Gracie is 9 months



This is Gracie's first time really wearing shoes as you can see she has quite round feet, they are so cute, Aunt Ami found these cute shoes that were wide enough for her to wear!




My Aunt Cindy gave Gracie this dress, it was so cute on her today!







I can't believe Gracie is already nine months old, she is growing so fast. She is still a happy baby, she loves watching the kids and has started moving across the couch!

Hangin Out with my little Sister





































We have been hanging out with my baby sister who is now almost 17 lately while my parents have been gone, these pictures are from 2 weeks ago when she came and stayed 4 nights at our house, we decided to make a colorful breakfast for dinner, we added food coloring to our food and the kids loved it! This guy is her boyfriend Stezen the kids adore him, he is a great guy who has amazing musical talent, I had Brittney try on my wedding dress for fun, it has been preserved in a box for 5 years I opened it because we are having a temple night next month for Young Womens. So here we are again another weekend with Brittney, we stayed Thursday and Friday night with her this time at my parents house in Paul, I am using her computer while Jeff, Stezen, Brittney and the kids are watching a movie, we made dinner, sat in the hot tub and we now are watching our 2nd movie, oh yea did I mention we are in our pj's just hangin out together, I love nights like these!
(oh yea a funny story tonight after work i picked up Maylee and she said why are we going back to Grandma's is she home, I said no not yet, she then wanted to know why we were going back I told her we had to babysit Aunt Brittney, she said so you mean Brittney goes to school in the day, then she comes home at night so we can babysit her, I said yes- she then said why do we do that I told her Brittney gets scared, and she has a boyfriend so if you have any of those things you have to be babysat! She agreed that it was a good idea for us to go babysit her!)
THANKS FOR LETTING US BABYSIT YOU BERT, LOVE YA!

Interesting Fact... for some people!

Okay I know it's sounds kind of crazy but I have been keeping track of exactly how many cans of formula we have used for Gracie, everytime I open a can I put a peice of paper in this jar by the formula cupboard so we have just opened our 43rd can of formula, she is almost 9 months old, we buy the parents choice from WalMart it costs $12.88 a can so for 43 cans it costs $553.84 my friend at work kept track of every diaper she bought I thought this would be easier and interesting, for some people!!!!

I want to feed my sister


Maylee really wanted to feed Gracie so I let her hold her in the chair and feed her, she fell asleep in Maylee's lap I love this pictue of Maylee looking at her, hopefully these two can always be best friends. Maylee likes to take Gracies's toys away and put them on theopposite side of the room, then she goes back to what she was doing before, she does'nt even play with them! I keep telling her someday Gracie is going to be stealing her toys!!!!!

So that's why high chairs recline!!!!!




I was making dinner and Gracie was tired and hungry all and the same time so I put her in the high chair and she fell asleep, I reclined the chair and let her snooze during dinner. When she woke up she looked a little confused as to why she was in the high chair!!! She is now crawling useing her knees and arms she can get around pretty quick! She loves to play with the kids, she is growing so fast and is a complete joy!!!
