being mom

Being mom means that you usually eat dinner once its cold.  And what you eat, usually gets cut in half cause you are the one to share with the little one(s).  Sometimes you forget to eat breakfast/shower/pee cause someone else is a little more demanding than the need to eat/be clean/pee.  The songs that get stuck in your head are songs from Sesame Street, baby einsteins, veggie tales, etc... and you don't even know who the latest popular artists are.  Going somewhere after 8:00 is impossible because thats after/just before bedtime.  And we are never, ever, ever, ever in any of the pictures, cause we are ALWAYS the one taking those pictures.  That being said, I am extremely grateful to my friend Liz for taking pictures of me and Greyson!  I so treasure these sweet pictures!

Obligatory guilty blog post for not posting in so long

I suppose I don't feel a pressing need to post so often because I'm pretty sure that anyone who is reading this, pretty much sees everything big that is announced or posted on facebook.  Most of my favorite pictures that I would post on here, are usually posted on facebook first.  Well, in case theres anyone new... The year is almost over.  I am still trying to come to terms with the fact that it is 2013... so 2014 is kinda unimaginable for me at this point.  This year, we bought a home, celebrated a first birthday, celebrated family weddings, cheered on first steps, and made lots of new friends! Now, some cute pictures of Greyson by a christmas tree(thanks molly for having such a cute tree!)

8 months old

Well, there you have it.  Greyson is 8 months old now.  Crap.  Time is not slowing down at all.  He is getting so grown up!  He's well on his way to crawling, though he prefers to stand if you give him the choice.  He'll look at the cat if you say cat or meow, and he throws out the word da da da da da like its candy.  Once, he even looked me right in the eye and said "dada".   Little brat was rubbing it in my face that he hasnt mastered the "M" sound yet.  lol.  I had my first mothers day, and I know every single mother said the same thing, but I am so so so grateful for this little creature that made me a mother.  Its hard to believe and accept the fact that we are now responsible for someone so tiny who looks up to us.  I remember being tiny, and thinking my parents knew everything and could do no wrong.  Looking at it from their point of view, now that I'm in their place, they were just two humans, doing their best, ma...

Greysons One Month

Just catching up!  I can't believe how fast my baby turned one month old!  I also cant believe how much you can love such a small little person!  And I also can't believe how someone so small can make so much noise, have so much stuff and completely change everything you know about life so completely! At one month old, Greyson has/can... Started to gaze at things a little further away from him.  Especially lights Looks like hes almost smiling!  It'll happen soon! Has been to church once.  It was a little too much.  Mommy had to go home early with a screaming baby Has discovered that he loves to be rocked by daddy Has peed and pood on both mommy and daddy.  Though his favorite was when daddy was rocking him and his diaper didnt do his job causing daddy to jump up in shock... what a fun ride! Peed in his own face Stopped his super high pitched screech and started to cry a bit more like a regular baby sound Put up with mommy taking lots a...

Birth Story!

Image
Welcome to the world, Greyson Robert!  Born on October 18, 2012, weighing 7 lbs and 19 inches!  I seriously still cannot believe he's finally here and that he's all mine!  I mean, I guess I gotta share him with his dad too, but they actually let us take him home like it was no big deal!  Here is Greysons birth story!  It's really not too long! On October 17th, I woke up to my bloody show, which gave me this nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach, cause I know that means labor is coming soon!  I went to my doctors appt, which I already had scheduled, and he said I was at 2 cm, and my cervix was softening, so he guessed I'd deliver within 5 days.  I went grocery shopping for the week, and went home.  I was feeling tired, so I laid down for a bit, and then got up to start dinner.  I was in the kitchen in front of the stove when I felt a POP-GUSH, and just like that, my water broke.  I was a bit in shock before I sprang into action to ...
