Mr. Big Boy


"Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever." 1 Chronicles 16:34

Dear Grady~

Seven months have quickly come and gone. I cannot believe that seven months of your life passed by so fast. I feel like it should still be April with us still trying to get to know each other. Yet you keep growing each and every day astonishing us with your development and sweet spirit. You are one very special and unique little boy.

Your hair is quite fuzzy growing in a crazy spikey fashion with a strawberry blond color. One tooth has made its debut on the bottom. Teething didn't seem to bother you one bit. One morning you woke up and poof, there was the little pearly white tooth. You LOVE getting up on all fours rocking back and forth taking a few crawls here and there. Daddy and I keep encouraging you to go but I think we are going to regret that later. You are all smiles laughing and cooing all the time. You say dada, baba, and blah. No mama yet but we are working on it!

You went on your first airplane ride to Auntie Amy's house. Wow! You did FANTASTIC!!!! You slept and played each way. Never once did you cry. You are eating all kinds of foods these days. You like pretty much anything I give you which is nice. I know I say this every month, but I must say it again. We fall more deeply in love with you each and every day. You bless our lives so richly nothing could ever compare. Thank you for your sweet smiles and hugs and reminding us to smile each day!!!!

Until next month sweet angel...

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...

Grady's Story

Grady Steven Fish 7lbs. 3oz. 19 1/2inches April 25, 2009 4:45pm SURPRISE! Actually, I think absolute shock is more appropriate! This was me a week ago...happy at 36 weeks pregnant with not much happening. I thought for sure that I had at least 2 weeks left, if not four. I did, however, frantically run around town that day getting all the things I thought I needed to get just in case. Good thing I am a little neurotic and OCD because it paid off a few days later. I have had contractions on and off since I was 25 weeks pregnant or so. I never thought anything of them because they were so sporadic and fairly painless. Friday camearound and I noticed that I was having more contractions than usual. Grady was still moving about so I didn't worry much. Around 2:30pm that day I laid down because the contractions were coming on a little stronger and closer together. I called Scott to let him know and honestly, to see when he was coming home from work. Jackson was still napping and I wasn...

Joys and Sorrows

Ok,so I don't really know what to say. All I know is that writing is therapeutic for me and I think I need a little therapy right now. Where to begin? I guess with my doctor appointment. I went in for my routine 12 week check-up only to find out some grim news...the baby had no heartbeat and stopped developing at 10 weeks. No...this cannot be happening...again. There is just no way. God wouldn't allow this to happen again. Yet, it did. How am I feeling, you ask? Honestly, I don't really know. I am deeply saddened, angry,hurt, overwhelmed, fearful, determined, full of faith, lacking in faith, etc., etc. How should I be feeling? What should I do now? Do I sit and cry or do I go finish the errands I need to get done today? I am at a loss. What I do know is that less then a week ago I was experiencing such great joy. I watched my son enjoy the very things I loved as a child. I enjoyed time spent with my husband and with us as a family. I felt my toes in the sand, watched my fav...
