Beach Day

I know I am going to take a TON of pictures on this trip so I decided to blog while away since we have internet here. That way I don't bombard you with a million pics all at once. Yesterday was a fun day. We started at one of my favorite breakfast restaurants, Charlie's Chili, by the pier. Yummo! I stuffed myself! Then we hung out at the beach house and took Jack to the beach. We took him Friday when we arrived but only to the sand. This was NOTHING compared to yesterday! He was in hog heaven! The kid LOVED the sand and LOVED the ocean even more. He jumped right in and kept BEGGING us to go back in the ocean when we'd take him out! So funny!!!

He made sand castles with Daddy, chased some birds, found some sand crabs (which he thought was so cool), and even saw a seal playing in the water. We never really see seals in Newport, usually just dolphins, so this was cool for the whole family. It felt so good to have our toes in the sand and was so wonderful to watch my son enjoy what I so love, the beach. After the beach, Scott, Jack, and I headed to my parents house. We enjoyed some time with them and then Scott and I were off to date night. Whoohoo!!! We left the kid behind overnight! Can't get any better than that! It was MUCH needed!!!

Enjoy the pics below! More to come...

Looks like so much fun! So jealous. Texas beaches are nothing like that...I mean, where is all the nasty water? Ha! You are going to have to help me get over my fear of open water so I can go soak up some California sun! Can't wait for you to get back so we can hang out. See you soon!

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...

Grady's Story

Grady Steven Fish 7lbs. 3oz. 19 1/2inches April 25, 2009 4:45pm SURPRISE! Actually, I think absolute shock is more appropriate! This was me a week ago...happy at 36 weeks pregnant with not much happening. I thought for sure that I had at least 2 weeks left, if not four. I did, however, frantically run around town that day getting all the things I thought I needed to get just in case. Good thing I am a little neurotic and OCD because it paid off a few days later. I have had contractions on and off since I was 25 weeks pregnant or so. I never thought anything of them because they were so sporadic and fairly painless. Friday camearound and I noticed that I was having more contractions than usual. Grady was still moving about so I didn't worry much. Around 2:30pm that day I laid down because the contractions were coming on a little stronger and closer together. I called Scott to let him know and honestly, to see when he was coming home from work. Jackson was still napping and I wasn...
