Springtime, Bugs, and Birthdays

Grace has been sick for what seems like weeks now.  We visited the pediatrician on Thursday and he thought she might have a sinus infection, so she's on antibiotics now.  My guess is it's just another virus, because the medicine doesn't really seem to be helping.  It sure hasn't been keeping her down, though.  Maybe that is part of the problem.

We had a mostly enjoyable dinner out to the Beaverton Tavern tonight for my Mom's birthday.  Grace made Nomma a beautiful birthday card with lots of rainbows and sheep - her favorite.  She also refused to nap today, and as a result, she was very squirrely, making for a less than relaxing meal.  She took a quick nap in the van on the ride home, but it clearly wasn't enough.  She did have fun blowing bubbles for the first time tonight, and  I took advantage of the beautiful lighting in the front yard to capture some springtime shots.

Bubbles!

Finally getting the hang of it... 

 Grampa's girl...

I love Crocus...

and Daffodils...

and these purple beauties.

 Tree worms?  Not so much...

I wish Grace would have felt better today.  It was a beautiful day.  A perfect day to run around at the lake.  Hopefully tomorrow she'll feel better.  We're all looking forward to seeing Uncle Seth and coloring Easter eggs at Nomma and Grampa's house.
