Yep! You read that right, Grace is 14 months old and we just completed her second trip to Disney World. We have kindly told her we are not going back until she is 14 years old. It was an excellent trip and Grace was a wonderful traveler. She really enjoyed seeing all the characters and wasn't even afraid of Beast from Beauty and the Beast. I thought he looked a little creepy but she didn't seem to mind. I will post pictures when we get them downloaded.
Well we have reached a few more milestones with Grace, she is finally crawling on all fours and not just doing the army crawl. She is still getting the hang of it so she goes pretty slow but she is starting to realize she can get places that way. As I said in my previous post I thought Grace was starting to sit up on her own and sure enough she is. She does it the sit up style so she is already working on her abs but she gets from laying down to sitting up and really thinks she is hot stuff!!! Today she pulled her self up to a kneeling position by pulling on my shirt so I guess we are in for some changes at our house.
Well I am extremely tired so I must go to bed.

New Year's Resolution
So one of my New Year's Resolutions was to get better at blogging. I barely ever write on here and am sure that people have stopped reading by now. So hopefully some will come back and see what is happening in the Vrieze household.
Last week at PT the therapist gave Grace an assessment for her Gross Motor Delay. As I had suspected Grace is at about the level of a 9 month old. So this weekend Grace decides that she is going to start doing some new things. I am almost 100% positive that she went from laying down to sitting up this weekend. Even though I never actually saw her do it I am pretty positive that twice when I left the room she was laying down and when I came back she was sitting up!!! Then Sunday morning Scott put her behind her walking toy and she took a stroll across the living room, mind you the living room is not all that big but she still walked and we didn't have to hold the walker so it didn't go to fast! I guess all Grace needed was to be told she was behind to get her butt in gear. Or else they were all flukes and she won't do them again for a while!
I also have to let you nkow that I am a little concerned about my child's pain threshold. We discoverd over the past month that most of her teeth have decided to all come in at the same time and unless myself or grandma hadn't stuck our fingers in her mouth we would have never known! Thats really got to hurt. But then the poor girl bumps her head and cries I just do'nt get it!
Well I hope that everyone had a great Christmas and New Year and that you are able to hold to any resolutions you made.
