A Gracie Story

Well Gracie is here! She was born on July 3, 2013 and we are more in love than I ever thought possible! She is so fun and growing so fast, in fact she is 4 weeks old today! She has got some chubby cheeks! I am so thankful for her sweet spirit and the way she has blessed our lives. I cant describe the feeling of what it's like to be a mother but it's the best, most rewarding, most spiritual calling I have ever had. Secretly I love when she is crying and then she comes to me, she snuggles up and stops crying :) She is becoming so smart! She knows if she lets out a little cry someone will run to her and pick her up. Gracie is one spoiled girl! Time is flying by oh so fast and we are just trying to enjoy ever minute of it!
She weighed 6lbs and 14 ounces

This is her cute outfit to come home in!

right when we got home grandpa wanted to take a nap with her

I thought I was suppose to be the tired one?

Gracie came out sucking on her hands and was kinda mad when we put the mits on! Not a time goes by she doesn't sleep with her hands on her face, it's the only way she can fall asleep!

big yawns for mamma

they really get nothing done these days. They keep telling us we won't really leave, I think my dad started tearing up yesterday at the thought of us moving in a few weeks!

she is getting so big! She looks skinny minny in this one!

This is the first time she smiled with her eyes open!
