Way too long!

I have been a super slacker and haven't posted in the longest time. I have been in a blogging funk to say the least. As to why, I am not for sure. So to get caught up I will post some pictures from our summer vacation, a friends shower, and just some pictures of my little cutie!!!

We have been busy around here (story of my life) and have been trying to make the best of every day. We have gone swimming quite a bit and spent some time doing things indoors because it is too darn hot outside to function. I went for a walk today and lasted about ten minutes. Then I took Grace over to the playground and she had sweat dripping down her face and looked at me like "get me outta here I am melting!!!"

We are getting ready to try a new church this weekend. Nothing happened at our old church, in fact Grace will probably still go to preschool there. but we want a church that we can see ourselves at for years and has really good programs for youth.

I have been trying my best to savor each day with Grace to take it all in, like the last drops of a really good milkshake. It seems like I blink my eyes and she is another month old so I made a vow to myself that I would make each day count and even if that meant a day we were staying home to clean and do laundry that we would laugh and hug and have fun at home. Grace is getting so smart and always wants to be on the go. As soon as the wakes up in the morning she is asking to go to "Ma Ma's house". Then she gets so upset with me that we don't go. Poor girl!!! She has been such a lover lately and I am just eating that up. Anytime my little girl wants to give a hundred kisses and hugs-you better believe I'll take it!!!

I can't believe summer is coming to a close. Kinda bittersweet-It just went so fast!!! We got a lot planned with Grace this coming Fall. I have her signed up for dance class. I don't know how this will go, it could be good or really bad!! She is going to do a Kickaroo soccer program with her Daddy. Were also are thinking about going back to the Little Gym because she loved that place.

All is well with her and the babysitter. We love Ms. Judy like a family member and the feeling is mutual. I think I love her because I know she takes care of Grace like a Grandma would. Grace also has little friends over there that she enjoys very much.

Grace continues to be a Daddy's girl and that is alright with me. Anytime I can see my husband look at Grace like he does, it makes my heart melt and know all is good in the world. He is such a good Dad and Grace can sense that. They are buddies and I LOVE that!!!

So in closing I will try to be a better blogger and stay caught up. Hope you enjoy what is to come!!!
