B-to-the-L-O

My very dear friend, Brandi, came out to visit us this weekend. We had so much fun having her here and I enjoyed some much needed girl time! I also needed a little taste of home and she brought a little California with her which was nice.

Brandi and I met in the teaching credential program at Cal State Fullerton when we were 22 and have only grown closer over the years. She was the one who convinced me to get my master's degree and I am forever grateful to her for that. She has seen me through very high highs and very low lows. I love her with all of my heart and miss her terribly everyday! Thank goodness for text messaging or I'd be lost! Thanks for coming out, Brandi! I miss you already!

B and I at the Abby. Yummo! We ordered SO much food!


Jackson wanted to sit by Brandi at lunch. So sweet! He was calling her Gramma because she was staying in the room Grandma stays in when she comes to visit.


Me, Jack, and the goggles at lunch.


Jack and his new turtle goggles and lunch box. He walked through McAllister's like this. Good thing he's only 2 and people thought it was funny. Crazy kid!


Me and my B-Lo outside the candy store where we once again gorged ourselves.


I am so blessed to have such an amazing friend (and friends) in my life! I am forever grateful for how this woman has impacted my life!!!

I am so jealous you have McAllisters. It is one of my favorites. We had it in Springfield and I was addicted to their sweet tea. I'm glad you had fun with your friend. Love ya!

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. ...

Our Miracle

"He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted." Job 9:10 "You are the God who performs miracles; You will display Your power among the peoples." Psalm 77:14 Meet our miracle...and our secret. Yes, it is true. I am pregnant; about twelve weeks and a few days to be exact. We wanted to make sure this baby was healthy before announcing how great God has been to us! We have known about this precious little blessing for a little over two months and have eagerly awaited numerous sonogram and test results. We have witnessed God's mighty, yet gentle, hand every Tuesday for the past five weeks. This baby is a fighter. However, the road is not "clear" quite yet. We met with the pareanatoligist today to do a sonogram and blood test to determine if there are any chromosomal abnormalities; specifically Downs, and Trisomy 13 and 18. Although the sonogram looked great and the doctor said we were in the "safe zone," we are stil...

9 Month Pics

I must admit that Grady's 9 month pictures were a challenge. The weather has been quite cold so I had to do something inside. It was cloudy the day I shot the pictures so my lighting was off. To top it all off, Grady is on the move and I forget that I have a belly to contend with! Lol! I tried my best! Enjoy:)
