Wonderful fun with my girls this morning!!


So Gracie helped me make pizza the other day....and as usual, she had a blast!!! she kept picking at the dough, and eating it. Silly Goose. he he he, she is so funny. then she decided to put her hands in the big container i keep the flower in, take some out and sprinkle it on her head, and on the dog. Jordan and i couldn't help but laugh a ton. And of course she "helped" us with the cheese...aka, she ate it as she was putting it on the pizza. so cute.

This morning, after i got her dressed, while she was watching Elmo's World, i braided her hair. after i was done she looked at me and said " beautiful?"

i love her hair this length b/c i can do a few things with it. but i have to say, if i don't do anything to it she has a mullet, and it drives Aunt Rachael nuts. To make it look a better, Rachael said that she is going to cute her hair for me soon. nothing crazy, just to even it out a little. lets hope that she sits still for the scissors!!

I am not sure if it going to happen any time soon though. Rachael is soooooooooooo sick already with this pregnancy. Very nauseous, all the time. So we are praying for that a bunch....yes we..Gracie and mommy. my cutie prays by herself now!!! Before bed, nap time or nighttime, she get on her knees at the side of her bed, folds her hands together, and bows her head. When she prays, it is very muffled, and I cant understand much of it, but i know that the Lord is being praised and truly glorified in her innocence, and beautiful prayers that only he understands. Once and a while, though, you can pick up a name or 2. Lately those have been, Aunt Rachael, Hailey, and her new friend Abby from school(she goes to a friends day care 1 day a week for the fun with other kids, she LOVES it). It is such a wonderful thing, to see her worshiping the Lord. it makes you think "wow, i am teaching her some things the right way." and that childlike innocence, is such a real inspiration. it encourages my walk with the Lord to be more one of those with my "daddy".

On a different note, when Mckenzie woke up this morning she was all smiles. and Gracie couldn't stop kissing her, and telling her she loved her. so refreshing watching such pure love for her sister.


then she proceeded to hop onto the back of the coach and put BIG smudges all over the mirror that i just cleaned yesterday....but to be honest, i like them best when they have little hand prints all over them.

while i was feeding the baby, Gracie wanted to take care of her baby, so she put her in the swing, but she saw me taking a picture so she ran around to hide. she has so much energy in the morning. that is when we like to go crazy, and tickle, and sing songs the most.

well we are going to work on learning our colors now, and i have to do some cleaning b/f tomorrow. i have a sitter coming over in the afternoon an Saturday. i have a sound check/rehearsal at 4 for a concert that i am performing in on Sunday. it is downtown at the Delaware Baptist Church at 4p. i am singing with a good friend of mine, Liz, and the whole worship team, and the worship leader from our church. we are one of the opening acts before Brianna Scott, a big name in hip hop christian music, comes on. we are all looking forward to it. but it is going to be a busy weekend.
