and that was hilarious! I wish I'd rigged a camera. Evan was in his bed and Grace in her portacrib. Grace would yell something and Evan would copy her, and when I stood outside their door to listen, they must've seen my shadow and started chanting, "Mommy! Mommy? Mommy!" At one point Evan began sneaking out of bed and dumping toys into Grace's...this resulted in her bed being moved to the tiny guest bathroom where, despite the toilet portruding into the mesh of her portacrib, and despite the cold dampness, she slept quite nicely for three entire nights...being proof enough that they had a wonderful time together.
