Playdate

(Note: This is the 3rd post I've done in the last couple of days, so keep on scrolling if you want to catch up!)

Last Friday, Grace and I went on a playdate with the other podiatry student's wives and kids to Preston's Hope Playground in Beachwood. It was one fabulous playground! There were tons of fun things for the kids to do: themed kid-sized houses, swings, rocking toys, big play structures with slides, and even a big sandbox. This is definitely a playground we'll be coming back to!



Grace was all over the rocker toys, and promptly started rocking herself before I even showed her how to move on them. Rockin' baby, rockin' baby! =) It was too cute!

Taking a ride on the zebra:
The car rockers were her favorite though.
Watch out Cleveland! Grace is behind the wheel!


Silly face!


And a sweet smile. =)


Grace has been really into pointing lately (which is a huge help sometimes in communicating what she wants, especially at meal times).
Hanging out with a dinosaur. She sure loves to stand!


Swinging is something that she's starting to like more and more:


After a morning of playing and having a picnic lunch at the playground, several of us went to the White Flower Cake Shoppe for dessert.

It was cool to go here, because a few of their decorators had been featured in some cake challenges on the Food Network (which we love to watch).

Plus, their cakes were amazing! I got a chocolate cheesecake to share with Travis, and it was divine!


Thanks for the fun morning everyone! Let's do it again soon!

It sounds like you guys are having a fun time. I sure wish we lived closer so we could join in on the festivities. I can't believe how big "baby Grace" is. Cailyn still says that "baby Grace" is the cutest baby. Can't wait to see you guys in a couple of months.

Mindi :)

BTW you look amazing!

I sure do love that park! Glad you got to go check it out, and hopefully there will be more times--since believe it or not, Brandon has still never been there! :)
