Sunday Best

So, I am sure that all of you wives out there think you are married to the best daddy ever but I truly believe that I am the one and only woman who is:) Scott is not only an amazing husband and friend to me but he is also a tremendous dad! Just ask his son! Jackson is enamored with Scott. I understood this even more Saturday morning when I went into his room to get him up.

He asked the usual, "where's daddy," question in which I typically reply, "at work." However, it was Saturday so I was able to tell Jack that his daddy was downstairs. I wish I had the camera at that moment to show you the sheer excitement on our son's face to know that his daddy was home.

I took Jackson to see Scott and he was attached to his daddy's hip the rest of the morning. Scott offered to make pancakes so I started on some chores. I went upstairs to put some laundry away as Jackson helped his daddy make pancakes. When I came down Jackson was sitting at the counter with the pancakes that his daddy made. However, these were not just any pancakes...Scott has used a cookie cutter to make them in the shape of a star (Jackson LOVES stars). I was so impressed. Mommies are usually the ones who cut their child's food into shapes but it was daddy this time. Jackson was beyond thrilled and couldn't stop talking about it!

This is just a glimpse at the MANY simple things Scott does for his son...and me, of course! Thank you, Scott, for being the BEST daddy and husband in the entire universe!

Wahoo....star pancakes!!!!

Holy Holy

I can't stop singing, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty." Scott and I went to the "big" ultrasound today where we tested to see if our baby had Down's, one of the Trisomy disorders, or any neural tube defects. I must admit the palms were a little sweaty and the heart was racing a bit. As surreal as this pregnancy is, I don't want anything to be wrong with this precious life inside of me. Well, holy is right. The Lord is not just good; He is awesome! Our little baby instantly began moving and grooving for us showing off fingers and toes and a great heart beat! Even though I am on my third, watching the miracle of life on that screen NEVER gets old! It truly blows my mind every time I get to see our precious angels developing inside of me! The scan came out wonderfully. We got all positives on all the scans the doctor (who was absolutely INCREDIBLE) could do. Now we just wait for some blood work to confirm that everything is okay with our little boy. ...

A Welcome Blessing in a Surprise

"For you created me in my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:13-14 A few weeks ago Scott and I got the surprise of our lives! I was home with the kids. Jack was napping while Grady and I were snuggling while I was feeding him his bottle. I had a strange feeling that something was up. I decided to take a pregnancy test not thinking the answer would be anything but negative. As the hour glass blinked on the screen, I continued to play with my baby. Then, the words appeared..."pregnant." What? No way! I think I had to look at the test a million times before I really believed what I was reading. How was this possible? I was holding my 4 month old for goodness sakes! I laughed out loud right then and there and praised God for His humor and His blessing. Scott didn't get home until late that night. I wrote, "Oops! We did it agai...

Tuesday Toddler Tales~A Mother's Worst Nightmare

I lost Jack. Don't worry, he has been found but for the longest I'd say 8 minutes of my life he was gone. I was at the mall with two girlfriends and their kiddos. We were all having lunch at the food court when I stepped away to get some ketchup. Jack stayed behind with his friends. I was gone for maybe a minute and a half or so. When I came back he was gone. His chair was pushed in and empty. I began to panic. One friend stayed behind with all the other kids while my other friend and I darted off in oposite directions. Others began to notice our panic and jumped in the search with us. I saw nothing in my direction, not even shoppers. I turned around and started the other way. I got to the carousel where I thought he'd be and he wasn't. At this point it took everything in my power not to faint. I felt like everything around me was spinning. I was so overwhelmed with where to look. I just kept running, frantically asking people if they saw a little blond-haired boy with ...
