Grace had her two month appointment on Wednesday and is doing great. She weighs 12 pounds (77%), is 24 inches long (95%) and has a head circumference of 40 cm (80%). She had to get three shots, so for the rest of Wednesday and most of Thursday she was pretty sleepy and cranky when she was awake. It was cute - when she got the shots, Evan was very concerned about her screaming. He looked at the nurses like "what are you doing to my sister?!" He's a good big brother.

Evan's fish tank. It slowly turned into something that Daddy actually loves - he often comes home from work with a new toy or filter for it. Funny how the pet store is right on his way home :)

Grace at 7 weeks. She is such a good baby - laid back and comfortable wherever we go. She now laughs and smiles at us, which of course we love.

We had the pleasure of watching Mya while Amy had a doctor appointment last week...and I love the pictures the kids let me take of them. Too cute, if you ask me.

Aunt Kit and Evan enjoying a Thomas the Train book.

Aunt Mary invited us to the Grand Opening of the new Target at Hilldale Mall, and it was great - tons of food to sample and Evan, Jackson & Mya had a blast running around. When Jackson put on this hat, Evan had to do the same :)

Just so that I remember to put it in his "baby" book, here are a few things Evan has said recently.

• The weather is getting nicer, and I told him that maybe we could get outside and play soon. He said "When?" and I replied "Maybe Monday or Tuesday". He thought for a few seconds and said "How about Threesday?" I guess he made up his own day, I'm guessing it's the day after 'Twosday'.

• He sometimes confuses words and their meanings. A few of my favorites are:
"Mama, you're my best girl." (I think he means favorite).
"Daddy, I'm so proud that you're here!" (Replace proud with happy)

• We were in the car and I said "Oh, I think Gracie pooped." He replied "She's a pooping machine!"
