Pearls, PJs, and Pearly Whites


A whole 16 months and still in awe of the changes. Here is a photo of her in her chef's hat from Grandma Margie & Papa...sorry Adam I cropped you out of the photo. You will understand when you see your hair in the photo :P See those bottom pearly whites?

Over the past couple weeks Gracie is starting to show signs of being a true toddler.

Highlights:

She is letting me know when she is frustrated, some times with words, some times with screams, and some times with even head banging.

There are new words everyday, stuck, yuck, spoon, happy and diaper.

Spoons and forks are necessary for eating or we have one of those frustrated moments stated before.

She loves to use Brandy as her own personal chair every morning. As Brandy waits for us to go downstairs Gracie likes to sit on her as she would a horse.

Gracie now actually gets afraid when we leave her with other people when there is a large group of people or kids. She is starting to get shy.

Her two top teeth are coming in. She is already starting to take after her parent's crooked teeth. The savings for an ortho will be starting soon enough.

She actually gets upset when we leave day care. The social butterfly doesn't want to leave her playmates at all and thinks the sun rises and sets with her friends: Addison, Ava and especially the 5 year old Ella. Ella is one of her favorite words.

If there is a mamote (remote around) she will grab it and ask to watch Mlmo (Elmo). Honestly I think she just wants to hear and watch music played on the TV since music isn't one of her words yet.

Gracie cares for everyone. Monday night her friend Ian was upset and Gracie put her hand on his back to comfort him. She also loves her babies so much any time she sees them.

Here she is enjoying some play time in the morning this past weekend. She loved playing in this tunnel while still in her pjs that were accented by the pearls. How could you not love this little girl?
