Sugar and Spice...

It is a well known fact in my family that I cried for three days when I found out Eliza was a girl one month before she was born. I thought she was a boy. I was ready for a boy. It was one more head of hair I would have to do. I got over it fast. She is wonderful. I am really enjoying this time with her. Today she helped grandma and I make strawberry jam. Her job was to stir. And I must say she did a great job!

Our easy going girl



trademark bows, doing her hair isn't so bad! Lindsey and Emily used to tell people that I didn't want a girl because I would have to do her hair!

...And eveything nice. Thats what little girls are made of. Thanks for not being a boy! I am sure glad that Aunt Becky had a boy so she could use the boy blessing outfit I bought for you!
A few weeks ago the photographer who did Sara and Neils wedding set up a photo shoot for Gracie. She called today to tell me they were finished. She did a fantastic job. It is so good to see my little Gracie photographed so beautifully. Check out this link to see a slide show of the pictures, just put brownbaby in for the pass code. Thanks Shellee, this means the world to me

    Oh I love my Liza baby. I am still a little bitter that you didn't give her to me, you promised! But I know why you want to keep her, she is the sweetest:) Liza, good job on the jam, will you share some with me?

    What a neat slideshow of Grace! I watched it during recess and when the students came back in they wondered why there were tears in my eyes. So cute!

    I can't tell you how much I love this post. I love the pictures of Gracie. They are priceless. But even more, I love the story of how you didn't want to do another girls hair. A week after I found out Becca was to be a girl (my 3rd as well) I was FIGHTING Kayla and Ash on their hair and I started crying. More hair?!!! However, I know we wouldn't trade our girls for anything!!!
