4 Month Dr Visit

Greyson had his visit a few hrs ago and it went as well as can be expected, given he had to get shots! Poor little lamb.. He was a bit fussy waiting on the Dr. (they were running late, a first for us with them!) and once he got evaluated and we talked about our concerns (We suspect he has allergies, since we both suffer from them pretty badly) she said the nurse would be in for his shots. While we waited he played with Daddy and was so happy! I felt bad since I knew what was coming!! :( Luckily she did them pretty quickly and we got to snuggle him right after and he mostly calmed down.. The good thing is it was already his nap time so he went right to sleep as soon as he was buckled in the car. So his official stats are:

Age: 4 months 6 days
Weight: 16lbs 5oz
Height: 24 3/4"

And this is from today while we were waiting...

Waiting to see the Dr. I'm sleepy leave me alone Daddy!

 
Playing with Daddy waiting on my shots, What are shots anyway?
OH... That's what shots are.. SON OF A #$(%(@!





Next visit is 6 month visit, this kid needs to stop getting older, I can't take it he will be walking before I know it, ack!!!

4 Months Old

Greyson is 4 months old today!! We had a busy day today getting his room rearranged and adding more of his big boy toys since he is more active now.. He is doing so well and we are so blessed! He goes to the Dr. on Monday so I will have his stats then, but I just know our little man has grown, I can see it and feel it when I hold Mr. Chunk! Here are a few pictures from the last two weeks, more to come next week after his appointment!





ENJOY!

Almost A Year Ago


 We transferred two grade AA embryos to our sister-in-law Christy.. I cannot believe it has already been a year since we traveled to Texas and stayed for a month of IVF cycling, endless needle sticks, dates with the "weeny wand" for many ultrasounds and the best IVF cycle I have ever had! Time has gone by so fast it's crazy... We could have never guessed that that cycle would bring us the most precious baby boy.. We are so thankful for this last year. Greyson will be FOUR months old in a few short days! It's hard to believe that we went from this:


One of these is Mr. Greyson Kane

To this!

I lost the fight in the NAP WARS!
We feel so blessed and thankful to have come through the years of trying, even with all the ups and downs.. It was all worth it to be able to see this every day..

So what's next for us you ask? Oh plenty.. But that's a story for another day :)

We Had A Good 15 Year Run

But now our time has come to an end... No, not my blog.. Me and my microwave! Yes, you read that right.. I have had my microwave for 15 years! I have used it almost everyday of those 15 years too. I have had it longer than I have been with hubs.. In one of our many moves, I lost a little leg wheel, so it has a little lean (hey, it gives it character!) and as of late to door now sticks when you try to open it.. (charge to 250..CLEAR!) I knew it was time to let it go when the door was getting stuck more often.. (charge to 300! CLEAR!!!) On a whim I went to Lo.we's to see what my options were.. I am a cheapskate y'all and it's hard to get me to part with my money! BUT... Lo.we's had one that matches my appliances on SALE!! And we all know I love a good sale.. Annnd, it was the over-the-range mount, eeeek!! I have been wanting one of those since we bought our house! But since nothing (major) was wrong with my old one, I waited.. So... I got one today! I was so sad to wipe old faithful down and take it off my counter.. We had a good run you and I...

Old Microwave.. 15 year run.. R.I.P. old friend!

   
New Microwave.. I love it!

So that's the story of my microwave... Don't go away sad.. Enjoy these to cheer you up!

Too small for my walker still, but I love the toys!



Yes, my sandals ARE camo style!
 
My outfit says it all.. Truckload of CUTE!
Yes... Yes she did make me wear this on Valentines Day.. Slap her, I'll wait....

Life Gets In The Way

HEY!!!! I sure have missed you guys! I know, I did a drive by post and never came back. It took forever for us all to recover from the sickness of 2013! Everyone is well again and life has been getting in the way of blogging.. Greyson is doing great and getting so big! He is 3 months old today!! I can't believe it's been 3 months already.. Time is flying by so quickly, it's insane! The stats on our big boy are: Age: 3 mos...weight: 16lbs...height: 24.5 in"... Eating: still only taking between 3oz-5oz every 3hrs, most times it's right around 4oz.. Sleeping? Meh. Most nights he has been going down at around 11-11:30 and then waking up at 4:30am to eat and be changed, BUT the last few nights, he has been waking up at 7:30am!!! 

It started Friday night while he was having his first overnight away from us. He stayed at Pop Pop and Nana's house so Mommy and Daddy could have an evening out for their 11th wedding anniversary! I was so sad for him to be away from us, but we managed to make it through a movie and dinner. He was SO happy to see us it was so cute! But anyway so back to the sleep thing.. Yeah, so he decided to be a perfect Angel for them after I warned them that he would be waking up at O dark thirty, he totally made me look bad,LOL!!

My Step-mom called me and told me how he did and I was shocked. Lo and behold come Sunday morning I jumped up and looked at my clock and sure enough it was 7AM! Little stinker was playing me for quite some time it seems.. So now we are working towards making this a permanent thing. We will see how it goes.. 

Hubs and I had a great Anniversary date, just what we needed.. We had been neglecting our relationship and focusing all of our attention on the nugget, so this was a great way to get back to being us... It was also fun to get all gussied up, lol... The big brothers are doing their own thing and will help me out with their baby brother when I ask, gotta love having helpers!

Here is a picture of Greyson from today AND some from this past month!
The one of me is from Saturday on our 11th anniversary. We had a nice date night. Hope y'all enjoy the pictures and I will try my best to update more frequently than once a month!
































Happy 3month birthday to me!
