Off the Bottle, Softball , Swimming & Baby Katie

No more bottles!!!! Gracyn has officially graduated to the sippy cup exclusively this weekend. It's nice not to have to clean bottles and mix stinky formula. Yeah Gracyn!

Luke played in a softball tournament all day on Saturday in Ft. Lauderdale. They played 6 games and took 2nd place. He actually met a guy who's family has a cabin in Grand Rapids, MN!!??? Today he downed the Advil and took a short nap. We then headed to the Miller's house and went swimming. Gracyn LOVES the water. Both Gracyn and Baby Sarah are little sharks.

GIRLS RULE!!! Our friends Lisbeth and Jarrod had a baby girl (they didn't know what they were having) on Monday and I went to visit. She is absolutely beautiful! I forgot how tiny Gracyn used to be... We are so excited for them and can't wait to spend more time with Katie.

Happy Easter!

Easter weekend was quite the event. We celebrated our friend Lindsey's 6th birthday party.... bounce house, cotton candy, and cake were the big events. Gracyn and her bff Sarah loved the bounce house!

Birthday Girl! Miss Lindsey Miller

Pool Side....

Thanks to Grandma B and hot weather. . . Gracyn got to enjoy her new pool. As you can see from the slide show below, she LOVED it. Now that Gracyn is officially a toddler, her personality has exploded in the last few days. We have to keep our eye on her EVERY second. She found a new use for her music chair and has also been on the phone all weekend trying to get a hold of her Uncle Adam. Tonight we are going to a Florida Panthers Hockey game. Look for pictures to come. I have to go clean up the floor now, Gracyn has launched her strawberries and bananas!!!

Happy 1st Birthday Gracyn Ella

It's hard to believe that our 7lb 1oz baby girl is 23 lbs and on the move! We had a memorable 1st birthday party with Gracyn and a memorable 56th with Grandma B. Both Grandma and Grandpa Johnson and Schipper traveled to South Florida for the festivities. Our adventures included a trip to the Palm Beach Zoo, sunrise at the beach, a hike in the Everglades, and Wash-shoe tournaments. Despite the chilly Florida weather, 50 degrees at times, both Grandpa's managed to get a sunburn! Check out the 2 slide shows below...
