Gracie, you are fast asleep as I write this.
You are such a funny little girl! Today I peeked in on your Sunday School class and they had all of you and the other baby toddlers sitting in miniature chairs and singing a song about wind in the trees. Adorable! You love interaction and love to participate in little activities.
You are also very strong willed when it comes to doing what you want to do! Daddy and I bought another lock for the oven drawer today, to keep you from hauling Mommy’s baking pans all over the house! Just when we thought we had the house “Gracie proofed!” Ha! You showed us!
You were so sweet with our puppy, Daisy, today. You went up to her and hugged her sweetly around the neck and laid your head down on her body . . . And then started petting her.
You went to sleep easily tonight and were such a good girl when I brushed your teeth at bedtime. I gave you some Ibuprofen and Tylenol, as you have a low grade fever and runny nose and have been fussy today. I think you either have a little cold, or are getting some new teeth. Right now you have 4 teeth on the top and 3 on the bottom. Love you sweetness and light!

Winter Days
1/31/10
Clayton, you made a crown at Sunday School this morning and wore it proudly home. Your hat says “Jesus Loves Clayton” and is adorned in jewels stickers. I was overjoyed that you were wearing your little hat and smiling proudly. Right on, buddy, I thought to myself - Jesus does love you and you are the most special little boy ever! You were absolutely darling when you told your Sunday School teachers “bye, bye and thank you.” Later today we went to Winterfest in Coralville - and we looked at the train exhibit in the car museum. You were in heaven watching all the trains with Daddy! They also had a horse drawn carriage - you liked looking at the Belgium horses from afar, but got upset when I tried to take you up close to them. They were very big! You and I went inside a tee-pee set up outside and you had so much fun playing in there. Later, we came home and you and Gracie were so cute cuddling and wrestling on the couch. Right now Daddy is upstairs tucking you in to sleep in your race car bed. Your night time routine consists of brushing your teeth, putting on pj’s, putting your clothes in the hamper, reading a few books, singing a song, saying prayers, asking for a puppet show and for us to make up a story with “Clayton” in it, and us snuggling with you. You are pretty picky about having your Thomas blankie covering you up, and if it is in the washing machine you get upset. You are very attached to your Thomas blanket.
