Meet Jacie...

Jacie is the little princess in the house. Just the other day Caden was complaining about Jacie having her own room, and a queen-sized bed. Note: She doesn’t sleep in the queen bed. It is for guests. But it IS in her room. She still sleeps soundly in a crib...well, a soundly as you can get with night terrors and teething.
Jacie is a girly girl at times, but all tom-boy the next. Of course, that comes from the insane amount of boy's toys that she comes across every day. But in the end, she chooses her baby dolls over everything else.
She is getting more and more independent, and is almost ready to walk. But she can get everywhere she wants to by crawling. She even manages to make it up the stairs on occasion. And 'knock-on-wood' she hasn’t fallen down yet.
She loves to play in the kitchen, and is pretty good about only playing in the 1 tupperware cupboard she is allowed in. Sometimes she will open another cupboard and look to see if Chris or I are watching her. But as soon as she sees us, she closes it and goes right back to the one she can play in. And when she is upstairs, the toy kitchen is the first place she goes.
She absolutely loves to be outdoors. Whether it is playing in the grass, watching her brother's sporting events, or just going for a ride in the stroller, she smiles from ear to ear when she is outside.
She has mastered the art of communicating. At least if screaming until you get what you want is the appropriate method.She LOVES milk and juice, and was no problem to get off of formula and bottles. And she will clean her plate and the kid's plate next to her at every meal.She loves her big brothers and constantly smiles at them, laughs at them, and follows them all over the house. She also breaks their toys, rips their papers, gets in their way, and is the main reason they dont get to go to the playground every night.She will look so sad one minute...but then be laughing the next. And she has the cutest fake laugh. She even throws her head back to make it look real.

I cannot believe how big she is!!!!!! I miss her, she is growing so fast. The pictures came out great, I love the big cupcake!
Glad to hear she eats well, and left the bottles behind with no problem! (Now if she could teach Selah to drink from one, she would be my hero! and maybe how to eat food, too? She is eating cereal now, but little else. I swear...)
Give her some kisses for us, and hopefully we will see you sooon!
HAve a GREAT TRIP!!!!
