I LOVE my little art desk from Gigi and Big Daddy.

December Days

One our new favorite games is to get in Mommy's kitchen cabinet. We do lots of play eating and cooking. Today we played there for at least 30 min with no fussing or whining at each other!

Christmas conversations

Last night while Mommy and Daddy were putting Gracie and me to bed we were talking about the Christmas story. We had just seen a Christmas pageant at church so we were discussing all the characters and what they did. My friend Mia was an angel and Daddy was telling me that there were many angels who were there as part of the heavenly host. I was a little confused and asked "there were Minnie angels?" (looking at my Minnie mouse next to me). Daddy tried again, and I said "oh Manny and the tools angels?" (as in Handy Manny). Finally Daddy said " there were a lot". Now that I understand.

Happy Thanksgiving!

As the holiday approaches, I wanted to share how to open your mouth as wide as possible to make sure there are no missed little morsels of food.

Why Try???

I have NO idea why mommy kept trying to take pictures of Gracie and Me today. She kept saying "SMILE!!!", "Say Cheese!", "Look at me!", "put your hand down", "sit closer to Gracie", "try and say cheese at the same time Gracie does!!".... Gracie and I were very sweet, and kept saying "cheese!". It was just hard to say it at the same time. I have a very bad feeling Mommy did not get what she was looking for and this is going to be repeated.

Gracie 15 months

22.9lbs, 32 in

Gracie and her baby

Gracie's favorite toy right now is her baby. She is such a good little mommy. This video is sort of long, but Mommy doesn't know how to edit videos. Sorry.

Trick or Treat!

This year Gracie and I were Georgia cheerleaders for Halloween.

Daddy was proud of his little cheerleaders.

Me and my friend Emily getting ready to stock up on some candy.

Gracie got to ride along. No candy for her this year, but I have a feeling next year she will beat me to every house.

Also this morning my friend Mia came over to play. We all played together so sweetly. Mommy took this picture of us, and thinks that Mia looks like she could be our sister. I agree.

The Taylor Family goes Camping

This weekend, our family went camping. On the way I was pretty excited. We had long, rainy, night so Mommy didn't take any pictures of that. We went with the Bryant family since they know how to do this camping thing, and were willing to share all their stuff with us.
The next morning things were looking up. The rain was gone, we built a fire and got the campsite all set up. When I say "we" I mean Miss Anna Mr Will and Daddy.
This is me and Georgia Ann. We had a great time playing together.
Mommy, and Miss Anna lived together at UGA, so they had a great time getting to spend some time together.
Here we are roasting marshmallows for smores. I was not a big fan of the smoke.
Over all our family had a great time. A big Thank you to the Bryant's for letting us come with you!
When we got home Mommy asked me if I had fun, and wanted to go camping again. I told her "yes, but inside next time".

Growing Gracie

At 14 months Gracie is 31 in and 22lbs 3oz. Mommy just likes me to put this on here for her records.

Why do we even have toys?

Well, but...

Mommy never told Gracie and me not to stand on the toy box and play with the blinds.

Burts

We went to Burt's Pumpkin Patch on Saturday.

How the story goes...

Mommy was trying to get a picture of us on Saturday, but Gracie was not really in the mood.
I helped her down the front step...
She headed straight for the flower bed. Mommy kept telling her "no no, stay on the walkway". She had her own ideas, and fell on the little brick edgers.
This is the boo boo she got. It was all very sad.

Puppies

Today Gracie and I got to go and see Lady's puppies. Lady is my Big Daddy and Gigi's dog.
I was very sweet and quite. Gracie tried to be;) Gracie just kept trying to say "woof woof" to the puppies.
My favorite was the girl puppy Casey.

Elmo Live!

Friday night Mommy, Daddy, and me went to see Elmo live! Thank you to Uncle Alex for the tickets!
It wasn't too crowded so I got to stand up, move around and dance all I wanted.
After the show we made a stop for the "Hot Now" sign. Yumm....
Also, a big thank you to Mimi and Pop for taking care of Gracie so I could have a special night by my self with Mommy and Daddy.

Back from the beach

Here is me and my Pop at the beach last week. It was mine and Gracie's first time to visit the beach. We had a wonderful time. I have a feeling that this week back at home is going to seem pretty dull and boring after spending our days playing in the sand and at the pool. I'll post a few more pics for the week below.
