Tuesday Toddler Tales

We saw Santa...again. Santa will definitely know what Jack wants for Christmas!

I have three stories so bear with me. I couldn't choose a story for this week. I swear I should start writing a book. This kid can make me millions!!!

Story 1: A few days ago Jackson watched a Christmas episode of "My Friends Tigger and Pooh." On the show, Winnie the Pooh licked the North Pole only to find that it was one big candy cane. Well, on Sunday night, Scott, Jackson, and I went on a train ride called The Polar Express. Outside the event there were poles decorated in white and red like candy canes. Every time Jackson came up to one of the poles he would lick it. Scott and I were laughing and freaking out all at once! Gross but funny! Good thing we weren't getting our freeze Sunday or the kid would still be stuck there!

Story 2: This is an update on our sleep deprivation. Jackson slept through the night last night, stayed in his bed the ENTIRE time, and did not wake up until 9am! Wahoo! And, the only reason I knew he was awake was because I was in the guest room right below his room and I could hear his little feet pitter-pattering around. I expected to find him in some sort of mess but when I can in he had a HUGE pile of books next to him and he was reading. Oh my gosh! I seriously thought I was having the best dream of my life! Thank goodness for Christmas miracles!

Story 3: We were driving home today from our fun playdate and Jackson asked me for a cupcake. So, I handed him the chocolaty delight and he went to town (thanks Missy). I looked in the mirror and his face was covered in chocolate. He informed me that he was done and he ate the trash to. "What? The trash? What are you talking about?" Apparently he had eaten the paper wrapping on the outside of the cupcake. He informed me that it was in his belly. The kid did tell me he was hungry.

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...
