Thank you, thank you, thank you!



We just love our little Grayson!  He is such a blessing in our lives and we feel so blessed to have this sweet spirit in our home!  I love newborn babies, they really are little angels sent from heaven.

Thank you to Grandma Stockdale for coming and taking care of us for nearly two weeks!  What a major adjustment to go from one baby to two!  It was such a blessing to have the extra help so that I could spend more one on one time with both Grayson and Bella.  Bella has been quite the handful since Grayson's arrival, partly due to teething and partly due to her whole world being changed.  She is coming around though.  We've also had some not so good things go on with Grayson while Grandma was here so it was SUPER great to have her to lean on when we were in a jam!  Thank you Grandma Stockdale, we will never EVER forget your love and generosity!!

Baby Grayson



Here is our sweet Grayson. I was all worried about being a mommy to a boy, but so far, he is just wonderful and I feel SO ABSOLUTELY blessed to have to wonderful babies!! Well, I guess Bella isn't a baby anymore, she is a toddler, but still she is SO much fun. I forgot (not that it has been that long) how much I love little newborns! I used to be scared of them until we were blessed with Bella but now I love 'em!
Dave has been absolutely great in taking care of all of us! Working so hard and getting a lot less sleep than me. He is a great daddy and it is so cute to see him with his children.
Bella has been doing well with him. She recognizes him as a baby and goes up to him and points and says "baby". But we have to tell her to be soft as she wants to pat him a little too hard. Bella just does her own thing, playing and what not. She's never been a huge on getting a lot of attention. She does love having people over and has been in heaven playing with her cousins!
If you cannot tell, I am one happy mamma. I absolutely adore my baby girl (who will always be my baby girl whether she likes it or not) and I cannot believe I have been so blessed with such a sweet baby boy.

Introducing . . .

Grayson Lee Stockdale! Born 6/1/2010, just 29 days early, no big deal, right?! He was 7 lbs 0.5 oz. He is doing fantastic! I feel like I've been hit by a bus, but I am sure that will pass :) Pictures to follow shortly!
