His plan for Paisly Grace: How Long Has it Been

Wow...I haven't written in quite a while. I was thinking this morning that I was going make time to write today and then thought how I would start this post out. I was going to start by apologizing for not writing in so long, but I cannot apologize for that. I cannot apologize for being so consumed in the life of the blessing God has given us. I work long hours at my job then come home to spend the last hours of my day caring for Montgomery and spending time with my little family, so no apologies here. I will however update you on our little butter bean. Andrew took her to the doctor this past friday (she has her first cold...which I hate because you can do basically nothing for an infant with a cold.) She weighed 13lbs 8oz and is 26 1/2in long. Yes I know. This child has grown 6 1/2 inches in three and a half months...really. I cannot believe how much our lives have changed by having our two little girls. I absolutely love the man my husband has become. He is a daddy. Not just a father but a Daddy who is completely wrapped around his little girl's finger. I love watching him with her, and there is no doubt that she is a complete daddy's girl. When he walks in the room and speaks her head is whipping around to find him and when she does this adorable grin takes over her whole face. I would say that I am jealous of how smitten she is to her daddy, but I cannot. I know how special it is to be a daddy's girl.

Her first halloween was wonderful, it was so much fun making her costume. I want to make that a tradition, that I make her costumes, well I want to do it as long as I can, until she wants a store bought one. I enjoy making things for her just like my mom did for me. She was a Zebra for halloween and I must say she was the most adorable Zebra I've ever seen!

I can say nothing except that I cannot thank God enough for the blessing He has given us. I don't know who or where either of us would be if it weren't for Him giving us Paisly Grace and the blessing which she entailed and then to bless us again with another beautiful little girl. It is unimaginable. Andrew and I were talking last night about how we want to raise Montgomery to be a Godly child. We talked about how easy it is to cling to God in troubling times then to drift away when things are good again. After we lost Paisly it was so comforting to be so close to God and now that we have Montgomery we want to stay that close to Him. We want to set the example to Montgomery that we need to have a close relationship with God not only in troubled times but during good times as well. I'll leave you with some more pictures of our little Montgomery and some from this years 'Walk to Remember'.
