Happy 1-Month Day Grady!

Happy 1-Month Birthday Grady Steven!

While we cannot believe you have been here for a month, it seems like you have been here forever! You have already blessed our lives beyond imagine! Our family feels complete with you. You are the sweetest little guy loving to be snuggled. You look at us with so much love in your eyes that it just melts our hearts! You are such a good baby not really crying unless you're hungry or have gas. You just kind of hang out doing the typical baby thing; eating, sleeping, and pooping:) You are growing and changing everyday which, while exciting and fun, makes mommy a little sad because I know how fast time flies! Each moment with you in our lives is precious!

You are becoming much more alert checking everything out around you and staying awake in much longer intervals. You have even smiled here and there at mommy and daddy. You still LOVE your sleep though! You sleep in three to four hour blocks which is nice in the middle of the night! I think we are going to have a tough time waking you up for school in the morning when you get older! You have also added to your repertoire of noises by cooing at us. We love it. You are still the noisiest sleeper alive grunting and whimpering all night long. It's actually quite funny!

Your brother still adores you not leaving you alone for a second! You just look at him in utter amazement. I think you react and respond to Jackson more than anyone and anything else! Your bond must have began in my belly. I love watching you gaze at him and listen to the funny things Jack says to you. For instance, to calm you down when you are crying he says, "Shhh. Shhh. It's okay buddy. I am here. It's okay." You truly love each other like no other already.

A) I love the sign. Only Megan. :)
B) I love the second picture. I was reading this line:
"You look at us with so much love in your eyes that it just melts our hearts!"
and I scrolled down to see the next pic and giggled.
C) I love that he stops crying when Jackson tells him that he's here. Super cute.

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. ...

The Cup

I walked into the kitchen and spotted a blue solo cup on the counter. The following conversation played out in my head: "Whose cup is this? Which kid took out yet another cup? Didn't I ask them to stop getting a new cup every time they needed a drink? What is wrong with these people? They obviously don't ever listen to me." In the midst of my frustration, I realized the cup was mine. Oopsies. Good thing I didn't speak those words aloud. I went on with my life and my to-do list leaving MY cup right where I found it. I am the grown-up and can leave my cup where ever my grown-up heart desires. I came back into the kitchen a little while later and saw the cup again. I completely forgot the cup was mine so I rehashed the above conversation in my head. I was baffled by who left that cup on the counter. And then I remembered it was me. Again. Y'all, I did this two more times throughout the night. It was like Groundhog's Day but I was the only one celebrat...

Baby on the Floor

Yesterday I was putting a couple of things in the closet for the baby of what is going to be the nursery. Jackson was helping me and asked me where the baby was going to live. I told him where and he was excited since the room is next to his. Later that night Scott and I asked him where the baby was going to sleep and he responded by telling us that the baby was going to sleep in his room. When I asked him where in his room he told me, "on the floor." Scott antagonized him telling him that the baby would not sleep in his room but in the nursery. Jackson got mad at him and yelled over and over again that the baby was sleeping in his room on the floor. Oh my...it starts already!
