Mazy Grace – Week 2

April 5, 2015April 11, 2017

On Tuesday, Mazy had her 2 week check-up and we have one healthy little girl!

She is in the 99 percentile for height – well, actually, when you look at the chart, she is still off the charts! She weighed in at 8 lbs. 13 oz. and falls into the 73 percentile. Here is what the past week has looked like!

We had Mazy Grace’s newborn pictures taken by Abby – she is so incredibly talented! The first 2 pictures are just a sneak peak:

How precious!

Those eyes!

Mazy just LOVES her bath time with dad!

Dan’s mom came to help out last weekend:

My mom, sister, and her 4 girls came and visited this past weekend:

Never get sick of watching her sleep!

We have been SO BLESSED with having family here! Oh are we going to miss them! But we are thankful they are just a few states away. What love we have been given and Mazy has been SO LOVED by her cousins, aunties, and grandmas! So much to be thankful for!

My Crazy Husband…

Confession From This Mother’s Heart

Comparing. As a new mom, I am realizing more and more, the danger of comparing my child to others. My wise sister told me recently that every kid is different, as we were discussing the different milestones that her 4 girls went through and my sister-in-law said the same thing. Not that this was new…

Arms Filled

My arms and heart, so full. This past week, I have seen countless advertisements, facebook posts, and cards about Mother’s Day. My heart has been so overwhelmed with the thought of Mother’s Day, as I can’t help but feel so full of contentment, yet my heart ache at the same time. I am not sure…

Here’s To Another Year

A month ago, this maybe isn’t how I anticipated celebrating my 34th birthday, but this doesn’t surprise God. I remember thinking before my first surgery, that by my birthday, I wouldn’t necessarily be back to normal, but I would be far on the mend. I would be a week past my post-op appointment and hopefully…
