Gracie

Gracie is number 4.  She will be ONE YEAR OLD in November! GASP! 

We learned about Gracie when she was 13 days old, and the following day I went to pick her up from the NICU.  She was a whopping 4 pounds 2 ounces when I brought her home! (she was 3 lb 11 oz at birth!)  and preemie clothes were too big for her! 

She has some developmental delays ... due to her prematurity, and a few other factors.  We have quite a few therapists for her ... and specialists.  BUT ... though she has these disabilities,  this does not define who she is.  She is a bubbly, happy, bright eyed baby girl who LOVES her siblings ... is a MAJOR daddy's girl, and oh yeah, she likes me too ;)  her giggle is simply TOO cute for words! 

She is a go getter ... she has figured out how to do things in HER OWN way ... and she has yet to give up on anything!  Im so lucky to be her mommy! 

Oh, and yes, she is a forever member of our family as well .. and will finalize her adoption with in the next few months.  :)
