We have had a great start to summer. We went to California to visit our sweet family! It was so much fun to see everyone and Andrew and I got to get away in Santa Barbra! It was a wonderful trip! Grayson is growing and doing so many new fun things! He has found his voice and talks to us all the time. It just makes me laugh how much he talks and entertains himself! Too cute! He also found his thumb last week! Finally, he has wanted that thumb for a while! LOL! Loving this sweet boy! He has such a loving, happy personality! 



I found my thumb!! YUM!

Eating some prunes....Yummy! I love my new foods!

It's Summer!!




YEAH!! Summer is here! I get to spend every day with my precious boy! We made it through the end of school so well! We love our nanny and that made each day easy knowing he was so loved! What a fun summer we are going to have! Lots of fun pool days ahead! Grayson has been smiling and laughing so much! It is so precious to hear him laugh, it brightens my day! He is overall a happy boy and has been sleeping well at night! Yesterday was my birthday and we took him to the pool! He loved it! It was so sweet to watch him. And we were laughing hysterically when Andrew put him under the water. He came up bobbing around like a doll. It was so funny! He didn't cry or anything! What fun!  We are loving our family of three. Sometimes we are exhausted, but I know that being a parent is the hardest but most rewarding job!
 Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Almost there!

Summer is right around the corner! We have 2 weeks of school left! So excited for summer and all the time I get to spend with my little man! He is growing so much and is as handsome as can be! We have had 3 successful nights in a row. No more night feedings for his boy! He has DONE IT! SO excited! And I'm so excited that we pushed through sticking to the schedule that we committed to! He is doing great, and because mommy is getting sleep, life is grand! Mommy's first Mother's Day is tomorrow! I think all I want for Mother's Day is to go get my hair cut and colored! I mean, wow this hair is my last priority! Oh and so is the dog, but I am finally starting to remember her a bit more!  But she is still SO annoying. She runs away when we don't pay attention to her! I mean, I've told her she doesn't want to be an orphan dog. She has the "life" at our house even though she doesn't think so currently! But as long as she is sleeping on my bed, well she's got is pretty good! LOL! Loving being a mommy and loving my sweet boy! Afternoons are hard because I want to rush home to see him and spend every second with him that I can! I miss him and I want to play and love on him as much as I can! Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing mom's I know! I now know there is never enough thank you's to our mom's and all they have done for us! Love to you all!

Look at me! I'm SO strong! Mighty Man! LOL!


What's going on?

We made it!

Well, we made it through our first two days of work and daycare! G loves his nanny and we love her too! We are so blessed to have her take care of him! I missed my boy but I really love what I do too! I was just so tired this week, but we will all get adjusted! Grayson laughed for the first time on Friday! It was the cutest thing ever!! I wish I could get him to do it again! It was his gift to momma! It was precious! This week we start all over with 5:30 am wake up and bedtime, who knows for momma! We will just keep praying and pushing through! Andrew was a huge help this week, as it was an emotional one for me! I just love the family that we have become!

10 weeks.....Wow!

Wow these past two months have flown by! We have grown together as a couple and are learning so much about being parents! Each week has gotten better! Our fussy boy has turned into a smiling sweetie! It has been so much fun hearing him coo and watch him smile at us. Grayson and I were talking whale the other day...he kept repeating my sounds, it was the cutest ever!! His smiles keep getting bigger and happy wake times are longer!! Sleeping is getting better.....we are still getting up once a night, but he is doing great! I'm going back to work tomorrow. I know it will be good for me to slowly get back into the transition of working by going back now, but I'm gonna miss my boy!! We have been having so much fun, I don't want to leave him. Summer is right around the corner and we will have more time together soon! I also know that God will give me the strength, love, and energy to complete all my jobs--at home and school. Every day is a new day and I'm loving seeing what each day holds! Philippians 4:6-7 Be anxious for nothing but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.




Give me that Paci!!

Oh there it is...much better!!

AHH....I don't want to wear this gown! But, mom says I look handsome!

Happy Easter!

What a beautiful Easter weekend! The weather was delightful and our company was fun! We went to the park and did an Easter egg hunt! Grayson went to church for the first time. He liked how loud the music was and soaked in the message as he napped! :) We had a great week last week as well. He is making progress on his schedule but we are still getting up at night. Mommy is tired but little G is hungry! He is a growing boy! He is EIGHT weeks tomorrow! Wow these two months have flown and we love our little boy so much! Being parents has been such a delight! We just can't stop staring at and loving on our sweet Grayson! Here are some precious Easter pics of our baby!
Hoppy Easter!!



Wow! Look at this Handsome Pair! Mommy is so lucky to have such good looking boys in her life!



Love my sweet boy!
