Happy 6th Birthday, Grant

Man, time sure does fly. I remember it like yesterday. Bringing Grant home and letting Macy meet him. He was so tiny and needed his Mommy for EVERYTHING. Grant is now in his 2nd year of school. He loves to swim, do gymnastics, play baseball and soccer. Play with his brother and ride his big-wheel. He is getting tall and even eating more! What a relief! I have waited 6 years for this! Grant is so lovable and friendly and he makes friends easily. He even still gives me hugs without me asking for one. I love that boy. I can't wait to see what God has in store for him and his life.

Pregnancy #4

December 20th, 2011, I found out that I was pregnant. I called my Dr and they wanted me to get labs done....so, I did. They were low and I also started taking progesterone by mouth. I was so excited and went about a week and a half with everything ok. On New Years Eve, I started bleeding, but just a little. I called the on call Dr on January 1st in the evening. She wanted me to get labs done the very next morning. January 3rd, the nurse called me and told me that this is 99% a miscarriage due to the lab levels. She told me to take a home pregnancy test in a week and if it was positive, I was to call them back. On Monday, January the 9th, I took a test and it was +!! I then called them and Dr. Nelson wanted to see me. I had more labs done before I went to see her. I didn't get any answers yet, although, she said that 1 of 3 things is happening. 1. I have miscarried and still have some tissue that needs to come out, which will on it's own. 2. This is an topic pregnancy. 3. I was pregnant with twins and have lost 1. Talk about roller coaster on my emotions!!! I go tomorrow morning for more lab and if the HCG has risen higher than 200, which is what it was 2 days ago, then I am to have an US to see what's going on. If the number has lowered, then it is a miscarriage. I will be so glad when tomorrow gets here so that I can finally know what it going on. Monday was the 7 week mark if I am pregnant.

Grant in school for the 2nd year.

Grant is doing well in school....he is in Pre-K for the 2nd year and I am sure glad that he is. He totally gets everything this year! He had numerous friends, but the ones that he talks about are Luke, Declan and Cameron. It's the four of them and they are so cute! Grant loves to help the teacher and any way that he can. They have this Walk Run program and Grant did a whole marathon and more last year....his teacher told me that this year, he would rather play with his friends. Grant is almost 6 and growing and so smart. Grant can beat us all in the game, Memory. He loves that game and we try to have a game night once a week here at home. The boys really enjoy game night.

Stephen is in Pre-K

Stephen absolutely loves school! He goes in the afternoon at Quail Creek and he has some friends that he talks about all the time. Jordan, Juachin, Luke and Oscar. He is rhyming words really well and even know what a syllable is. We had a 3 1/2 week christmas break and almost daily, Stephen would ask, "Is today a school day?" The students are assigned to different jobs and Stephen likes to be the "line ender" so that he can turn the lights out. He has been writing his name for about a month now....he does well, except for the "S"....it's backwards. I'm sure by the end of the year, he will have that down.
