Gracie came to stay with us!!!!!!!

So my best friend Julianne was admitted into the hospital 3 weeks ago because her placenta is slowly ripping off and she was only 24 weeks along!!! She is hanging in there but you can just imagine all the stress she must be under!! We are just hoping that little miss Layla can hang in there a few more weeks!!

We were lucky to have her other little girl, Gracie, come up and stay with us!! She is so smart and sweet and is just a blast to have around!! She amazes me at how smart this girl is, so just turned 2 a couple of days ago and she has known her ABC's for a while, what a smartie :) Anyways, we have been having lots of fun while she has been with us we are sad that she has to leave us but I bet she is so excited to see her daddy :) Speaking of daddy...can you imagine what he must be going through too?? I has got to be mamma and daddy and we all know how hard each of those responsibilities are but to combine them.....WOW!!! Praying for this sweet family!!

So in these pictures we made smoothies, which Gracie loved!! We also played on the playground for only about 3 or 4 hours...lol ;) We also colored Princess shirts and we were of course watching Beauty and the Beast while we colored!! And we also had a blast playing with play-dough, but those pics are coming later! We went on a scavenger hunt outside and we found lots of fun things, you should have seen the girls...they had their magnifying glass looking at everything, it was a lot of fun and you could tell the girls really enjoyed it. I was bummed cause i forgot my camera on our walk but I have great pictures in my head :)

Over all, I think we had a pretty great time and I hope that Gracie will want to come back and see us soon!! Thanks for coming sweetie and you will be one missed little girl around here ;) Love you Gracie!!!!!!!

Jaker Boy was trying to eat the wood chips and Gracie would come over and save the day :)

Ava showing off what she can do!!

This was really funny in person....they played this little game...Gracie would talk to Jake and Jake would take out her binki and then put it back and that repeated over and over and over again!! Again...really funny in person!!

Good thing Michael was at clinic with the car or we would have had one noisy parking lot ;)

They were such good little buddies!!! Makayla has found a new friend...we will add her to the other 2...lol!!! If you know Makayla, you will know what I am talking about..hehe :)

I wanted one picture with this sweet girl but she wanted to go and play...can ya tell ;)

She LOVED our smoothie we made!! She drank it all gone...that a girl :)

She was calling Jaker over with this stick like he was a puppy, haha!! And yes...Jaker totally fell for it,he crawled to her every time :)
