Her new favorite thing to do is...

SING!
She's a little distracted with Mickey Mouse on TV and her breakfast. It's so fun to leave words off songs and have her fill them in. I had no idea she even new some of the songs I sing her until we started playing this game. She's getting pretty good with her ABC's and counting to 10. We're working on Christmas songs so she can be ready for the holidays.

What a great weekend!

20 weeks

I really don't like posting pictures of myself pregnant so this might be the only one you get. I've had many requests of my growing belly. I figured since I'm half way there I'd let you all see. This time it has gone by much faster than when I was pregnant with Gracie. I can't help but think since I'm half way there I'm going to be getting twice as big. Poor Gracie... my stomach already gets in her way when she sits on my lap to read books. This pregnancy has been really easy and I'm really enjoying it.

Martino Mouse

We all dressed up as Mickey and Minnie Mouse thanks to Gracie's love for Mickey. My sister gave Gracie this cute costume that she found at a yard sale for .50 cents (thanks Jen) and we took off from there. We had a great day. We went to music makers, a friends Halloween party, the ward party, and trick-or-treating in our neighborhood after. Gracie loved all the costumes (especially hers and Ben's). She even thought Ben was really Mickey when he first came out all dressed up. By the end of the night she got really good at trick-or-treating, and understood it meant candy in her bag. She would first knock, say "treat", was very polite and said "thank you", but only after saying "more". We had a fun Halloween!!!
