  Seriously, I think she cried more yesterday afternoon more than she ever, ever has!  We gave her some tylenol and that seemed to help - she finally went to sleep and woke up her happy usual self. :)  
  But, fortunately Matt had a little bit of time at home this morning so I did a quick 30 minutes outside.  It felt SO GOOD!  I even ran in the rain I wanted to get out there so much!  I feel ready to take on the day with a 2-year-old and a baby now!!

) Everyone was really, really nice, and I had a really great time chatting with everyone.  There was a girl about my age that I seemed to really "click" with...I could totally see us being friends. 
  He was sitting on my FIL's lap, and I thought he was just tired, but then I felt Grant and he was *burning up*.  His fever was 101.9!  Poor guy.

  Since Gracie is now so vocal and interactive, Grant is really liking her "talking" to him.  When she starts cooing and making her little baby noises, Grant will go over and say "ghheee" and "ooooh" back to her in his cute little 2-year-old way.  It's so sweet.  
  I'll always remember that at around 51/2 weeks, when I was wondering if Grace was really socially smiling or not, her first smile was definitely to her brother. 
  It was so beautifully cool!  We got ready and went to a new playground, which Grant just had a blast at! It was a little "big" for Grant, but he still had a great time - he *loved* the big, twisty slide - he probably climbed the stairs and went down the totally-enclosed slide 30 times!  He went down fast and would always come out all staticy-headed and laughing. I played with him, wearing Grace in the sling, all while sipping my non-fat latte.  Just a beautiful morning!
  I did 3.3 miles in 35 minutes.  whew!  I can definitely tell I'm getting my groove back, though, post-Gracie - doing 30 minutes of running is fairly easy, instead of having to kill myself step-after-step to reach 30 minutes!  
  America's Got Talent, here i come! ;-)
