My Sweet Boy

We had a 4D ultrasound appointment Saturday morning but Friday had to come first. Friday came and Jack and I had a great day. Scott and I even went on a date Friday night. We toured the beautiful hospital that I may deliver in and went to dinner. The cool thing about this hospital is that there is a webcam so all my Cali friends and family can see us after Grady is born. Anyway, I wasn't feeling well when we got home so I went straight to bed. Then 1am came and ugh! I woke up and just knew I had food poisoning. I was up from 1am to 4:30am sick. I finally fell asleep and woke up Saturday morning feeling a tad better. Of course I still wanted to go to the appointment if, for anything, to make sure Grady was okay.

So we went to the appointment and it was incredible. Grady wasn't being all that cooperative, probably because I was so sick, but we still got to see him. He was all nuzzled up to my placenta and wouldn't turn his head for her to get a good shot of his face. We did get to see his body, legs and feet really well and we confirmed that he is definitely a boy. She told us that he already has some hair which is amazing that they can tell that already! Of the shots we did see, he looks just like Jackson! We got one picture below where he is looking right at us with his eye open. We are going to try and go back this week and get some better pictures so I will post those when I get them!

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

Don't Lose You

When Jackson was a baby, I would hop into my car on my lunch break and rush to his day care to see him. I had thirty minutes with my baby and I needed every last second. I was a mess of a new mom and had a really hard time leaving him everyday. I was caught in the conundrum of loving teaching with all that I was and loving being a mom desperately wanting to stay home. I established a neat relationship with Jack's care-takers. They were a little older than me and much wiser. They will never fully know how appreciative I am for their advice and comfort during those beginning moments as a mama. When I decided to leave my teaching career and move halfway across the country to do so, they gave me a piece of advice that I didn't take seriously initially but now hold dear. They told me I had to find something for me. They watched me finish my master's that year and knew I was the type that needed to be doing. They recognized that I was about to enter a season where I had to hold

Monday Musings~You have been called...

"For you created 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 ...to pray. Meet our newest addition; baby Fish. I am officially 8 weeks four days pregnant! PRAISE GOD!!!! We saw our precious miracle today for the second time; heart flickering away on the monitor with little arm and leg buds beginning to form. The doctor gave us a great report telling us that everything looks perfect...can't get any better than that. God is so good to us. We are blessed beyond belief to experience the miracle of life once again. Please pray for our growing family and our precious growing angel. We feel the presence of God daily and welcome and need your prayers.
