A Monday with Frosty the Snowman

Gracie had a restless night. A couple of times she just sat up in bed and leaned against the wall in sort of a stupor, stayed there for a few minutes before laying back down and going to sleep. Gracie awoke in a happy mood. We had to take the van in for an oil change so we dropped that off and both Jeff and I dropped her off at daycare.

I mentioned Gracie's love of Frosty the Snowman. It gets better, we pulled up to daycare this morning and they have a big blow up Santa and Frosty the Snowman on the front lawn. Gracie was so excited to see Frosty. Grins from ear to ear. Then we went inside to see the beautiful Christmas tree with beautiful white lights. Gracie loved it.

Gracie had a good day at daycare and made Thanksgiving finger puppets for her activity. They are fun..I'm thinking I should probably share and let her play with them too! :)

Gracie had physical therapy late this afternoon. Sandy worked on stretching her back and neck muscles. She wasn't thrilled about this. I also had Sandy look at Gracie's braces. We're seeing too much redness again. We're going to see if we can get them stretched out.

After physical therapy, we hopped back in the car to go get dad at work and drop him off to get the van. Gracie was in the best mood. We sang Christmas carols the whole time and she was dancing away. When we got home we took a walk a couple of houses down the street to see the light up Frosty. I wish you all could see her eyes light up.

Gracie ate a big supper and after she was done, she sat on my lap and ate off my plate using a big fork. She did quite well with it. Then it was bath time and then bed. She's quite restless tonight in her sleep though. Hopefully it will be sweet dreams for her tonight.

Love to you all,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
