We want H2O

Gracie had another first....she had some water and drank a little bit. ha ha! I gave it to her in a sippy cup which she was way more interested in chewing on it then drinking from it! It totally cracked me up!

We also have started getting into the push up stance. She will will get up on her hands and instead of getting on her knees she gets on her tippy toes like she is going to do a real push up! Gracie is really trying to crawl but she just can't get that butt to go. Although you put her on her feet and hold her by her sides and she will take a couple of very wobbly steps! I said from the get go she was going to skip crawling...or at least be more interested in walking.

So it is not headline news that technology has advanced in the recent years. When Matt and I got married we had someone record it which we then put on a VHS. Well I can't even remember the last time we had a VCR plugged in so I decided to send it off to Walmart and put it on a DVD. I picked it up yesterday and decided to watch it when I got home. I started it and had to stop b/c I got sad seeing everyone. Well, Matt decided to watch it when he got home and it was great but sad to see all of our friends and family. It was especially hard seeing my grandparents and Matt's grandpa because they are no longer with us. They would enjoy spending time with Gracie so much. I know they would be so happy to have her as a great grandbaby. As a matter of fact Gracie has my grandmother's middle name. Matt and I felt it was fitting since she passed when I was 7 months pregnant. Both Matt and I miss them all terribly but we are looking forward to telling Gracie stories about them. As a matter of fact I sing her a song Grandpa used to sing to me when I was little!

Well, it is 9:00 PM and it is finally Friday so I am going to get things ready for tomorrow and head to bed! I will post some pictures this weekend!
