Happy Birthday Baby!

Gracers turned the big 0-1 last Friday and pretty much fancies herself a big, independent girl now. Here are some pictures of the birthday fun.

C'mon Mom! Let's get started...

Ready to go!

How cool is that doggy rocker? I think Grace is still trying to figure out if it's real.


Grandpa Dave manning the BBQ. We barbecued some burgers.

Mikey...that's a baby doll for a baby girl!

That pen just wasn't as tasty as the cake.

The cake. It was triple layer chocolate-vanilla-chocolate with pink frosting. Mmmmm.

The baby cake.

Baby Birthday Girl

What is this? Is no one going to stop me?

Yum!

Thanks to Jeff for the fabulous photography!

It's About Time...

Not dead, just enjoying the summer and shrugging off as many responsibilities as I can without getting in too much trouble :) Here are lots of random photos from the past few weeks (sorry, I haven't been very good at photo-documenting our lives recently):

This one screams "Born To Shop!!!!" Doesn't it?

One of Grace's favorite things to do is go through my wallet and take everything out. It's really fun...not.

We went to the annual Gweaston Family Campout at the Spruces. Grace had so much fun getting pulled around in Grandma's little wagon.


Rob's sister Melanie and her husband Jeff and baby Henry were able to come up and spend some time in Utah with us. How cute are Henry and Gracie holding hands here?

Henry doesn't like to sit down, so he got to stand during the wagon ride.

Another random wildlife photo... Rob has such good eyes and spotted this teensy tiny little humming bird in her nest.

Grace playing the piano at Grandma Gwilliam's. She loved that this one made sound...we have a keyboard that I can (thankfully!) turn the sound off. She loves music and anything that has to do with making music.
