11 months
Happy 11 months Grish. Today Grish is 11 months old..He's doing so very much. He is talking more, he says momma, dada, bubba (our lab), uh oh, and hey. He's on the verge of walking. He actually took a couple of steps a few times but refuses to just take off. I think he's a little scared to. He's so big. I have no idea how much he weighs but I know he has to weigh close to 30lbs! haha..well maybe not, but when you are holding him it sure feels like it! He has such a cute personality. He loves to laugh. He loves to do this fake laugh that he thinks is so funny. He will look at you and go hahaha..and wait for you to do it back to him. He's so much fun. God I love my child. I don't know how I lived without him. |

December 21st.
Today marks the birthday of my girls. Three years ago I gave birth to two beautiful little angles. Every year is hard when this date comes around, but this year is a little harder. As I was rocking Grisham to sleep earlier, I realized for the first time exactly what I was missing when I lost the girls. I always kind of knew what it was, but until you actually have a living child to hold and rock and cuddle, you don't exactly get what you are missing. This year I got it, and boy does it hurt my heart to think of all I have missed by losing them. I miss them so much, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of them and what they would have been like, or how my different my life would have been had they lived. Although I now have the best little boy on the planet, it still doesn't take away the emptiness that I have and will always have when I think of my girls. I guess that's just one thing that will never change, no matter how much time goes by, or how many children I get to have, Anna and Sarah will always be my first babies, my miracle children. Happy birthday girls..I love you and miss you |

10 months old
My little fella turned 10 months old on Sunday! I can't believe he's getting so big! He has become quite the little personality! He's so cute. He loves to tell you no..and he will shake his finger at you..(wonder where he learned that!) He is still a full force of energy. He is always on the go. He's learning to associate words with their meanings. You can ask him where the light is and he will look up, or where the doggies are and he will look for them. He's also gotten into Elmo! Anytime he hears Elmo's voice on the TV he stops everything he's doing to see him. He also likes to watch Seseeme Street. We are now down to three bottles a day. I eliminated the wake up bottle. So he now gets a breakfast instead. He did really well on giving it up. I just have three to go and we will be bottle free! (god help us!) It's so much fun to watch him grow and to see how he is learning different things..Oh..and one more HUGE thing he is doing..he has started to put his face under water while he is in the bathtub! At first I was all frantic about stopping him, then I realized that he actually knows his limits on when enough is enough. I can't keep him from doing it! This kid has no fear! Maybe he will be an olympic swimmer one day! He loves the water! I can't wait to see what this month holds!

Our first Halloween as parents..
Kevin and I have waited a very long 8 years to be able to trick or treat with our own child. Every year we have participated with nieces and nephew, being the ones who are always eager to pull a trailer with hay and help the mommas and daddies get their kids to the door of the houses. I can't begin to tell you how amazing it was to pick out that special costume for MY child. How it felt to rush home from work and make sure he is dressed before dark, how it felt to have a picture of my child with my nieces and nephews, how it felt to take him to the door to be looked at and complimented on because of how cute he was in his costume. I now truly know how to celebrate Halloween..I get to celebrate it the best way possible, through MY child's eyes. I cannot ask for anything more. |
