Thanksgiving Day at the Beach


We spent Thanksgiving in Myrtle Beach. The weather was just perfect, blue skies and gorgeous warm weather. Sara, Gracyn & I snuck off to the beach for a little time at the park and an impromptu photo session.

We had a beautiful back drop for some pictures with Mommy. Thanks Sara for taking some really great photos!







Dishwasher Helper

Gracyn is learning every day and her latest skill is climbing into & onto everything. From her rocking chair, to her chair & table in her room, into her toy baskets and even the dishwasher.

Bella is always close by at snack time!


She is a very willing little helper.

13 Months

Gracyn you are 13 months old.

Today at Children's Cottage you move up to the toddler room! We're very anxious about this move, because it will cause a lot of changes to your normal routine. First you will only take one nap. All Day! Second you will eat lunch with your classmates at a table together. I can only imagine how this works! And third, you will take a nap, on a cot. No crib. I'm really curious to see how this turns out! Your teacher's name is Miss Jess and she seems very nice. It's sad to see you move-on, this is a big step I feel like, but I know that they only thing you will being doing for a long time to come is growing. And, although I don't have a baby anymore, you're still my baby, so I'm allowed have a bittersweet moment!

Here's what you're up to these days:
Clothes: 12m / 6-12m
Diapers: Size 4
Naps: Just one! From noon-ish-3pm
Eating: Breakfast, lunch & dinner, plus 2 snacks. And man, for a tiny little gal you can eat!
Right now you enjoy breakfast with daddy and he makes you a waffle or cheese toast and you eat 1/2 a banana. You like cheese-its, nilla wafers, puffs and yogurt melts for snack. Dinner is usually chicken, pork or beef. You still love corn, peas, carrots, green beans and asparagus. You loved sweet potato at Thanksgiving too.

Words: Mama, Dada, oog (Dog)
**I'm really hoping for some growth in this area!

Favorite books: Peter Rabbit lift-the-flap; Moo, Baa, La, La, La; anything with a flap to turn or texture
