Grateful!






 I am so grateful to be a MOTHER, I Know I am so LUCKY to be able to have children .
Today I played outside with Graycee in the nice weather while Ryker was sleeping.Now Graycee is taking her afternoon nap yes she still takes 2 naps she LOVES her sleep......... I am just sitting here blogging and singing to Ryker..He is just smiling at me!! { he is HAPPY as long as someone is holding him and giving him all the attention.}  
Ryker is 2 months now and lets just say it has had it's bumps in the road but I am so GRATEFUL that he is doing better and GROWING everyday!  His nurse came to our house the other day and he weighed a little over 11 pounds!  If you saw him you would never guess he had to spend a week in the nicu.
    

 Graycee is LOVING being a BIG sister. She really does help ALOT I ask her to get me diapers or wipes she goes right in and gets them for me, along with other things that she thought I might need .
  If Ryker is crying which is ALOT Graycee comes up and says oh buddy! She loves to hold him and touch his face,but when she is done she just pushes him away. 
  
 I am SO grateful that Mark works so hard so I can stay home and raise our children!  Mark is such a great dad. Graycee is in LOVE with her daddy! It just melts my heart when I see Mark with our kids. It just make me fall in love with him all over again. 
 Mark It has been a FUN ride so far and we only have eternity left!!

   Here are some fun pictures I took of the kids today! 
 Graycee 20 months 
 Ryker 2 months
