Dance Class-Round 2

Well we attempted dance class again on thurs night. As you read before, I'm unable to go in. Gracie was fine until all the other kids started crying when it was time to go in the room, then she was pulling on me and screaming. I almost didn't leave her but then as soon as the music stopped all the kids stopped crying. They said she got down and did a lot that night. The funny thing is....we have been singing "The Wheels on the bus" at home and she has been turning in circles and stuff...it is soo cute...so I asked the teacher and sure enough that is what they do. So...I get to view next week and that will give me a chance to see if I feel she is read y for it. She is soo cute in her little dance outfits!

A couple more words to add to the list....Whoa, towel, Mia(a little girl at daycare-she calls her "ia"), and the phrase "I do"...today she also said "dada go bye bye"...the talking just keeps on coming.

On another note...Im trying to figure out how to do a slideshow on here....hopefully can get it figured out soon!

18 month stats

Gracie had her dr. appt. yesterday. She is 24 lbs(40-50%) and 33 inches long(70%). She didn't get any shots, we are still waiting a little while to get the MMR-she is caught up on everything else. She is done getting teeth for awhile-yeah! When the dr. was looking in her ears, eye, etc. she kept telling him "all-done", it was soo funny. Developmentally she is doing great! She still gets a little splotchy rash sometimes and he says it is excema. We just use aquaphor a couple times of day and give her anhistimine if needed. Overall, it was a great dr. appt.-nothing much to report!

4 more words to add to the list she knows- bug, boo, look, weeeee (she does this when she is swinging or excited about something.

Words at 18 months

Gracie has started trying to say a lot of new words and I've been trying to write them all down.  She has about 40-50 words...this is what she is saying....

dada, mama, dog, cat, duck, up, out, uck, "huh". all done, up above (for twinkle, twinkle little star), bus, ball, bubble, this, that, hi, hello, bye-bye, yes, not, yeah, Dora, backpack, truck, shoes, cheese, eyes, moo, quack, foot, toes, okay, hot, baby, night-night, book, bird, off, see, fish, yum-yum, open and she says Webus, Webus for wheels on the bus....it is soo cute to hear her try to sing it!

I'm sure I'm missing some, but it is just amazing what all she has started to say.  Can you tell we are proud?!?

Story Time

We have been attending toddler storytime at the library on tues nights. They sing songs, use puppets, read books, etc. Usually Gracie runs around the room, but tonight she was much better. She clapped and sang to the songs, danced around the room, kissed the puppets, and listened to some of the stories. Hopefully she will continue to enjoy it.

Tomorrow is her 18 month appt. I can't believe she is already 18 months...where does the time go? I will post her new stats when we return.

Check out our new fall pictures. We loved our photographer. If you are ever looking for someone, she is fantastic especially with kids. You can go to:
