This & That

A little more of December happenings...Gracyn lost her tooth at school and got a tooth necklace to put it in. You'd have thought she won the lottery--she was SO excited!! It's the little things, folks!

She was SO worried that the Tooth Fairy might take her necklace by mistaking it as a real tooth. I tried to convince her that she wouldn't, but she wasn't taking any chances--she hid it so the Tooth Fairy wouldn't find it! Ha! When I went in to check on her before I went to bed, she had her pillow clutched in her hand. Sweet baby girl!

We went for a Saturday morning family run, and Gracyn decided to climb this tree instead of playing on the playground. I thought she looked so cute up there.

This little guy needed some persuasion to climb up--he's not a big fan of heights.

Gracyn learned some Christmas dances and got to perform for us. Here she is with her good friend, Alexia.

You may be wondering why she's missing her shoes...I forgot to pack her dance backpack. I had a feeling like I was missing something, but I couldn't pinpoint it--but I did remember snacks and water bottles for the kids, library books to return, dance leotard, skirt, tights, bow, and shoes to wear to dance, and the ipad....so in the grand scheme of things, I remembered quite a bit. Only forgot one of the most important things! She was SO gracious and just said, " That's ok Mommy, these things happen." Love this sweet girl!

I got to spend the evening with these two precious friends. (We were out until midnight just chatting away! Looked at my watch and it was 9:30--and when I checked again it was 11:45!!) Love these two and treasure their friendships!
