four, five, and six

Where do I begin? I have so much to catch up on! Gracie has been growing like a weed and I am trying to keep up. Here she is at around 4 months old! Rocking the Buckeye wear.

Gracie at 5 months old...


Baptismal day with big sister and cousin Ryan
All three of my girls have worn this gown for Baptism...I hope some day, one of their girls can wear it.

Here she is sitting up like a big girl!



We went to the doctor today for her 6 month well baby check up. She is weighing in at 15 pounds and 9 oz. which puts her at the 43rd percentile and she is 26 inches long which places her in the 61st percentile.
Gracelyn is a bundle of joy! But she can be quite the drama queen at times....only happy when she is held by someone who is standing up....YES you have to stand up or else she will cry. Spoiled.. She does not sleep through the night yet....maybe one day....I can only hope! She refuses to eat solids! FLAT OUT REFUSES! She closes her mouth tight and swats at the spoon and makes a big mess everywhere. She just started sitting up on her own for a couple of weeks now...getting ready to make that move to start crawling. Not sure if I am ready for that yet. We are still nursing which we are both loving. Her nickname is Gracie Poo.
These past few months have been uneventful....except maybe for the day she fell off the changing table! That was a little scary.....but she was fine...just cried it out for a few minutes....no brain damage!
Life around here has been pretty hectic....cant seem to catch up with housework and organization which is making me grouchy. As long as I can keep up with pictures, I think I might be able to survive this time in my life with 2 kids in diapers and 2 kids in grade school...
we shall see.
Happy half year Gracie Poo!
