Girly Girl!

Over the past 21 months, we have certainly discovered how raising a little girl is different from raising our son. It is so exciting to see how Gracie Myers has fully embraced being a little girl, she loves all things frilly, but she can hang tough with her big brother when need be! Gracie Myers thinks that everything is the color pink whether it is or not, I guess she loves the same color her mama does!
Lately, Gracie Myers can be found in her room rummaging through her shoe basket until she finds a pair of shoes to put on all by herself. If we try to help her, she's quick to say, "I do it". She's a pretty independent little girl, that's for sure!
She loves these shoes, which are unfortunately, almost 2 sizes too small, but she still tries to cram her feet into them....too bad they were on the wrong feet!

She was super impressed with herself that she got her feet into these shoes. We are thankful for her determination, and hope that it continues to develop as she grows!

She's actually saying "teeth" which is what she likes to say when having a picture taken!


In addition to selecting and putting on her own shoes, Gracie Myers likes to put her own hair bows in by herself. This picture makes me laugh, because the bow wasn't put in securely enough and was basically just hanging on!

It is wonderful to have another child who has a love for books. She likes to sit in her "time-out" chair and read to herself.

We love you, our little girly girl!
