15 weeks and growing




I had MGC's 3 month pictures taken...closer to 4 months. We had a great time taking them. My good friend Angela took them for me. MGC wet on her drape and I felt so bad, but babies will be babies! Enjoy the pictures.

GOD'S LOVE IS AMAZING!

I don't think until I had a baby of my own did I truely, truely know how much God loves me. I was emaild a video by Brad Paisley and Sara Evans entitles "New Song." A Stacy and I watched this video we both cried. I finally knew what unconditional love really is. My husband I and spoke about how much we love our little MGC. We loved her instantly. We even agreed our love for her is different than our love for eachother. We found things in each other to love and that we love very much, but with a child it is different. My husband, already having two beautiful girls knew this love. I am just finding it. God loves us MORE than we love our own children. We are so unworthy, yet he gave His only Son for us. How can I not give my all to Him. I am really blessed to have wonderful step-daughters and now my own. I can't imagine giving any of them to anyone for any reason, yet God gave his Son for the sinners so that we might be saved. WOW is how I can sum it all up! Hope you are blessed as Stacy and I were!

A LEARNING EXPERIENCE


One morning I was getting ready for work when I heard a cry outside of my kitchen window. I began to investigate and found a baby squirrel that had fallen from its nest. It was so small. We kept it outside where other animals could not get to it. K gave it milk with one of her doll baby bottles. It lived, to our surprise, about 4 days without its mother. K loves animals and one day wants to be a vet. This was a great way to work on her skills, especially washing her hands. (Even though she wasn't allowed to touch it!)

LOVE THE GRANDMA'S



MGC spends a lot of time with her Granny Linda (Stacy's mom) and her Great-Grandma Gladys (Karen's G-ma). She enjoys her time with them both. Recently she went to her great-G's 80th b-day party. She was really a great baby that day. Granny Linda is the lucky one to keep MGC when momma works.
