The Adventures of Sabrina and Gracie

It's been a long time since I wrote about the adventures of Sabrina and Gracie. Gracie LOVES Sabrina. Most of the time, Sabrina loves her back, but occassionally she leaves the room when Gracie enters. Thankfully, Gracie doesn't understand what is happening when she does that! This morning I mentioned that Sabrina needed her hair brushed. A few minutes later, here's what happened.....
After I took this video, Sabrina rammed over Gracie, knocking her to the floor. Gracie just laughed and laughed and laughed! I think they are going to be good friends!

Pretend Play--Snack Time!

Gracie has begun pretend play! She loves to get a cup or bowl out of her drawer in the kitchen and pinch "snacks" out of it. She will "eat" them or give them to me or Clay to eat. Sorry the video isn't too good--I was trying to get in on the snack action!

Bloggy Catch-Up

Gracie has taken off walking. It only took her a couple of days to shed crawling, and walk full time! She has been walking for around 3 weeks, I think. The other day we went to the grocery store around 4:00 and Gracie hadn't eaten a big lunch that day. I immediately bought her an apple for her to munch on during the shopping trip. I didn't hear a peep out of her the entire trip, and when we got home, she kept munching while I brought in the groceries!
She ate quite a lot! My only mistake was forgetting a bib--next time I'll even buy one while I'm there if I have to!
Gracie is so proficient at walking that she can walk and drink at the same time. Notice how she only has one shoe on. She loves to go in her shoe basket and bring us a show to put on her foot. We have started to wonder if it's bad for her to go around with one shoe on, so today I told her "go get the other shoe" and she went back to her room and brought back the match! Such a smartie :)
My favorite time of day is getting Gracie up after her nap. She loves to play in her crib.
Doesn't she look so old here?!?!?! My cutie is growing up!
Yesterday Clay worked in the yard, clearing away some branches and cutting down a small tree in the yard.
Timber!
That's my hubby, a hard-workin' man!

Our sweetie.
