Go Horns!!!

Gracie loves the Longhorns! Her Daddy is starting her on Longhorn football very early. For Gracie's Birthday Auntie Katie gave Gracie a Longhorn cheerleader outfit. Gracie loves to wear it! We let her wear it all day long last Saturday when Texas beat Tech. Her daddy loves it too. Gracie would point to the Longhorn on Daddy's shirt and then point to the Longhorn on her dress. Grandad flew in and picked Tyler up for the game so Gracie got to show him her outfit too. We don't know who was more proud of her outfit, Daddy or Grandad. Gracie is really into planes right now so she had fun watching the planes go down the runway. We live about 10 minutes from Love field so airplanes are flying over our house occasionally. Every time a plane flies over she points to her ear and says "plane". It is so funny!

Gracie's New Favorites

Gracie has three favorite things these days. Babies, Books and her sunglasses. Her baby has to go with her everywhere she goes including car trips. She loves playing "Mommy"! She puts the babies on the floor face down, rubs their backs and says shhh. Then she lays in between them and goes "night night" herself. It is sooo funny. The other day when Kay Kay was here we were sewing her new bedding in the kitchen and we looked up and she had the baby in her lap and was "reading" to it. I was shocked because I have never showed her this before. I better watch out because she is copying my every move. Whenever we go out in public and there is a baby there she runs over and tries to pick it up. She is going to be a great big sis! She loves to go in her room and read all her books. She is very into animals and the sounds they make so of course animal books are her favorite. The past few days she walks around our house with her sunglasses on. She watches TV with them, plays tag with Bella with them on, and even ate dinner with them on tonight. She is too funny. We are having so much fun with her!

Deep Thoughts With Grandad

We spent the Labor Day Weekend at PK. Gracie loved watching the boats go by with Grandad. We laughed because he would tell her something and she would get really still and just look out over the lake. We had a relaxing weekend!


Gracie's New Teacher

Gracie has moved up 2 classes at her school for the new school year. She loves her new teachers and all the art projects they do every day. We hang them on the fridge and she loves to show everyone that comes over. Painting is her favorite! She has the same music teacher whose son is in Gracie's class and is starting to pick up on the hand motions. I was afraid twice a week was too much, but she loves it and I know I will need the extra time once Caroline is here. I had to take a quick picture on the first day because all the new kids were crying (Gracie wouldn't look at the camera...oh well).

Fun with Daddy!

Daddy watched me the other day when Mommy went to Junior League. We had so much fun! We put on our crowns and went on a walk. I turned around every minute to make sure Daddy had is on the entire way. We walked around the whole neighborhood. Then we came home and had a "Tea Party" Daddy style. We got my picnic set out and made chicken. He even put real water in my cups and I was so excited. I have the best Daddy in the world!
