The Fish Tank

I am almost at the 6 month mark and feeling wonderful! I cannot believe how fast time is going by or how HUGE I am but I am enjoying every second! I can really feel him moving around now which is incredible! Jackson is excited and proud to be a big brother and talks about Grady all the time. The funny thing is he gives my belly this strange look now that it has gotten bigger. He knows his brother is in there somewhere (he likes to think he's in my belly button) but I'm not sure he gets how mommy's belly has gotten so big all of a sudden! All-in-all, I am doing great and feel humbly blessed! I go back to the doctor the first week of February so I will keep you posted!

BOY! We are so excited to add another boy to our brood and Jackson is very excited to have a baby brother! My mom and I had the awesome opportunity to go to Stork Vision to have an ultrasound done. We got to see the baby for about thirty minutes and even got a dvd of the visit! He was moving and looking at us! It was incredible! We are just so very excited to have a healthy baby! Thank you so much for all of your prayers! Please continue praying for us and our growing family! I am 18 weeks. Almost halfway through! Meet Grady Steven Fish I'm a boy Waving to us:)

I went for my 16 week check-up yesterday. I can't believe I am 16 weeks already, but, at the same time, I feel like I've been pregnant forever. Anyway, I was nervous for this appointment because I haven't been to the doctor in 3 weeks. She took my weekly "security blanket" visits away since I was doing so well. We went into the non-sono room which always makes my heart flutter. For some reason with this pregnancy, and the two prior, she cannot seem to ever find the heartbeat. Plus, I get so nervous that my heart rate goes up so sometimes she can't tell if it's my crazy heart beating uber-fast or the baby. So, of course this time was no different; no heart beat found. We moved to Room 5, the sonogram room. I nervously waited for the machine to start up so I could see this little bugger. And there the baby was, getting bigger with the heart beating away! The baby was going CRAZY moving like a lunatic! It was jumping, flipping over, kicking, moving its arms u...
