Your brother and sister already adore you.
Your mom and dad wished and hoped for you.
We all anxiously await your arrival and wonder who you will look like.
I'm going to treasure the last few weeks of just you and me.

funnies
From the girl: "I sing just like the girl on this song." Referring to her favorite Taylor Swift song. Telling her friend, Camryn. Although, in her opinion, Camryn did not sound like the girl.
"Mom, I'm afraid the fever is coming back." The fever being her sickness from the last two days. Poor girl was so sick. Mid-puking, "Mom, make it stop. It's yucky. Please! I don't like it!"
"Mom, I want some of your yummy lotion." Victoria's Secret lotion of course.
From the country boy: "Oday, I will watch the owympics wit you after I watch my horsey movie."
He runs around shooting guns all.day.long.
"If you don't let me ______ then I won't may-ee (marry) you." This one works a little better on Gracie than me. Or "If you don't let me ______ then I won't be your mommy." funny boy. And the newest, "If you don't let me _____ then I won't let you make my hair spiky." And he tells Coleton he won't be his best buddy.

My Gracie Girl is 5
Be nice to others. = But don't forget to stand up for what you believe in.
Changing your clothes all day long is not acceptable. = If you like your outfit that's all that's important, not what others think.
Love your brother. = And make up easily when you fight.
Use your manners. = But sing a lot and giggle a lot.
Obey the rules. = But still strive to be yourself.
Be kind to others. = And it's ok to ask someone to be your friend.
Eat healthy foods. = But still enjoy chocolate.
Life is busy. = Take time to snuggle.
Clean up your messes. = Creativity is messy.
Try new things. = Be brave.
Daddy loves you. = It only takes a smile and a kiss to get your way with Daddy.
Gracie is so excited to be 5 today! She has picked her birthday dinner - corn, baked beans, sweet bread, and crab wontons. (we may need to add a protein in there) She's thrilled because I made her homemade brownies for her birthday. I can't wait to see her blow out 5 candles!
I love you Gracie. So much. I look into your eyes and see so much honesty, hope, and love. I'm lucky to be your mom. You are my little friend all day long.

Almost 5!
Technically, Gracie isn't 5 until tomorrow. I just had to blog today because I cannot believe it! She is, of course, so excited, but I'm a little sad. She loves getting older and learning new things. Today she told me that 2 plus 2 plus 1 is 5. (she's a little into the number 5...) Tomorrow she gets to dress up for preschool (it's sports day) and bring brownies for treats. The girl loves brownies!
We signed Gracie up for basketball last night at the GVR recreation center. We just happened to be in the gym when practice started and they had one open spot on the team. Gracie was in her black boots with heels, but jumped right in! Ryker would love to join in, but isn't old enough. He said, "Mommy, I too little to play?" He gets to play on the sideslines, though, so I think it will be fun for him too.
