Our Li'l Angel :o)

Li'l Grant is growing! He went for his 2-month checkup this past Wednesday and weighed 10.8 lbs. The doctor said everything seems to be going fine. He was a little concerned about his continuous acid reflux and spitting up. He suggested we try Reglan, 1/2 ml every 6 hrs. We have been giving him this ever since and can't tell if it is helping just yet. We hope with time this will get better. However, this doesn't seem to bother him much! He gets fussy sometimes in the late afternoon, but other than that, he's still smiling and giving everybody BIG grins! He is such a sweet, happy baby and we continue to be blessed by such a gift from God. :o)

Days gone by...

Jonah & friends at IBC Dayschool in 2004 :o)

Our 1st Baby Boy turns 13!

Where did the time go????

More sounds!

Yes, Grant is not only making more sounds, but even flat-out giggling. :o) He still loves it when people talk to him. When we stroke his sweet little cheek, he just breaks out into the cutest little sounds you ever heard! We still spit-up like crazy, but we're just praying that goes away very soon. He had his first touch of cereal this past week. He seemed to like it. :o) Last night (Thursday night), he slept from 10:30pm - 6:30 am! His big brother Jacob is having his 13th birthday tomorrow. Oh my, how did that happen?! He also had his first encounter with his Motion and Music Jungle Gym (video attached). Boy, did he love it! It's such a joy to watch him grow everyday. We are so blessed to have this opportunity. God is good all the time, and ALL THE TIME, God is GOOD! May you be blessed today. :o)

A favorite Mother's Day gift

My first Mother's Day gift from little Grant! The "bumble bees" and "flowers" are his sweet fingerprints! I pretty much lost it when the Mobberly nursery teachers gave it to me. :o) What a gift little Grant continues to be. Thank you, Lord!

Let it be told...I'm 2 months old!

Our little miracle Grant turned 2 months old on Mother's Day! A coincidence? Not at all, it's God's sweet touch. :o) He is trying so hard to talk to us; it's just a matter of time. We are most pleased that he no longer has a fit when we change his diaper and his clothes! What a big boy. :o) His Nona B came to Kindermusik with him this past week, as you can see in the picture. They were having a grand time with paper plates and fun music. He really got the royal treatment, AND, the other mommies weren't as afraid that their toddlers would step on him! His little belly and long torso are about to "pop" out of his 0-3 month clothes. I think it's time to move up a size! His constant smiles are a treat. There's no other feeling than to see a smile like that at the start of the day! We'll be going to the doctor for our 2 month checkup in the next few days. He was 9 lbs. 11 oz. last week. We wonder what the weight will be now! Oh, and I found my thumb too!

Baby Grant spoke his first sounds this past week! Donnis was singing to him and he tried to join in. :o) Just a little "ooh", but it was music to our ears!! Everyone keeps telling us how he's grown. You can really tell in his face. He's gotten quite accustomed to hearing shouts and cheers at his big brother's baseball games! However, sometimes, he says "enough, it's lights out for awhile", as you can tell in the attached picture! We had 2 bibs made with each brother's team's name and player number on them. That way, when he spits up, he can still cheer his big bros on! Grant is still seeing a chiropractor about once a week, and even had a session with a pediatric masseuse to help with his acid reflux. He is still having a little problem with that, but it is better than it was. Daddy is still having so much fun holding, singing and playing with baby boy Grant. As Dad sad, "when he smiles at you, it just warms you up from head to toe!" We continue to be blessed by this miracle from God :o)
