Summer Vacation as begun!!!


Life at the Smith house is BUSY…and messy and loud…and happy! 

Our little girl is constantly changing and growing more independent and it is amazing to watch, but incredibly tiring as well.  She is constantly on the go, which means we are constantly on the go.

 Graycen’s 16 month amazing-ness:
 
·         loves shoes, especially new shoes J  She’s had a recent growth spurt, which has resulted in needing some new (bigger) shoes.  Once home, she has to try them on over and over again AND check herself (and her shoes) out in the mirror.

·         Graycen also LOVES to read – really she loves to be read to.  Her favorite books at the moment are “Goodnight Gorilla” and “Guess How Much I Love You.”  We read these books at least 10 times a day, but I am not complaining. 

·         developing vocabulary: 
       -  ball
     -  "hay-yah" = Halen
     - puppy
     - "doh" = gross
     -  ouchie
 
·         understands simple directions and/or questions.  Garrett and I have LOVED this new ability.  It is so awesome to talk/ask her things and have her understand and do them.  We can ask her now if she is tired and wants to go upstairs to bed, if so, she will walk to the stairs and try to open the gate.  She will also take us to something if we don’t understand what she wants more of...
