Happy New Year! We spent New Year's Eve celebrating Jeff's birthday quietly at home. We did make a trip to the clinic to have Gracie's skin checked out. Her hives turned into a weird rash of bumps. We wanted to make sure it wasn't strep or some other contagious disease. Seems her body reacted weirdly to her cold virus...first with hives and then with Papular Acrodermatitis of Childhood. She wasn't contagious, just itchy. I'm happy to say they are finally healing and she isn't itching anymore.
Gracie loved helping Jeff blow out the birthday candles on his cake. He left two candles burning on his cake and told Gracie they were for his girlfriends. Then he asked her if she knew who they were and she replied "Gracie and Momma". Good girl!!!!
We were all in bed before midnight!
On New Years Day we went to hang out with Aunt Sheila, Uncle Chris, and cousins Kayla and Jason. Gracie was in a great mood and we all had a good time. Sheila baked a cake for Jeff and when the candles were blown out, once again there were two left. I'm pretty sure I heard Gracie say they were for "girlfriends"!
Yesterday we just hung out at home and had a lazy day. I think we all were happy to just be inside and out of the cold. Gracie was daddy's girl big time. She was pretty much attached to his hip. Every once in a while she would come sit on my lap. She's so funny because mealtime and bedtime she is mamma's girl...otherwise it is pretty much daddy's girl.
This morning Gracie did not want to wake up. She's been used to sleeping in. I was afraid I was going to have to take her to daycare in a sound slumber. She finally woke up and was in a very good mood. I'm not sure she was ready for daycare or school to start back up, but she did have a big hug for Ms. Alyssa!
Wishing you (and us) a healthy, happy 2012.
Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
