Tuesday Toddler Tales


Every Tuesday my friend, Lindsay, writes a little anecdote about her toddler. I love the stories she shares and thought this was a fantastic idea. So, every Tuesday I will share a little story about what life with a toddler is really like! I hope you can all laugh a little and relate to the everyday new discoveries of being a parent to a toddler!

Today I Made Jackson his lunch and placed him in his booster at the table while I made my lunch. Everytime I looked over at him he would give me a funny look and move his arm really fast away from his side. Well, I sat down and began to enjoy my lunch with him proud of how much he had already eaten of his hot dog. I let Jackson down after we were done eating and began to clean up. While doing so he began to look in the hole on his booster where the tray would go. I was curious to see what he was looking at so I peered in the hole myself. To my surprise I found a stash of hot dogs. That's right folks, he was shoving his hot dogs down the tiny canal when I wasn't looking. All the while I was praising him for being such a good eater. Little booger! I'm onto him now though!!!

The evidence. I found 4 hot dogs shoved down that hole. I had to use a knife and some shaking action to get them out. Hopefully I found them all!!


Once again flashing his "look how cute I am mommy" face so that I would only laugh and not get upset with him. He's got me pegged!

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...
