Gracie had a good night's sleep and awoke bright and early at 6:30 a.m. She was a good girl all morning. Jeff was giving the sermon at his church today, so I knew better than to take Gracie there. That was all I needed was to try to keep a 36 lb., strong-willed child off the stage when she wants to see her daddy. Gracie was a good girl, for the most part, during church. The rest of the morning she helped me with laundry, we played, read books, and just had a great morning.
When it came to nap time, daddy just would not do. When she awoke from nap, she crawled out of her room and Jeff went to greet her, she crawled right past him and headed to mommy. I cherish the mommy days, as she is definitely Jeff's biggest fan. It's funny how she goes to us for different things. Mommy is the snuggler, the person to go to when the TV isn't working right (she likes to change the channels and then gets mad when her show isn't on), when she is sad, tired, or just plain needs snuggling. Daddy is the fun guy who gives great piggy back rides, plays chase, and plays tag outdoors.
Gracie only took an hour nap and it showed. She was a little more moody this afternoon and when she didn't get her way, she let us know about it. We did get her out of the house for a few errands and that did her good. When we got home it had gotten cold and windy, so we got our jackets on and played outside for awhile. Gracie loved the wind. This makes me laugh, because for the first year of life she HATED the wind. She would constantly gasp when out in it. Today when a big wind gust hit her in the face, she put her face up to the sky and smiled this goofy big smile. Sort of like, bring it on!
Gracie had a rough evening. She was just too tired and she was either very happy or very unhappy. There really wasn't any middle ground. A bath did help the situation.
Gracie is now soundly sleeping, getting her rest for the busy week ahead.
Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
