Lacy and Gracie

As most of you know I don't wear much makeup so when Gracie was born I got a little nervous. Who is going to teach her about clothes, shoes and makeup (don't worry I have boys covered). Thank goodness Auntie Lacy lives close by. She taught Gracie the tricks of the trade at our dinner date last night.

Pucker up.

Don't they look marvelous!!!

Sophie

The Leary's game to visit us during their Thanksgiving trip. It was my first time to meet Miss Sophie and she is absolutely adorable. Gracie loved her and just kept bringing her toys (and then taking them away).

Should I give you a kiss here?

Yes, right here on the cheek.

It was so great hanging out with y'all. The house next door is ready for you...

Snow!!!

We woke up this morning and it was snowing!!!! Gracie's very first snow. She loved it and kept asking for an umbrella. It turned to rain pretty fast but it was great watching her play in it. I hope it snows again soon because she really wants to make a snowman.

Thanksgiving

David and I hosted Thanksgiving up here this year mainly because the Cowboys were playing at home and we had tickets. Nana, Pa and Grams came up along with Dave, Beth, Jordan and Cameron. We got there early and set up shop.

Gracie cooked us up some sausage and brauts.

Pa and Grams are having a great time. It was a great game and the Cowboys won!!!

We did the full Thanksgiving feast the next day. David and Dave decided it was such a beautiful day that they would go golfing. They had a great time but since they were in charge of frying the turkey, lunch turned into dinner and unfortunately the Hartmans had to leave.

So we had a TON of food for five people and one toddler. If anyone wants leftovers come on over.

Snails

One afternoon Gracie and I were playing in the front yard and found a group of snails. I tried to make them race but they were taking too long so I just had Gracie touch them. I love getting to relive childhood experiences with her. I remember making mud pies and topping them with snails and rolly pollys.

Cuteness

My Mom came up for a few days this week. It was so much fun, we did a lot of shopping and projects around the house. Here's Gracie and Gigi showing off their purses from Ecuador.

Check out this awesome hat that Gigi crocheted.

We also got to babysit John Marshall, Gracie's 2nd cousin, on Saturday night. He is so freaking cute. Gracie loved playing with him until he puked on her head! I asked if she wanted a baby brother and she said NO!


I also wanted to document Gracie has been semi potty training. She has peed and pooped in the potty several times. I'm so incredibly proud. I think we will get serious about it after Christmas.

Dance Party

David and I don't go to clubs anymore but every once in a while you just want to DANCE! Gracie is always the life of the party. She's got some sweet moves.
