Luvs & Hugs
Well, playing with a new camera, some snow and Christmas around the corner have all contributed to us taking too many pictures –some good and some bad -They are all just “Day In The Life” of Grace the first three weeks of December.
You can view these in a number of ways -either by scrolling through the pages and clicking on the pics you want to see, or by viewing as a sideshow, or a combination.
Tonight when it came to bath time, we decided to not use her infant thingy, …and instead put grace right in the sink!? It was some good fun and of course we took too many pictures and too much video!
Well, yet another stellar check-up. We know that Grace is no heavyweight, and we were very shocked to see that she is only 17lbs!? Up only a few lbs since her 6month check-up. **BUT** she has jumped up to the 20-25% for weight! That is great. She’s well above that for her height and the size of her head. The latter measurement she’s always over-achieved 🙂 .
Grace got a bit of blood drawn from her foot to check for iron level. They can check on-the-spot and her level was perfect –and she didn’t much mind the needle prick.
And, as always her love for Dr. Columbo continues. She certainly has a crush on him and he is great with her. As always they engaged in all kinda of fun interaction.
While we’ve debated and changed our mind a million times, we did give Grace the H1N1 vaccine today. She’ll go back in a month for the 2nd and final round.
And, Kathy brought a huge batch of cookies and a nice Christmas card for Dr. Columbo and his staff, that was really nice and it is no wonder why Grace is his favorite patient!
Sarah Palin came to Reno to meet Grace and sign Grace’s copy of “Going Rogue”
It was truly a great time and Sarah was soo very nice to Grace. And what a very nice memory for Grace to have in her scrap book -an autographed copy of Sarha’s book, as well we got a few pictures.
We got our first major storm of the winter. VERY cold and a decent amount of snow. It was Grace’s first time playing and she did great! We dressed her up in her fancy snow suit and went to our neighborhood park.
We went to In-N-Out Burger and Grace had her first ever French Fry (and yes, we got a bit carried away with the camera inside the restaurant).

Grace went out shopping with Mom, Uncle Brian, Grandma Rose and Grandpa Ray ….and who did they stumble into Yep, Santa Claus!? Very much a surprise -impromptu visit!
Wow, we sure took a lot of pictures and videos this month……
Thanksgiving was very simple. We cooked a nice fresh Turkey compliments of Grandma Rose -and Brian came up to visit for a few days.
Grace and Dad decided to have a little dance party.
Lately we’ve noticed Grace will sometimes put on some special “moves” when she hears music ….so we put her in front of the stereo and? I played various music in hopes that she’d put on? a show. ? Kinda funny.

Another Great Month Of Fun Pictures and Videos. Please view the many we posted……
It was a low-key halloween …first event for Grace was a lunch date with Mom and Dad …then later we put on a couple of other costumes. ? Some nice tricker-treaters came to the house and Grace was a great host.
