The New Year has begun and life has once again resumed its usual course. The days seem to all be the same, filled with eating, changing diapers, playing, watching Mickey Mouse, and naps. It is so nice to slip back into uninterrupted schedules without having to be somewhere, or coordinate events around naptimes. Life is a little slower, a little quiter, a little sweeter...but only for now. I should enjoy the downtime, rather than looking or planning the next thing. Gracie's little sister will be here soon and life will once again take off. I do enjoy the freedom to take walks in this gorgeous Arizona weather. These pictures are Gracie's first day swinging at the park. She loved it and wanted to swing forever. She is so much fun to watch. She is starting to learn new things. Toys that she just looked at before, she can pick up and move the parts and interact with them. Gracie is also into talking, mostly in the car. She just goes and goes and doesn't take a breath. Very cute and exciting.
The annual Miss America party is coming up. This year Shannon is flying in for the event, so the party guest list will be short and just the Shrader and the Hall girls! Shannon is also pregnant and expecting her first baby on 8/8/08. Cool date! Can't wait to meet him or her. The party is the same weekend as the Super Bowl! A busy weekend, but lots of fun.
Projects on my list before the baby arrives: new crib and dresser (and other things). Paint Gracie's new Big Girl Room. Teach Gracie to walk ( I don't think I can carry both of them up the stairs!) Find a chair for Gracie's Big Girl Room. Start selling things on Ebay. I will keep you all updated on these ventures and any others that come up. I love you all and hope you have a great week!
