Illness, awards, teething, friends, fun

This week was mostly spent getting back into the swing of having mom and Caulder home. They got back monday night after a ton of fun in Denver playing with the cousins and their families. Thank you Javan and Jamin for a great weekend. You guys are such awesome hosts. Thanks to Jamin, especially, for not sending me home with blue teeth! We had a blast with your beautiful families!

We added preschool, college class, Annie's flu, Caulders tooth, Claire and Savannah's friends and their movie party, and a school assembly to the regular everyday craziness at our house, and it was an eventful week!! We are glad to have our family all together again. It definitely makes us realize that there is no place on earth we would rather be.

It's been awhile

I have been meaning to update for so long and it just keeps getting shoved to the bottom of my to do list.

Life is good for the Pace family. The summer was filled with swimming, birthday parties, camping and trips. We were very blessed to have endured each of those things without many trials along the way.

Caulder and I have been little domestic airplane frequent fliers as we are currently on our third out of four trips to take place within a months time. Flying to Denver, North Carolina, Washington, and next week back to Denver. Caulder has really gotten the hang of sitting on mom's lap for over an hour or more on the airplanes, sleeping in different places and eating out a lot. He also enjoys our layovers in various airports where I let him run wild to expell some energy while I run behind him. He figured out that the one place I can't follow him is into the men's bathroom, though, and tends to seek it out when hanging out in the terminal just so he can see my reaction when he heads that direction. Smart boy.

We sure miss our Todd and girls when we are gone, though. It makes us appreciate them even more when we are all together as a family.

Savannah and Claire both started dance again in this fall and Savannah is continuing her piano lessons. Savannah is now in third grade and Claire in first. I can't believe how fast they are gorwing up!!
