Gracie is 21 months old!

Goll time FLIES doesn't it? and in the blink of an eye it's 2017!!!
Gracie is almost 2- i can't believe it.
she is SUCH a crackup. If I could describe her in 1 word it would be- hilarious. She knows that she's a jokester and she totally knows how to get me to laugh. i LOVE her for that.

the past few months Gracie's vocabulary has BOOMED!! some of her daily sayings are:
"bless you mamma"
"hi starsky!"
"where'd dad-da go?"
"light it please?"
"ewwwww stinky bottoms"
"itsy bitsy spider..."
"I see you!"
"no-no starsky"
"no, no, stop it."
"oh my!"
"oh my goodness"
"oh my gooooossssshhh!"

I'm sure there's more too.

*She's so smart. everywhere we go people comment on how smart she is.
*She's still got 12 teeth- working on those canines though!
*she's very independent

and as always here's some of my favorite pics of the last month with my Gracie!























































This age is a challenge for me as her mom- but it's also SO FUN all at the same time. She's miss independent and doesn't like to be told what to do. so that's a challenge sometimes. BUT i really can't complain because she literally makes me laugh every single day. without fail. I told Tan the other day that God send her to me because he knew she'd make me laugh every day :) and it's so true.

She's such a goof and I think she knows it. She's also very polite and says please, thank you, and sorry.  I love her SOOOO much and can't imagine my life without her.

Gracie goo- I love you!!

Love,
Mom

We took some family pics: here's a few of our faves :)
