Two months left..

Only two months left until our little coconut is one! (If you could see me, you would see my lower lip hanging out!) Gracie is now ten months old. Where has the time gone?

This picture was taken while she was holding on to my knees and I put the camera down in front of her. Gracie climbs on and over and up everything. She walks along the ottoman in our living room or from the sofa to the ottoman. She now crawls up the stairs, but thankfully waits at the top to be helped down. Gracie loves to bounce and tries to dance (while she's holding on to something or sitting).

She now has eight teeth and is drooling everywhere. I've been trying to put a bib on her so she doesn't soak through her shirts.



Gracie is such a sweet little girl. Her smile is contagious, laugh is infectious, and you can't help but want to cuddle her. She loves everyone, especially her big sister. When Gracie wakes up I'll set her down on the floor and she'll immediately crawl into Payton's room to look for her. She also reaches out for Payton to hold her if someone she doesn't see often is holding her. It's really cute.

We had a weight check for Gracie on the 15th and she has gained over a pound since last month!!!!!! This was very exciting news for us! She now weighs 16.9lbs. We didn't have her measured, but she is now in the 6% up from 3 1/2%. Ryan and I were very excited that she didn't drop percentiles. This is a first for her since she was born, since she had been steadily dropping percentiles. For it to go up, that was a welcomed surprise. Dr. Haugen wants us to come back again in one month, for another weight check, to make sure this continues.
