THREE

Three. I can't believe Gracie is three. There is something about your first born getting older. For me, I hate it. I love it, but I hate it. Grace and I are buds. For two whole years it was just the two of us. Running all over town, shopping, walking, killing time. She is amazing. She has been the best natured little thing from day one. I knew her personality before she was even born. She is stubborn, and I love her for it. I can't believe that I was able to luck out with such an amazing little girl. I love her so much. Is it possible to be best friends with a three year old? I crack up at her all day. She always says "ahhh mommy, am I driving you crazy today?" She knows. She knows the days she drives me crazy. Tonight when I kissed her goodnight I said, "Gracie, thank you for being my little girl. Thank you for all of your help with Mike and for all you do for mommy." She quietly replied, " thank you for my chapstick" I love her so much. SO SO SO MUCH. Happy Birthday baby girl.

What we've been up to

I am behind on my pictures!! I'm not doing a very good job of keeping this thing updated like a journal, but I do write on it more than my journal so that is a plus. Anyways, things have just been pretty lame around here. We haven't been up to much just a few things here and there! We went to Dallin's first birthday party, it was so fun to let the kids play in the dirt. Then we had some family over for a little party for Gracie. Her birthday is monday but we combined it with a cousin. And last but CERTAINLY not least, Chad finished the office!! Well, almost, we still have to finish furnishing it and put the molding around the windows and ceiling, but I can't believe he built it alone. Well, lots of help from Austin, but none-the-less, he did amazing for not knowing what he was doing. Here are the photos!!!

I feel like he is getting so big!! He is actually in a high chair!
