Welcome to our family blog!

Kyle and I have had several people ask us for updates on Ford, so we decided to create a place where frliends and family can go to see what our little Ford is doing. I hope to be able to post often, but Ford will determine that.

Kyle and I feel so blessed. The Lord has given Kyle and I so many gifts. We are blessed with a wonderful home, great friends and family and all the things needed to live. We are most thankful for the latest gift he has given us... our beautiful Ford! Ohh how our lives have changed since he has come into this world. He has taught Kyle and I soo much. I knew Kyle would be a great Dad since we were in college and watching him with our nephew Jackson. He was the first baby Kyle had been around. Kyle took to Jackson and Jackson to him. They still have a special relationship. Kyle has been great with all of our 5 neices and nephews. He has had some practice before Ford, but nothing truely prepares you for your own son.

I have seen a new love in Kyle. A love for his son. It is amazing to know that my love for Kyle can continue to grow stronger. When I see him with Ford and Ford looks at him and gives a smile and laughs I can't help but smile. Everyone says how a child changes your life, but you really don't understand until it happens to you. You never think it is possible to love something or someone so much!! It is truly God's grace to allow us experience this. Again, I say how blessed we are!

I will put pictures up of Ford's latest accomplishment....pushing up on his arms...sometime this week! He looks so big doing it. As you will see in some of the pictures I will post he has not lost any hair, in fact his hair is growing longer! I don't think I am going to be able to wait until he is a year to cut it. He is becoming more aware of his surroundings. I think he may be showing signs of missing Mom. In this past week we have have two times when people have come over and hold him and him getting upset when they get him. He is getting better with his crying. I think him getting on a good sleeping and eating schedule has helped along with his new medicine for reflux. He is now loving laying on his back and looking around. He really loves it when I stay and talk to him. He also at the moment enjoying his jumparoo. If all else fails he loves going outside. I guess he gets that from me. I lived outside when I was younger. I still would much rather be outside than inside. Well I guess that is all for updates right now. I will post again soon.
