I cannot believe my precious little baby boy is 4 years old! I am so proud of him, but at the same time my heart aches to realize that he is growing up so fast! Today, four years ago, I held him and ours eyes met for the first time--I remember it like it was yesterday-unconditional love! Grayton was such a suprise and a blessing! I am so thankful to God that He has a plan for us, and He is in control, not us! I thank God every day for giving Jason and I this precious little man whom I love and adore with all of my heart! Children are truly gifts from the Lord! Thank you, Lord for this precious little person who has touched my heart in so many special ways!

OUR ADDICTION!!

OUR ADDICTION!!
After the birth of Grayton, Jason and I began running and became highly addicted!! I soon made my first jogging stroller purchase, The Tike Tech all terrain single jogger. It was wonderful until I needed another seat for Riley Kate. I got this Dreamer Design off of ebay, and I love it! I call it my freedom and my sanity because I can load up the kids and go running whenever I feel like it! The kids love to stroll. They usually ask to go. We have run several races just for fun--Delta Jubilee 5K, Juke Joint Festival 5K, St. Jude 1/2 Marathon, Double Decker 10K, 300 Oaks 10K, etc. We love to run and if there is a race we can make it to, we'll run it!! We are running about 4 to 5 miles a day now with long runs of 7 to 12 miles on the weekends!

A LITTLE HOBBY OF MINE

A LITTLE HOBBY OF MINE
Since Grayton's 1st birthday, I have ventured out a bit and started baking and creating my kid's birthday cakes each year. Also, I am the homeroom mother for Grayton's class, so I am trying to get creative with my baking. I am not very good at it, but it is so much fun!! If anyone has any new cute ideas, share them with me.
