I Promise I Can Talk About Other Things Than Grady and Adoption...But, It's Not Gonna Be This Post
I feel like I need to post again just so my "pissy rant" isn't the first post people (me) see anymore. Now just because I say that, does not mean that I regret one word of what I wrote....I don't. I just sound very angry, I was at the time. But, I'm all good now so I can't have that as the first thing I see when I pull up my blog. It gets me irritated every time. Seriously, the balls of some people!!
On to more happier things....
My Grady love is 7 months old now. I can't believe it! Where has the time gone? Every time I pull up his blog and see all of his very newborn pictures in the header and sidebar, I can't believe he was ever so small. His little personality is so cute and funny. The majority of the time he is very easy going. However, he is very stubborn already. I'm scared for what the future holds. My Simon is also very stubborn...so I've seen what my sister has had to deal with. I thought it was funny then, now I think that payback is gonna be hell (Have I mentioned lately how much I miss my Simon and Helene? At times it hurts. I still have a hard time looking at pictures of them....I'm pathetic, I know. I miss my sister too...it's still weird they aren't 20 minutes away). Now that he is full blown crawling (meaning no army crawl....full on crawling) he WILL get what he wants. It's very funny to watch. He says "da da da" all day long and on volume 10. People don't believe me because when we're out with friends he'll just sit and watch....but when it gets quiet or we're at home, he is LOUD!! He fits into our families very well. He is also already stronger than me. He beats me up on a regular basis. Brad thinks this so very funny. I'm afraid for the tantrum stages because his strength honestly freaks me out. Now for the mushy stuff....(Mary be prepared to throw up in your mouth)...I love being his Mom. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of his Rachel and love her more and more for the decision she made. I have a hard time wrapping my head around it still. Motherhood is all I thought it would be and more...so far. I feel more happy and more like me than I have in years. It's funny that my little boyfriend (Grady) fulfilled that in me.

lovely post, my friend... i especially loved the mushy parts :) xo
I'm so happy for you! I love the mushy parts too. Grady is one cute little guy and you and Brad are two lucky parents!
Take Care,
JoLynn
I cannot wait for the text that Grady tackled you in the store! :)
BTW, I think our kids should get married. I'm listening to a book right now where the main character and her husband have known eachother their ENTIRE lives, but didnt fall in love and get married until they were 32. I think we'd both be good with that.
I'm so happy you get to experience this part of life. It is by far the best! Lets get together.
Being a Mom is the best- even when they talk back and fight I still enjoy being a Mother and I'm sure you will too :)
Holly,
In response to Yanette's blog, I hope you don't think I am directing anything at you (I don't usually read your blog by the way, I just don't have your e-mail!) I think you are a great person, and a wonderful mommy. I enjoyed having you as a teacher in Relief Society, and I look forward to seeing you and your family when you come back to visit. I hope all is well in your new home.
i read your last post first and thought this is my girl, she says it like it is.
then, i read this post and i thought, this is her too.
this is why i love you because you encompass both.
lets hang out.
