What a Week!



This has been a whole different kind of week for us. We started out Sunday going to church. We visited a church in Forney for the first time and we already love it! We can't wait to go back. What a wonderful way to start the week.



Kenny found out on Monday that he was going out of town Tuesday through Thursday. So, we got things together and got him all packed up. Tuesday morning we noticed that Grant was congested and had a cough, but we didn't think too much about it. When Grant got up on Wednesday, the cough was real deep and sounded bad. So, I did what any good mother would do...I took him to the doctor! One chest x-ray later, he has an upper respiratory infection. Bless his heart! So, I stayed home with him the rest of the day trying to comfort him.



Wednesday was also JoAnn's birthday. Richard and JoAnn came out to the house and brought dinner. I so appreciated a little adult interaction. I really don't know how all the stay-at-home mom's do it! Grant has to stay out of daycare for the rest of the week, so JoAnn was so kind to offer to keep him at her house. I am so blessed to have her in my life.

Today (Thursday), I started a new Bible Study at work. It has been so long since I was in Bible Study that I am really looking forward to the weeks ahead. Grant ate his solids (squash) really good for me tonight. I have noticed that if I just hold the spoon out in front of him, he likes to dive for it! I can try to nudge his mouth open, but he likes to be in charge! Hmmm...this could be a sign of things to come.



Kenny will be home tonight and I am really looking forward to seeing him. It wasn't difficult at all taking care of Grant by myself, I just know that I don't think I want to do this by myself very often. I really enjoy our little family! I am glad that tomorrow is Friday. It's about time for this week to be over with!!!
