Crazy Grady




Mr. Grady has decided that this is the week of growing up. Once again he has not followed through on his end of the deal with his mommy. He was not to grow up so fast! Jackson did everything early and became this "boy" in the blink of an eye so I told Grady while he was in my belly that he has to stay my baby for just a little longer. Well, apparently he didn't hear me!

Grady-do LOVES to sit up!!! He giggles, smiles, and coos when he is sitting. He can sit on his own without falling over for a minute or two. He still has a bobble-head but he doesn't seem to mind.


Grady has also gotten the hang of rolling over this week. He rolls onto his belly and then gets frustrated because he doesn't particularly like being on his belly but can't get back over. He now sleeps on his belly which freaks me out. I have these horrible mommy thoughts that he's not going to turn his head to the side and just get stuck with his nose in the mattress. I have become such a worry-wart since having kids! I wake up more now than when Grady was first born just to check on him! Lol!




One more big development for Grady is his two teeth. This one threw me for a loop since Jack didn't get teeth until 9 months and Grady was not showing any symptons! The funny thing is that he is getting his fangs not the typical front top or bottom teeth. As soon as they really come in I'll try to snap a picture. He does have two more teeth that I can see right under the gums. So, it looks like he will have at least four teeth in the next month or so. Crazy!

We go for Grady's four month appointment on the 25th. I cannot believe he is going to be 4 months!!! Oh my! I love my little snuggle-bug more than words!!! He is just so sweet and such a little charmer. There is something in this kiddo's eyes that make your heart melt!

Ok mom! No more pictures!!!

Notoriety

Teenage Mother A donkey owner Simon of Cyrene Who are these people? I am sure you can figure out the first one: Mary the mother of Jesus. Who are the others and what do all three of these people have in common? They all did extraordinary things but, for the most part, went unseen. Do you ever feel unseen? Undervalued? I do. I try not to get caught up in that space, but I find myself there too often. While Mary is infamous today, she wasn't when she brought the King into this world. She was a teenager who gave birth in a barn. She was an outcast who was pregnant but not married. She told of an unbelievable story involving an angel, a Spirit, and a Savior who was going to save the world. Could you even imagine? It's easy for us to be in awe of Mary. We know the whole story. She didn't. And neither did the people around her. She had to live it. To top it all off, she had to watch her beloved son die a gruesome death. Talk about feeling unseen and undervalued. She faithfu...

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. ...

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...
