4-Month Pictures

We had 4-month pictures made and the photographer said he was one of the cutest babies she had ever seen.  Of course, I have to agree.

Update

WOW!  What a crazy last few months.  Life has been great but really busy.  Garrison is doing great - he is such an answered prayer and he is so amazing!  I have decided not to go back to my teaching job.  I just didn't want to make the drive everyday and I didn't want to leave Garrison for that long during the day.  I am praying the perfect opportunity opens up for me - maybe part-time - hoping for a private school.  Jon takes the Bar Exam the end of July.  We are counting the days and we are so ready for it to be over!  I love him but he is an overachiever. :(  He is studying his tail end off - I know he will do great.  I miss him!

Garrison has his 4-month check-up coming up.  I hate those shots!  Praying everything goes good.  It's always fun to see how much he weighs and his "stats".  He has always been very "healthy".  His head size, height, and weight are almost off the charts.  The first few weeks was really hard - he had colic and being new parents we didn't always know if we were doing the right thing.  A lot of people and even family gave us lots of advice.  We did really well and didn't take it. :)  They only meant well I know.  I also read about 20 baby books (really at least 20) and we frequented our pediatrician the first few weeks.   Those two things helped the most.  I also know some amazing moms who I asked lots of questions (you know who you are).  So it was very nice at first couple of check-ups to hear how well he was doing.

Newborn Pictures

We had newborn pictures taken a few weeks ago.  I can't believe my baby is 6 weeks old!

Life forever Changed

Our life has forever changed a little less than 2 weeks ago.  I will post more later but I just wanted to post a picture of our precious little boy.  My labor was fast and went well.  Our little boy is healthy and strong.  God has blessed us and we thank him.  We have prayed for this little miracle, Garrison York Lindsey, for over 3 years.  God had a plan for us and he is perfect.  We thank God everyday for him and we pray he continues to grow healthy and strong. 

Nursery Pics and Update

Garrison's room is ready. :)  We are so excited about meeting him soon.


Our doctor's appointment went well.  On a positive note, my doctor said my cervix was "very soft" and she was happy about that.  I have also dropped.  Still not dilated....  but I am still 50% effaced.  Praying to be dilated next week.  Right now, our induce date is Feb. 17 - that's 2 days after our due date.  That would mean our doctor would be there - which is a huge plus.  I would really like for labor to happen on it's own but it's it is completely in God's hands. 

Up Next:
39 Week Appointment
Feb. 10 *This will probably be our last appointment before Garrison*

Please continue to keep baby and I in your prayers.  We really appreciate them.  Please pray that I am dilated some by my next appointment.  I know God has a plan for all this. :)  Please also pray that baby and I continue to be healthy and strong.  When we go into labor, please pray we have a safe and healthy one. :)
