We left our home in Houston and drove towards Iowa to visit Grandma and Grandpa.

Swimming in the hotel pool was fun!

School work and eating breakfast – really eating.  She’s eating three times a day.  I can not believe it!  No more baby steps.  This girl is bounding from milestone to milestone! Way to go Bell – you blow me away!
