~Gracie's Big Day~


My mom had taken Gracie to church with her so as soon as she got home I spent a few minutes with her then laid her down for a nap. As she was sleeping I was getting a shower and getting my self ready. Ryan wanted me to make something to eat so I thought that I would make fettuccine alfredo with shrimp and mushrooms, and oh my it was to die for. So I got Gracie and I all ready then went to pick Ryan up and headed to the store to buy some noodles and alfredo sauce. We got back to Ryan’s house and as I started to make a brunch Ryan fully volunteered to watch Gracie so I could cook.
It felt like I was in a soup kitchen, it was scorching hot and I had mad enough noodles for an army. Finally I was done making the fettuccine alfredo and mixed veggies. Ryan had to soon go to work. About a half an hour went by and Gracie and I decided to go down to the pizza shop. It was horribly busy, but I could not do anything to help because I had Gracie with me. Gracie and I just hung out in the lobby, as Gracie greeted everyone that entered the door. We were finally done waiting for Ryan. All of us went back to the house and watched a movie Heart Break Kid, which was hilarious. Gracie started to get grumpy because she was tired. She had worn us out with all the running. After the movie was over Gracie and I went home and had a good night sleep.

Guest Post -- I Hate You




Since I don’t have a daughter, I will talk about a situation that happened this Monday with my little sister. Well it all actually began on Sunday; our neighbors just moved into their new house this last week that they built. And know they don’t live next to our house; which my little sister misses because they have a daughter my sister’s age. The neighbor’s daughter, Vanessa, would come over every morning to our house to have breakfast with Ilona my little sister, or the other way around. Since they can’t have breakfast with each other know, they wanted to have a sleep over at Vanessa’s new house. They had to sleep over from Sunday to Monday, but on Sunday they were all day outside playing.

By the time she got home on Monday after noon she was already sick, her eyes were watering, and she had a little fewer. When I got into my car after the late English class, I received a call from home. It was my little sister telling me that she wanted me to come home, and go buy her some purple medicine (Triaminic, grape flavor) that she likes so much. I told her that I will buy it later, because I was going to the gym to workout. After working out for two hours, I went to the store and got the Triaminic. When I got home she was already asleep, so I was too late. The next morning when I was getting ready for school she come into my room, and simply said “I hate you, you didn’t bring me good medicine.”

I found out later, that since I didn’t bring her grape flavor my dad made her take a different flavor that he got. He told her that there no difference between them, but Ilona dint believe him. So later that day after school, I went to mall and got her a get well teddy bear. And that was the end of that.

~Ryan and Gracie~


So Gracie went to a new baby sitters today. His name is Ryan. Yes a guy, believe it or not. He is my boyfriend and offered to watch her so I took him up on it. Plus he only lives two houses down from where I work so it is not very far if he needed me. Ryan did very well, and now Gracie loves him. It is a win win situation. I stopped by after a delivery unexpectedly and saw them sitting on the couch with Ryan reading her a book. It was so cute they were all cuddled up in the blankets reading books, and watching the television. I asked if they were okay, then I left and went back to work. Ryan said that they were just fine.

I knew that Ryan would more than likely be all right because he has a little brother. But, I also knew once that poppy diaper came along that would be the challenge. So I got off work 9:45pm or so and when I was pulling out of the parking lot, I saw Ryan and little pink ball, which that was Gracie in her snow suit. He got her all bundled up just for me to change her diaper. It was defiantly cute. The first thing that I said to him was “does she have a poppy diaper”? He replied “yes”. For some reason I knew it he said he thought that he could handle it, until he got some of that nice, smelling goodness on his finger. That was very funny, not just for him to say, but for any guy. All I can really say is that at least he tried, that is a lot more than most. So needless to say he did very well, and I am so proud!

*Gracie and I adventure outside*


Gracie and I went outside, because the weather it not that bad outside. I got her all dressed in her outside clothes; we went outside and let my dog Zug out. That was a little crazy because Zug is crazy and Gracie is scared of him. We went to the felid behind our house and ran and played. Gracie and I were slipping in the mud, getting dirty and just having fun. Gracie was analyzing everything that she could. Like the trees, leaves, and dead flowers from the year before. She yells Zug no because he is running all around us.

After we are all done getting as dirty as possible we decide to go inside before we get too cold. We go inside strip off our clothes and do a load of laundry and get into the bath. We get all squeaky clean. Gracie then says I am hungry mommy so I make us some ravioli and garlic bread, just something quick, because children can not wait that long when they are hungry. Gracie and I eat then I think maybe ravioli wasn’t a good idea because Gracie just got that all over herself so I get her back into the bath, and get dressed again. Well after all of that Gracie is a little tired so I gather ready for a nap and lay her in bed. After Gracie falls asleep I finally get a minute or two to sit down call a friend or do some homework. Yeah isn’t that the way to spend your free time or you know cleaning the house too is always an option.
