Wednesday :)

Today has been a great day so far!  Grace had school today and it was the last day of school before Christmas break, and so Mommy and Daddy got to go to her class to see all the fun things they do!  There were gingerbread men that the children had decorated all over the walls (Grace didn't do one), little triangle Christmas trees (construction paper with sparkles), plates that had bunched up tissue paper on them like ornaments (the plates were painted green) and they were stacked exactly like a Christmas tree, and Uppercase and lowercase "Gs" decorated with wrapping paper and a big bow.  The class had the sensory table was loaded with flour and grace spent most of the time there!  There was also some time spent at the blocks (which is where Daddy stayed most of the time because the little boys loved playing with him!), we made an ornament with her picture in the middle, and then one of the class workers worked with her on writing her name, taking turns drawing ornaments on a Christmas tree, drawing square presents, and having cookies and hot cocoa!!

 This is Grace's face!  She added all the black pen.  The circle on the bottom of the face is the CHIN!  How cute!!!

And this is wonderful.  See where her name is on the bottom?  Right above the G for her name you see two circles?  The first one is a G, and it even has the line that goes into the G, and the next one is an A!!  She drew a circle and then added a super long T.  WOW!!  Great job sweet girl!!  And do you see the present above the A right after her name at the bottom?  She drew the pen marks by herself.  She was tracing the green lines that the class helper drew.  She worked very hard.

After visiting for the Christmas party we went home for a little while and then went right back out to go to gymnastics.  We went again today because she had a day that she missed, and so this was our make up day.  She was still having trouble listening and so I ended up going out with her.  She did so much better ten, and it was obvious that she could do a lot of things as long as she's got someone on her!  Here is here evaluation page...

See her award at the bottom right corner?  SO CUTE!!!  She passed the white level :)  What a great job, Grace!  We will continue to work on these things while we are out for Christmas break.  

Oh!  After gymnastics we came home and Grace and Daddy had some great fun outside :)  Here's some pictures to share the story.

 Grace went down this ice all by herself!  She didn't really like it but it was easy because we didn't have to pull her around!

After playtime it was lunch time and she wolfed down 5 wedges of apple and 2 bowls of potato soup!  She seriously loves the potato soup.  Nap time just happened at around 2:30 pm...stinker.  So she will probably be in bed until 4 pm.

Oh, we got a present from Dado and Papa!  I got some Sudoku books and word find books, and then Grace got.....

Thank you Dado and Papa!!!

And that's it for now :)
