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

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.
