It is really cold. For some reason this winter seems to be dragging by very slowly. Grant got back from inauguration last week and as I'm sure everyone who watched it on TV knows, it went really well. We girls are sure glad that he is home. He went to Grace's school yesterday and read to her class, she thought that was really cool. It seems that I am getting bigger by the minute. I'll try to post a belly picture later. Other than my back and legs aching and not being able to take a full deep breath, I am feeling pretty good. I feel like all would be right in the world if I could only get a little dose of sunshine. But alas, it is still JANUARY. Grace is finally almost fully potty trained. It took her a while but she now makes it to the potty every time- almost. We are very proud, and thankful to have about three months of no poopy diapers in the house:)

Is it spring time yet?

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. We definitely did. Christmas with a three year old is so much fun. Grace had so much fun leaving cookies and milk for Santa on Christmas Eve. In the morning she had a whole pile of gifts including the train set that she asked for. On New Years Eve day we found out that our new baby is a girl! We were both surprised because we were both feeling like it was a boy, but it looks like Grant is going to have a house full of ladies. We spent New Years weekend at Twinbrook with the entire Simmon family, 16 of us all at the house. We spent the whole time eating, talking, and playing plenty of euchre and mafia-it was just what the doctor ordered. Grant's cousin Mike and his wife Lisa have a one year old baby, Sara, and Grace got to practice her big sister skills.
Grace and I are on our own this week, Grant is in Washington DC working on the innaguration. He is one of the production managers for the event and will be there for 5 days organizing and setting up the event, the event itself, and then 2 days for the out. Grace and I are heading to Bourbonnais for the weekend to visit with the fam.
