Ok, so a normal life update for our adoring fans

Gracie is a busy bee between all of our Dr. visits and infusions. She is currently a complete log roller. She can roll from back to front and front to back these days, so she rolls all over the place all the time. :) She also likes to roll onto her tummy and try to get her legs under her. Looks like she will be mobile pretty soon. So far the only progress she makes in that arena is to turn herself around, kind of like a hand on a clock goes around. Its pretty cute although she is easily frustrated at her lack of mobility right now.

She also can sit up completely unsupported. She's still a bit tippy, but for the most part she is getting pretty good at it.


New stuff- we got Gracie a new stroller for our return to Minnesota. Its way cool and around here we call it the Cadillac. :) Fancy contraption to the max! Gracie still has a bit of stranger anxiety, so I wanted a stroller that could have her face me or face out depending on how she's feeling that particular day. And as I looked for one, I realized that as simple as that requirement is, there are not many strollers that will do it. And those that do are pretty pricey. Well luck was on our side this past Sunday when on a whim we visited the local Home and Patio Show and saw that a baby store in Gainesville had a booth there. I spoke to the lady about my fruitless search and she pulled out this cool stroller that had an easily reversible handle and all-direction wheels. Cool stuff. She was giving us the demo and then she opened the canopy all the way and it seriously extends all the way down almost to the baby's knees! WOW! And with a light-sensitive baby like we have, that was a really attractive feature. It was still a bit pricey, so Jimmy and I decided to make another lap around the booths to think about it. The saleslady clinched the deal when she offered us a discount to take it off her hands right then and there. SOLD!

So far, Gracie seems to really love it. She seems really comfy in it and not anxious at all. We're all very pleased with the purchase so far. Now time will only tell if it can handle the snowy slush that will be awaiting us in Minnesota. :) You never know.
Here it is, the Bumbleride Flyer in Ruby Ruby. :)



Other than that, Gracie is just being Gracie. She loves jumping in her jumpy chair and pulling off her socks at every opportunity. She is enjoying trying some new foods... most recently pureed carrots and here are a few pics of her enjoying her dinner last night- pureed spinach and raisins. Yummy!




I'm strong to the finish, 'cause I eats me spinach!
