Deja Vu

I feel like I've just wrote about Grace being 21 months old
yesterday. And now I'm already writing about her being 22
months old! This month went by way too fast. And October
is going to be gone sooner than I want it to be. I mean it's
already the tenth! Crazy! And I still haven't finalized
anything for her birthday yet! Yikes! I feel very behind right
now. I will hopefully have everything planned out soon,
very soon!

Some very exciting news that I've been wanting to share
with everyone is that Grace went and used the potty all
on her very own for the first time on Friday! I was absolutely
ecstatic! For those of you that read this and aren't parents,
well you'll eventually understand the excitement. Haha!
I was about to start her bath water, but then remembered
that I needed to get her pajamas out first. I went to shut the
bathroom door and she just started banging on the door saying....
no more like yelling "potty, potty!" So I let her go in and she
ripped that diaper off, sat down on her little potty, and then the
music started playing after a few seconds! I was and am so happy
that she is starting to tell us when she has to go potty!

She loves, loves, loves to read! Here lately she sits in her room
forever at a time, and I will find her in her rocking chair with
a ton of books crowding her in the chair.

Bottom line is that she is such an amazing little girl, and
I cannot get over how much she has grown! And how much
she has learned so quickly!
Yesterday morning she decided to cuddle up with her blanket
and pillow to read her new collection of books!

Such an organized little girl!

Slow down Grace! Mommy feels like you should still be
a little baby small enough to cradle in her arms.

But now you're big enough to crawl all over me
when you feel like being silly!

Mommy and daddy love you oh so much and we can't
wait to see what the future has in store for all three of us!
