in honor of their birthdays, i thought i would share some faves of the girls:
grace
favorite color: light blue
favorite food: ice cream and ramen noodles
favorite animal: horse
favorite music: anything by Hannah Montanna
recent saying that got a good reaction from her parents:
using lily's letter computer toy, gracie came up with family code names based on our initials. i ended up being: Ant, Kiss, Mouse, Hippo for my full name. in response, i said:
"so am i small like a mouse or huge like a hippo?"
pat just quietly smiles and i think that's the end until after some thought gracie pipes out:
"i'm going to go with huge!"
[it was said innocently enough, but i did quite emphatically try to teach her that you don't need to answer questions like that.]
