Spagoogle

Grace has become an acrobat!


Grace holding her head high! She has been doing this for a long time now!


First day in her Sassy Seat!







How we love our little Spagoogle! Marc came up with that name and we have been calling her that non-stop now. Today we placed her in a sassy seat. Her great grandma Cunningham got that for her. She loves it! Earlier today we watched Robin Hood the Disney movie. That movie is one of Marc's favorites. Grace seems to really like it too! Grace always puts a smile on our face! She is an absolute joy! We love our Spagoogle!

Love My Husband


As if it is any surprise.....how much I love my husband. He is such a wonderful man! He is the best daddy also! He always puts Grace first during his daily activities...even when he has had a sore lower back. I have noticed that as much as I love him already...every day my love for him grows even stronger! Thank you God for this wonderful man! I am grateful that God chose this little country girl to be with this great guy. The love that you have for your spouse increases even more when you have a child. Thank you God for all of the blessings that you have given us! We are so grateful!

Easter Candy


Let me tell you...and you probably already now this...but the best time to get holiday candy is the day after the holiday. I stopped by Wal-greens on the way home from my lunch break. Much to my surprise all Easter candy is marked 50% off. So I manage to find some that we like and proceed to the checkout line. When I get there the attendant says to me that those candies are $1.00. I look at her and ask, "These candies?" She says yes! I then walk back to the Easter aisle and grab some more. How can we pass up on such a good deal! So I end up paying about $20...but look at how much I got for it. (See the picture.) By the way the M & M's were the large bags (12 ounces). That's right...jackpot! Don't worry...we are going to be stashing a lot of it in the freezer. Our freezer will soon contain M & M's and breast milk. So we have our basics in this family. If only we had a bigger freezer. :) We will eventually! Got to love those deals!

Easter Sunday

Mommy and Grace...playing with Grace's new friend!


Our Family...Grace wanted to get the dress off!

Daddy and Grace...such a cute picture! I love you guys so much!


Mommy and Grace...my precious baby girl!




Grace and her bunny!



I would just like to start off by saying how much we love our Blessed Saviour...Our Dear Lord Jesus Christ! Thank you Jesus for suffering for our sake so that we may have a chance of everlasting life! Today we remember how you have been resurrected...Our Saviour Lives! We celebrated Easter here in Abilene this year. It was in the lower 70's today and very windy. It was Grace's first Easter today! We gave Grace her first bunny...and she happens to love her new friend. We went to church this morning and it was very busy. We had to leave the cry room and change Grace twice today. Maybe I should not eat that much broccoli from now on Grace...sorry honey. Grace wore a beautiful pink and frilly dress today. Several people pointed at her and smiled in delight! We grabbed some jelly beans and peanut butter cups on the way home. We had to have a little sweet! We are going tomorrow to check out the after Easter candy sells. We listened to bible songs all afternoon...Daddy cleaning the kitchen...Mommy taking pictures...and baby Grace playing and laughing at her play station. It was a beautiful day! We are so thankful for all of our blessings! We would like to send out all of our love to our families...we miss everyone...and hope that you had a joyous Easter Sunday!

Grace has been very playful and energetic! She loves her floor playstation. She grasps the toys and laughs in delight. She is even holding her head up longer while she is on her tummy. We are amazed by what she has accomplished in just these last few days. She is such a happy baby! We are so thankful for her! She is such joy! We love you squeaker!

My baby girl is 3 months now. She is such a joy! Fulton, you have a new best friend now. Grace loves the Cars movie. She bounces, laughs, and talks loudly when she hears and watches the movie. It is so funny to see how she is exploring the world around her. She turns onto her side and can rotate her whole body 360 degrees. The only thing that keeps her from rolling is her head. I am guessing because they told us at her last doctor's appt that her head measured in the 90th percentile. Yes...her head is big...but you know what that means...big brains! And judging by the milestones that she has already made at just 3 months, I am not surprised. She is very bright! We love her soo much!
