Gracie in the House!

You know how sports teams sometimes run onto the field through a huge paper banner?

Here comes Grace!

If you were two, wouldn’t you think that was the funnest thing ever?

Come on. You would too.

Every week, we receive two little newspapers in the mail. They’re free, and they’re full of community events and classified ads. We can’t opt out of them. Everyone in the township gets them.

We’ve got a new tradition going.

When the little newspapers arrive, I cut three thin slices from the spine of the paper. Joe holds them up, and Grace runs through them. It goes by quickly, but Grace loves it.

She laughs and laughs and laughs.

‘Gain! ‘Gain! ‘Gain! She giggles.

See her cape? I posted a tutorial to show you how to make your own superhero cape earlier this week.

Hahaha! What a fun way to use those useless newspapers! :D

I gotta check out the tutorial too. I’m sure the cape will be fun to make as well.

So cute! My 2 year old would love it! And he wore his super hero cape (actually 2 of them) all morning! I really do love running errands with a superhero in tow; it makes everyday errands so much more exciting!
