Crazy Grady




Mr. Grady has decided that this is the week of growing up. Once again he has not followed through on his end of the deal with his mommy. He was not to grow up so fast! Jackson did everything early and became this "boy" in the blink of an eye so I told Grady while he was in my belly that he has to stay my baby for just a little longer. Well, apparently he didn't hear me!

Grady-do LOVES to sit up!!! He giggles, smiles, and coos when he is sitting. He can sit on his own without falling over for a minute or two. He still has a bobble-head but he doesn't seem to mind.


Grady has also gotten the hang of rolling over this week. He rolls onto his belly and then gets frustrated because he doesn't particularly like being on his belly but can't get back over. He now sleeps on his belly which freaks me out. I have these horrible mommy thoughts that he's not going to turn his head to the side and just get stuck with his nose in the mattress. I have become such a worry-wart since having kids! I wake up more now than when Grady was first born just to check on him! Lol!




One more big development for Grady is his two teeth. This one threw me for a loop since Jack didn't get teeth until 9 months and Grady was not showing any symptons! The funny thing is that he is getting his fangs not the typical front top or bottom teeth. As soon as they really come in I'll try to snap a picture. He does have two more teeth that I can see right under the gums. So, it looks like he will have at least four teeth in the next month or so. Crazy!

We go for Grady's four month appointment on the 25th. I cannot believe he is going to be 4 months!!! Oh my! I love my little snuggle-bug more than words!!! He is just so sweet and such a little charmer. There is something in this kiddo's eyes that make your heart melt!

Ok mom! No more pictures!!!

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...

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...

The Promise Land

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11 We Christians like this verse; like A LOT. We have it written all over the place. We hang this verse up in our home and tattoo it to our bodies. Jeremiah 29:11 is everyone's life verse. I mean, who doesn't want to rest in knowing the God has a plan for our life; especially when that plan includes safety and prosperity. Even if I didn't believe in God, I would hold onto this verse. What if, however, we have been misinterpreting this verse all these years? This life, the here and the now, we like it. Well, some of us probably want to throw this life in the trash like a rough draft and have a do-over. But, for the most part, we hold onto this life for dear life. It is all we know. It can be scary to think of anything else. Because of this, we go all in even when the cards we are dealt are bad. Thi...
