First aided steps

The day before her dad's arrival, Grace took her first aided steps from the fireplace to her coral gate. After making a pivot that almost sent her to the ground, she held my hands at her shoulders and took two steps. Maybe she'll do more when her daddy gets here!!!

You are invited: Grace's 1st Birthday

I have finally decided on Grace's birthday party plans.  It will be May 31 at 2:00pm at the park off 10th Street in Mayfield (just before 1900 South 10th Street- for those with sat navs) at the smaller pavilion.  I believe the name is either Kess Creek or Knob Creek Park. There is no particular theme, just pink decor and "1"s everywhere.  We plan to grill burgers and have a picnic.  In case of rain, it will be on the farm at Poppa T's house.  So come by and enjoy!

Pictures from Auntie Kim of her Moo Moo

This past week, while I was finishing Kim's state taxes, she took some cute pictures of Gracie in her "conductor" outfit. Gracie decided to play with her paparrazo aunt and came out with some great photos. I bought the hat in England with no exact outfit in mind but it was too cute to pass up. Now, all together... "ahhhhh so cute"

Happy Easter!

Grace celebrated her last, first major holiday. We went over to Aunt Dawn's house for ham and dinner.. and they had made her a cute basket full of treats. There were little snacks in the eggs and some jars of food for later. She loved it.

Also, Grace is on her way to recovering from her respiratory infection and cold, thanks for all the well wishes and helpful hands. She still coughs some but the fever is gone and the irritability has lessen dramatically.

Now we look forward to Daddy's visit in a month and planning a 1st Birthday party!

Big Week

Well it has been really hectic the last week or so. We've both been sick with allergies and the cold and I have gotten a temporary job in town and Grace has started day care at Stepping Stones. So far, after two days, she is still doing good. She is eating more solid foods and playing with other kids that love her. Grace even slept for three hours yesterday during nap time!!! Here we are on our way to her first day of daycare..
