Highlights of 2011 thus far!

We have had a great year already and we're only 2 months into it!  Some of the events and changes in our lives have been:

- Gracy is becoming a bigger and bigger and bigger girl! We went to Gracyn's pediatrician this past week(fun fact:  I thought I wanted to be a pediatrician when I was in the second grade.  I think I just liked the word) and she is 26 pounds and 34 1/2 inches tall!  The check up went very well.  She got her last shot until she turns 3:-) 

- Justin is officially a CPA.  He got his certificate in the mail a few weeks ago.  Yay!  Congrats to him.  Gracy and I are so proud that his hard work has paid off.  He also began working at his new firm at the beginning of the year and is new getting the opportunity to work on audits as well as taxes. 

- Gracy got a new potty.  Unfortunately she only wants to sit on it when she doesn't have any "business" to take care of.  As soon as she feels some "business" coming she wants her diaper back on pronto.  It is so funny.  She is very shy about her "business".  She will go in the other room to find privacy when she is going in her diaper.  It is cute (well to me cause I'm her mommy).
  

- I have been decorating to make our apartment a little homier (is that a word?).  I will be posting a few of my decorating attempts soon!  I have also been trying to work on the wedding planning. . .I never could have imagined how much goes into a wedding. . . thankfully my mom and sister are helping with a lot of the planning and it is getting done slowly but surely, detail by detail.  Compromise is the word of the month in our home between my decorating and our wedding planning.  Justin and I tend to have very different ideas about both of these topics.  Lol!  By the time our wedding is over we should be pros at coming to conclusions and making decisions we can both live with.     

Justin loves taking pictures. . . can't you tell!  LOL!

Gracy dancing with Mickey Mouse!

Can you feel the beat? Oh ya! Gracy loves her new dancing Mickey that she got for Christmas from her Gigi.

Don't worry - after this video Gracy gave Mickey kisses;-)

LR BRIDAL SHOW 2011

I went to the Little Rock Bridal Show today with my friend Valerie.  We saw lots of beautiful and wonderful ideas!  Soo much fun!!  Let me know which ideas you guys like.  Also, look at my "likes" on facebook and click on jason crader photography.  He is doing a drawing for a free engagement session and picking one person that likes his page between now and jan. 25th.  You can do it and if you win tell him it's in my honor:  Greatly appreciated - Kami

It's Christmas-time!!

My favorite time of the year is upon us!  It is our first holiday season living in Little Rock, and we love it (especially the much warmer temperatures)!  I have attempted to add a few holiday touches to our little apartment; our Christmas tree is up and the stockings are hung (not by the chimney with care. . .no chimneyJLOL) .  Last Sunday we went to see Santa at the Park Plaza Mall.  While Dadda waited in  line, Gracy discovered the joy of escalators.  Needless to say momma’s biceps were burning the next day from lifting Gracy up and down for an hour. Unfortunately Gracy became tired after waiting in line, well playing, for an hour and was not in the mood to sit on Santa’s lap, so we bought the traditional “Terrified of Santa and crying for Momma” picture.  It reminds me of a picture my mom has of my sister and myself when we were two.  That’s all I have for now; in closing, we wish you all a very merry Christmas!
