Nursery



I decided that I really need to get back into documenting Gracie's milestones. I realized that I had not recorded any of the cute, amazing and adorable things that she did this summer. Everytime I am at my parents house and they see her do something funny they say, "Have you got that on video yet?" My response, "no" with a huge tone of guilt. And so since I am failing miserably at that I will try to at least put those thing into writing.


Last Sunday was Gracie's first day in nursery. I was all prepared, extra wipes and a change of outfit for when she was going to throw up from too much crying. And as a bonus her small blankie which doesn't get to leave the house even got to come the first day. I took this picture before we left that morning.

So I walked her down the hall giving her the final talk that she had had all morning of how fun it would be to sing songs, read books, color, have snack and the bubbles of course. Everytime I gave this speach she would repeat after me all the fun things she would do, but little did she know they would be minus mommy.
Well when we went in Levi was crying already so that kind of got the ball rolling. I gave her a kiss, handed her off and I was gone. As I was walking out my cousin Eric was walking in and picked up Levi and Gracie, and for the next 2 hours sat on the floor of the nursery in his suit. Gracie held on tight the whole time to her little blankie, and never left Eric's lap. Unfortunatly Eric's calling is not in nursery and I am pretty sure that he can't skip young men's every week so I guess we have spared the wonderful nursery leaders from Gracie's throw up and passing out for another week.

On another note I REALLY enjoyed Relief Society!
