I did it!!!!
I kept my self sane while hubby was out-o-town! I organized every room/closet/drawer we have in this house. Call me crazy, I am sure I lifted things I wasn't supposed too... Believe me, it wasn't easy bending down with a 7 1/2 month preggo belly, but I did it, and I am SO relieved that it's finished. Grace and I have baked cookies almost every day, and ate them on the floor in the kitchen the minute they came out of the oven. She is such a little buddy. We have had the time of our lives bonding while JK has been gone. We painted our toes watched Disney movies in my bed. Colored an entire coloring book. Played dress up in my jewelry. And for the first time, I let her play with my hair; she was so sweet doing it, she just brushed it so softly, and then of course we had to 'fix' all of her baby dolls hair. Thank you all for the sweet comments when I was 'freaking out' about him being gone. Ha!
Justin made it in on Friday evening, and I couldn't have been more excited! Even though he was only gone for a day short of a week it seemed like a year! Maybe my 'seperation anxiety' has a lot to with the fact that I am preggo, but good gosh I missed my man! Grace missed him SO much too, it was a perfect reunion at the airport, Grace screamed at the top of her little lungs the moment she saw him. (of course I left my camera at home and wasn't able to capture this prescious moment, boo.)
We had an oh so fabulous weekend of playing! The weather was perfect and we took FULL advantage of it. Saturday we went to Dewberry Farms and had the time of our lives, there is just SO much to do there. Grace had a smile from ear to ear the entire time we were there! She just loved it. The pumpkin patch was HUGE! The hayride was worth the wait, and the scenery of all the little kiddos dressed in their halloween/fall best was just precious!
Sunday we didn't do too much. We laid low, relaxed, and watched TONS of football!!!! Have I told ya'll that Grace is obsessed with football (a.k.a "b-ball")??? Well, she is. It's SO fun to watch a game with her, she almost gets into as much as her Daddy.... almost.
Here are some pictures from this weekend:

{Pony ride - x 2}So, Grace will be turning 2 in less than 2 months!! Everytime I think about this I can't believe it.
My little precious angel baby is now my little precious angel toddler!!! I can't even begin to explain the joy she has brought to our lives. I honestly didn't know it was possible to love someone as much as I love our sweet girl. It has been SO fun watching her grow. All of her milestones, and explorations. From her first word to her first booboo. It has been nothing but fun. She is our greatest blessing.
I have started thinking about birthday party stuff, since I want to get most of the planning done so I don't have to stress about it when Jacob arrives. Grace has an absolute passion for (none other than) COWS! Moo-moos as she calls them, will be the theme of her birthday party this year. I am so excited to be creative and make this as girly as possible. Afterall cowprint and hot pink is SO girly in my opinion. Erica at Sweetprints is designing her birthday invites as we speak, and I can't even WAIT to see what she creates. She's amazing. I will share the minute I get them!
If you have some FABulous ideas (I know ya'll do!) please SHARE!!!!!!
I hope ya'll had a blessed weekend! XOXO
{Driving down the road, I look in my rear-view mirror to see this, I was hysterical, I almost had to pull over I was laughing so hard, I have NO idea where she got these glasses from!}
