Half a Year! Oh My!



My Sweet Dosers~

Six months? Where has it gone? I think you get sweeter each and every day! Mommy cannot believe that you are already 6-months old! I am madly in love with you! My heart melts every time I look into those big blue eyes and see that gummy smile of yours! You are smiley and giggly and loving and sweet. You love to be around people smiling at everyone. You only really cry when you are hungry, have a dirty diaper, or are really tired and about to fall asleep. Sometimes you whine when you can't see mommy or want to be held. Other than that, you are a darn near perfect baby.

You scoot yourself around in a circle and to other various places. Rolling is what gets you where you want to go for the most part. Jackson still loves you more than words can describe. You are truly blessed to have him as a big brother and I am pretty sure you know it. He is very helpful in taking care of you and always wants to see you right when you wake up in the morning. You laugh at him a lot and love listening to him talk to you and say funny things.

You are a big boy now eating solid foods. So far you have tried bananas, pears, butternut squash, and peas. You could probably live without the peas but you tolerate them. Mommy is making your food homemade and loving every minute of it! I think all this yummy food has thrown you into a growth spurt. You are in at least 6-9 month clothes, if not bigger and almost size three shoes. You are still wearing size 3 diapers.

You and daddy are pals. You get quite excited when you see him wiggling all around and smiling from ear to ear. You love playing with him grabbing his hair and face. We absolutely adore you and love your sweet spirit. You light up our days bringing us so much joy. Until next month sweet boy...

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.
