Our Week in Review

We have had a fun week enjoying the Ft. Worth Zoo and a kid concert at the church where I attend MOPS. Jackson has had an exciting week! Here are a few pictures from our adventures. Enjoy!

All the kiddos. Cheese!

We got stuck inside the penguin exhibit because it started down-pouring. This is Texas:) Anyway, there were two penguins that kept swimming back and forth playing with the kids. They were so funny!

Jack and Gavin being safe holding hands as they walk through the zoo!

THe 4 kiddos:Jackson, Caden, Sydney, and Gavin watching the monkeys

Jackson petting the fake elephant. I think he was more impressed with this little guy than the actual elephants!

This was so cool. We went into an area filled with birds with a stick with seeds on it. The birds flew all around us and landed on our arms and hands. The kids were laughing so hard!

Sydney cracking up at all the birds on her!

The boys loving the birds and cracking up!

Swinging like a big booy!

Checking out his shadow. I explained to him that he has a shadow and he was intrigued the rest of our time at the park.

Smiling at mommy through the planets.

Rockin' out at the Kidz Kingdom concert.

Dancing the night away at his concert:)

Loving on baby Claire, my friend, Michelle's, baby. He was so sweet with her! It was precious!

I made eggs for us this morning and this is what they formed when I cracked them in the pan. Pretty cheesey that I took a pic but it was funny that the eggs formed a smiley face:)

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...

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...
