One year old!

Dear Grace,
It's hard to believe that you are a year old already!!  Your actual birthday was 2 days ago.  I know you didn't know that it was your birthday, but your daddy and I sure remembered!  You actually got to spend your birthday at home with Daddy because you were sick the night before.  I think it was just something that you ate because you were fine all day.  I'm sorry it's been a couple months since I updated this blog!  Time just goes so fast!  You are growing and changing so much!  I thought I'd write things a little different this time. 

Things that you are doing:
  • Pulling yourself up on everything that you can!
  • Crawling with your knees instead of just scooting across the floor.  You cover ground quite quickly!
  • Sleeping through the night!
  • Eating pretty much the same food as Mommy and Daddy
  • Dancing!
  • Babbling a lot and saying "mama" and "dada"
  • Clapping when we say the word "clap"
  • Waving "bye bye" and "hi" (you usually wave with both hands)
Things that you like:
  • Doing all the things mentioned above
  • Peaches (especially Grandma Jan's canned peaches)
  • Paper (I think this was your favorite part of Christmas!)
  • Music
  • Books.  You actually look and the book and turn the pages instead of just chewing on it now!
  • Playing peek a boo
  • Your cousins.  Kylee and Kody are staying with us this weekend and you just love watching them and playing with them! 
  • Rubbing food in your hair
  • Playing in the tub
Things that you don't like:
  • Getting in your carseat
  • Putting your pajamas on
You are such a blessing to your daddy and me!  We love you, Grace!  Happy Birthday!

Love,
Mommy
