Jacie's "News House"

We had been a little concerned about Jacie's temperament during the whole transition (she was pretty irritable for awhile), but it turned out she was just as ready as us to get re-settled. She was so excited to be in her new house, or "news house" as she called it. It was so reassuring how quickly she became our sweet little happy girl again!!! She had fun sharing Mama's stress ice cream (although we had to eat it with a fork because it was the only utensil we could find), she played in her swimming pool in the backyard, and she got to hang out inside the coffee table since the glass was still packed.

Playground Queen

Little did Mama know that Jacie had overcome the playground slide fears she had between the time we were selling our house and the time we stayed in the San Antonio apartment. Mama took Jacie to the apartment playground and was dreading it a bit because it looked too big for her. Mama offered to take Jacie down the little slide on her lap, and Jacie left Mama in the dust to do the bigger slide on her own!!! She even went down it backwards on her stomach at one point!!! She has her Daddy's dare-devil attitude.

Last Sunday in Arlington

On Jacie's last Sunday in Arlington, we went to church (Mama cried uncontrollably for 2 Sundays in a row), and then we got Jacie's bangs trimmed by someone other than Mama for the first time. Jacie was not a fan of having that done-- Daddy had to hold her, and the man had to cut them while she had her head on Daddy's shoulder. Hey, it got done!!!

Saying Goodbye to Some Friends

We had a few friends over to the old Arlington house one last time before heading out to San Antonio. Jacie had fun getting to hang out with the Luce Family, the Danklefs Family, and the Prices.

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Jacie and Daddy started off my 2nd Mother's Day by letting me stay in bed a little late. They made me breakfast, colored me a picture, and gave me a couple of cards. We had a fun time going out to lunch, and then Jacie took a 3-hour nap!!! We've worn her out with all of our travel lately. What a sweetie!!

Ornery Girl

Jacie is getting quite sassy in her ripe age of 21 months!!! She's officially hit the "MINE!" phase, which has created a few challenges. She's getting more and more adventurous-- loves to climb, open and close things, etc. Her disposition can change in a matter of seconds, so we enjoy the smiles and giggles when we can!!!

Latest News

Jacie has a lot of new things going on in her life. She'll soon be leaving Arlington to move to San Antonio. She'll be staying home with Mom now, and she'll be a big sister at the end of October!!! All of this calls for a little dancing, right!?! Jacie enjoyed busting a few moves in front of Chuy's restaurant in San Antonio this week.
