Underwear Burps

It has not been a particularly exciting week-we're all recuperating from a stomach virus that has made its way through our home and the homes of many of our friends.  Our experience was fairly mild compared to some other stories I've heard lately.

Tonight we ate Subway for dinner (which I don't think I was necessarily ready for).  While lying in bed with Grace tonight, snuggling and discussing our day, I commented to her that my sub was giving me the burps.  She then told me that her sub was giving her underwear burps and proceeded to crack herself up.  Silly goose...

Candy, Hearts and Love

After some Valentine crafts this morning, Grace and I put together a Valentine set for my upcoming mini sessions.  She was happy to sit and snack on candies, asking me what each one said.  The sayings sure have changed since I was a kid- "Email me" being just one example.
