Odds & Ends

Just as promised, a funny story and a video for you all. 

Shut the door

When Matt was in the closet putting clothes away.  Gracie wanted to shut the door.  So this is how it went….

Gracie: “Shut the doyie Daddy!”

Matt:  Shut the doyie? (Matt pronounced it the same way Gracie says it…)

Gracie: NO Daddy, the DOYIE.

This went back and forth a couple of times.

Gracie: UGH, Daddy, I am done.

Matt: Done with what?

Gracie: (with her hand up in the air) Talking to you…

This is the type of stuff that we are dealing with on a daily basis.  She is really starting to play school a lot.  There is a lot of babies coming to my lap in time out due to them not using listening ears.  She is still bossy as can be.  She is trying to see how far she can take it with Mommy and Daddy.  Well, let’s face it, she is trying to test all limits.  She understands them now, so she is seeing how far she can go until she gets into major trouble.  But the bossiness really isn’t that bad, I would say she is more assertive. ha!

The soccer game was ok this week.  Gracie is scared of one of her teammates so she is just runs after everyone.  However, she did kick the ball…but stopped after two kicks to celebrate how well she did.  Here is the video, look for the little girl pulling up her shorts…..yeah that is Gracie, keep your eye on her.  You can see her kick, kick, and celebrate!

Other then that it was a quiet week.  Oh who am I kidding?  I feel like I have been run ragged.  I am so glad we are getting a new employee in a couple of weeks.  Work is kind of stressful right now.  But that is ok, it is a 3 day weekend!   We have a lot planned so that is exciting.  I promise to have tones of pictures!
