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!

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. ...

Tuesday Toddler Tales~A Mother's Worst Nightmare

I lost Jack. Don't worry, he has been found but for the longest I'd say 8 minutes of my life he was gone. I was at the mall with two girlfriends and their kiddos. We were all having lunch at the food court when I stepped away to get some ketchup. Jack stayed behind with his friends. I was gone for maybe a minute and a half or so. When I came back he was gone. His chair was pushed in and empty. I began to panic. One friend stayed behind with all the other kids while my other friend and I darted off in oposite directions. Others began to notice our panic and jumped in the search with us. I saw nothing in my direction, not even shoppers. I turned around and started the other way. I got to the carousel where I thought he'd be and he wasn't. At this point it took everything in my power not to faint. I felt like everything around me was spinning. I was so overwhelmed with where to look. I just kept running, frantically asking people if they saw a little blond-haired boy with ...

Notoriety

Teenage Mother A donkey owner Simon of Cyrene Who are these people? I am sure you can figure out the first one: Mary the mother of Jesus. Who are the others and what do all three of these people have in common? They all did extraordinary things but, for the most part, went unseen. Do you ever feel unseen? Undervalued? I do. I try not to get caught up in that space, but I find myself there too often. While Mary is infamous today, she wasn't when she brought the King into this world. She was a teenager who gave birth in a barn. She was an outcast who was pregnant but not married. She told of an unbelievable story involving an angel, a Spirit, and a Savior who was going to save the world. Could you even imagine? It's easy for us to be in awe of Mary. We know the whole story. She didn't. And neither did the people around her. She had to live it. To top it all off, she had to watch her beloved son die a gruesome death. Talk about feeling unseen and undervalued. She faithfu...
