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.

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.
