A Dedication


One of the most special things we get to do with our boys is dedicate them to the Lord. Scott and I truly believe that God has blessed us with the tremendous honor and responsibility of raising His children. We know we cannot raise these boys alone. We need our family, friends, pastors, and, most importantly, Him. Our Pastor, whom we love dearly, was able to dedicate both Grady and Wyatt. Wyatt was actually in my belly when we dedicated Grady ironically. The boys were amazing on stage and Wyatt got very still when Pastor John prayed over him. What a comfort in knowing the Lord is walking this journey of parenthood right alongside us. We are blessed beyond measure!

Holy Holy

I can't stop singing, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty." Scott and I went to the "big" ultrasound today where we tested to see if our baby had Down's, one of the Trisomy disorders, or any neural tube defects. I must admit the palms were a little sweaty and the heart was racing a bit. As surreal as this pregnancy is, I don't want anything to be wrong with this precious life inside of me. Well, holy is right. The Lord is not just good; He is awesome! Our little baby instantly began moving and grooving for us showing off fingers and toes and a great heart beat! Even though I am on my third, watching the miracle of life on that screen NEVER gets old! It truly blows my mind every time I get to see our precious angels developing inside of me! The scan came out wonderfully. We got all positives on all the scans the doctor (who was absolutely INCREDIBLE) could do. Now we just wait for some blood work to confirm that everything is okay with our little 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...

A Welcome Blessing in a Surprise

"For you created me in 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 A few weeks ago Scott and I got the surprise of our lives! I was home with the kids. Jack was napping while Grady and I were snuggling while I was feeding him his bottle. I had a strange feeling that something was up. I decided to take a pregnancy test not thinking the answer would be anything but negative. As the hour glass blinked on the screen, I continued to play with my baby. Then, the words appeared..."pregnant." What? No way! I think I had to look at the test a million times before I really believed what I was reading. How was this possible? I was holding my 4 month old for goodness sakes! I laughed out loud right then and there and praised God for His humor and His blessing. Scott didn't get home until late that night. I wrote, "Oops! We did it agai...
