The Edhegard Girls!: Chicago

Chicago

Friday night David met us at the airport. Our flight got in around 9:00pm and we headed for the metro. Anna Claire was excited for her first "train ride." The next morning we headed to the American Girl Store. It was a bit overwhelming. So many choices. Anna Claire decided on a red bathing suit for her doll, and Gracie got a Chicago t-shirt for hers. They could hardly wait to get home to change them. We had gyros for lunch and then stopped by the Hershey Factory for dessert!

Anna Claire

What a busy little girl! She is in school Tuesday and Thursday. On Wednesday she starts the day with playgroup, goes to ballet, tap and acro in the afternoon, and has started mission friends in the evening. She loves singing, dancing, swinging, reading, and dressing up. Her favorite television shows are Dora, Barney, and any Disney Princess. She loves playing with baby dolls. Her favorite games are Candy Land and Memory. She is beginning to be such a great helper. She likes to make her bed, set the table, fold some laundry, and put away dishes. She has the memory of an elephant. She doesn't forget anything, especially promises!

Gracie

This sweet little girl is trying her best to keep up with her big sister! She doesn't have quite as many activities on her calendar but we are working on that. She does have storytime on Tuesday mornings and playgroup on Wednesday mornings. She is starting to listen to us when we read a book, rather that just turn pages. She is pointing out her different body parts, but gets nose and toes mixed up, and thinks it is so funny. She also loves playing with baby dolls, and is really interested in tickling and kissing real babies. She is saying new things everyday. Just like her sister and daddy she loves music and dancing. Her favorite television shows are Dora and Barney. She loves shoes and tries to put on any she can find. She is also a big helper...She likes to take her diaper to the trash can along with other things. The thing she is most scared of is her shadow.
