Grayson's Birthday Weekend

My big boy is now 3 and I feel like it has gone so fast. He had a pretty awesome birthday weekend. I didn't throw a big party like I normally do instead we had cake on Friday with his cousins because they were leaving for Florida the next day on his actual birthday. I went simple pizza wings and a cake from our local bakery. I sat the whole time and rested and he had a blast so that is all that matters. Saturday my sister came and picked him up to go to story & paint time at a local pottery shop. They found out it was his birthday and even had a balloon at his chair. She took him for cookies and donuts and he had a blast. After his nap we headed to bowling. We asked him about 3 weeks ago what he wanted to do for his birthday and he kept saying bowling. So that's what we did and he had a blast. I sat and watched and then after one game we had pizza and cake and presents! Then played another game before heading home. It was such a

A few days before you turn 3

Grayson, Sweet sweet boy you will be 3 this Saturday and I'm till in awe that it has been 3 years since they handed you to me. That was a life changing moment for sure. You are such a kind boy. Don't get me wrong you have your moments of frustration but you really have a kind heart. You know when mommy needs a hug or kiss or snuggle. We have a bond baby boy, a strong one that will never be broken. Talking to you is like talking to a grown up until you say things like "let me fink about it" and then I just die laughing. You are defiantly a parrot. For example when I want you to really hear me I will say "Grayson look at me" just so I know I have your attention. The other day I was reading something and you said "Mommy look at me" and I could not stop laughing but what you had to tell me was so important. You are becoming more independent everyday. You can now undress yourself 100% and I would say you can dress yourself about 90% butt

30 week bumpdate

How far along? 30 weeks Total weight gain:  51 pounds Maternity clothes?  Yes Stretch marks?  Yes and it is what it is. Sleep:  I have suffered from insomnia almost every night this past week. I finally broke down on Friday night and took Benadryl and got a solid 10 hours of sleep. It was heaven. But the next night I was up from 11:00 to 1:30 because I could not get comfortable. Someone said this is all in preparation for not getting sleep once the babies are here so I guess I will be very prepared.     Best moment this week : The warm weather. We had days in the upper 60’s and we got to spend some time outside. Miss Anything?  Being able to pick up Grayson. My Dr. told me that I can no longer do this and I get it because of the weight but man it breaks my heart to tell him no.   Movement:  They are like shape shifters. My stomach looks deformed most of the time because they are all to one side or going opposite directions.   Food cravings:  Cadbury c
