The Year of Gracie: There's a little bit of devil in her angle eyes

Not only is my blog title a cute lyric from a country song, it's so true! I have been so busy growing and chewing on everything that I haven't had much time to blog lately! One of my favorite things to chew on lately, is shoes! Mmmm shoes! My mommy has been the real only victim lately with the shoe chewing.....what can I say, her's are the yummiest!!! I have been so busy playing in the pool and practicing my swimming too! I am getting to be the best swimmer in the house!! (Ok maybe not, Nick and Em both swam in high school....but I'm close!) I got my second bath since being home the other day! I have officially out grown the utility sink! Luckily I have a kiddie pool that did the trick! :) I also got a new collar this last month! My old one was getting to be a little small (since I am growing so fast!) and was beginning to get kind of smelly!! My new collar brings out my eyes Em tells me :) That must be a good thing!! Nick's brother got a new house last month and I got to visit for the first time this week! Talk about loads of space!! I had such a great time! I met a new friend their too! Her name is Rosey and she is a boxer! We played so long and hard, that I slept the ENTIRE way home! I went to another vet visit yesterday too! I am weighing in at almost 36 pounds :) Everyone keeps telling me I feel heavier! All I know is, that I must not be too heavy, because everyone still loves to snuggle!!

I'm exhausted!! Sleep well everyone!
