I can't believe how much she has changed!

I went back today through all the Halloween pictures and couldn't believe how Gracen has changed.  So, I put all of them together and wanted to share them with you guys.

Carving Jack...

We had fun carving our friendly Jack this year.  I believe Gracen enjoys the goo the most. What do you think?

What a cute bat!



It has been a while and as you know we have been crazy busy and all mixed up around here.  We did take some time last week to enjoy Halloween, our favorite holiday.  Gracen and I spent the week before Halloween at Disney for the Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party and we got home just in time to go Trick or Treating on Sunday.  So, here are a few shots from our spooky night.  Hope you all had a SPOOKTACULAR weekend!
  


 Gracen was very concerned that everyone would think she was a boy bat instead of a girl bat, so we added a bow to make sure that no one would get confused. =)

Good morning tooth fairy...

Just wanted to share the pictures of what the tooth fairy brought this morning for Gracen's first tooth. Wow, I don't think that the tooth fairy has been effected by the recession yet. The tooth business must be a good one.

Also, I wanted to show you an adorable picture that Anna drew for Gracen yesterday after the big event. It was so sweet of her and the details are amazing. She even drew the little canisters that sit on Gracen bathroom vanity and her pink toothbrush. My favorite part is the tooth with pigtails. That is so Gracen! You will have to click on that picture to see it better. The bottom corner is a drawing of Gracen looking in the mirror in her bathroom. Thanks Anna, you are so talented and smart!

Finally... our first tooth came out!

As Gracen was doing her homework today after school, I hear "Mommy, Mommy, my tooth came out!" I was so excited because this first tooth has caused quite the drama around our house lately. Even last night as it was just hanging there and I do mean hanging, she still did not want it to come out. I was so scared that she would swallow it in her sleep and luckily it was still there this morning. I really expected to get a phone call from school today, but that didn't happen. She had been home 25 minutes when all of a sudden it was out and I was so happy that I got to be a part of it. I can't believe my baby is old enough to loose her tooth. Didn't she just get them?

Crusin...Wish I were there now!

In the hustle and bustle of back to school and Jamie being gone, I sometimes wish that we were still just crusin' in the Caribbean. Back in May we were able to take a family vacation to the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos. It was Gracen's first cruise and she loved it! She loved kids camp the best and that really worked out well for all of us. She was happy and it gave Jamie and I some much need rest and relaxation.
