What a Beautiful Girl!



We have Gracie!! She is beautiful and precious and wonderful! When she first laid eyes on us she screamed bloody murder! But after about 5 minutes the screaming had turned into keening. Very different from Lily as Gracie is old enough to actually be mourning her loss. But today she was up to all sorts of adventures, from riding in the stroller to shopping to eating strawberry ice cream. She has a wonderful appetite and will try most anything. She still isn't used to the concept of seconds! She took a three-hour nap and had two BM's, so she's right on track. Gracie is doing very well with the potty, only one accident and that was because we didn't pick up on the signals.
We are in the business office at the White Swan and will attempt to get some pictures for you. We are all well and happy and loving our new family!! Lily is feeling much better and is a great Jie Jie.

I LOVE the picture of Lily and Gracie - it is so cute. Remember when Hannah had the same 'haircut' when she was 3? =)
Can't wait for the 17th!

Cindy and girls

By the way, Sheila - try a 50:50 mix of Peroxide and water and swab on her gums with a q-tip - a couple of times a day would be good if she will let you.

She looks wonderful! Can't wait to see her and hope she is ready for the craziness of this family - course she is getting some initiation with all of you (lol)

Tell Lily I am reading her blog, but am unable to post a comment, for some reason it won't work for me on hers. But I am enjoying her stories

First GU game tonight so you should all be saying "Go Zags" along with Gracie

Talk to you soon
