The Beach.

This morning, we packed up and headed to the beach.

Allie was content to play with the sand while sitting on the blanket. We tried to get her into the water but she wasn't really into it.

This girl was AMAZING. She has never been this comfortable walking on the sand or playing in the water before. It was so awesome to see her having so much fun at the beach. While we were all playing on the blanket, this little boy came along and started playing with our soccer ball. Gracie started playing with him and didn't even notice that she as running around on the sand without shoes on. After the little guy left, I asked her if she wanted to go down to the water. I was really surprised that she let the water touch her feet. It was cold, but she did not care. She just wanted to keep playing. It was great to see her having so much fun.

She also had a lot of fun in the water with Dad.

Sunday.

This is a cute picture, of a cute girl, who really needs a bath. This girl hates her bath so I really have to gear up for it. Daddy said not to give her a bath while he is at work--something about Gracie needing extra emotional support... =P She will be getting a bath when Daddy gets home from work. Absolutely. What else had Gracie been up to? She is starting to recognize us. She will occasionally look up at me and smile. Other times she looks at me like "who are you again?". Yeah. She is starting to "talk" a little bit. She can get her fist up to her mouth and suck on her hand. Sometimes. She will lay on the floor on her blanket for short periods of time. She hung out in her swing for a little while this morning. She loves to be in the sling . Unfortunately, she has been fighting some tummy issues. She was getting more formula and I think it was upsetting her tummy. Big time. So, we are back to just nursing. That has helped some but she still get "the gases...

Gracie Arrives.

I have been meaning to get into the habit of posting. I think about it every day. Then, the day gets away from me. But, I know there is so much that I am going to want to remember so I am going to try really hard to get something posted every week-day. May as well set the bar high, right? =) So, I thought I would start with a recap of Gracie's birth. Wed Oct 15th: We have our 39 week doctor appt. We are scheduled for an ultrasound before the dr visit. The ultrasound shows that the baby is 8 pounds 14 ounces. Mommy is a little stunned and has a hard time getting up and leaving the office. We see the dr and he explains that the baby could be one pound bigger or one pound larger than the weight the ultrasound showed. Either way we are looking at an 8-10 pound baby. Mommy is still in shock. The dr checks me and determines that nothing is really happening and things are not favorable to induce the baby. We can wait and see if I go into labor or we can schedule a c-section. If we get...

Beach Friday.

Gracie has been asking to go to the beach lately and today was the day. We packed up our beach toys, blanket and sunscreen and headed to check out Imperial Beach. We found a great (free) parking space. We loaded the stuff and the girlies into the double jogger and hit the beach. We played for about an hour and they girlies had so much fun. Gracie even wanted to walk down to the water and put her feet in!--that water was COLD! We can't wait to go back SOON.
