Grandmother meets her 4th Grandson

In April, Tim's mom came to visit and meet her newest grandson. It was love at first sight! We got so sidetracked at the airport we forgot to take a picture, but the one we got later was very sweet.

Grandmother and Grayson

 Tim had to spend a lot more time at work while Grandmother was visiting. I wish he had been able to spend more time with his mom, but at least she got lots of cuddle time with Grayson.
The time she was here I was still spending a good bit of time up with Grayson at night. Feedings still took a while and I was running out of placenta pills (which gave me tons of energy) so I was TIRED. Tina was such a blessing and would get Grayson in the morning when he woke up and play with him for me to get a few more minutes of sleep. Aaaaaah, it was wonderful for me and Grayson loved that one on one time with his Grandmother.

When Tina came to visit us during my pregnancy, she gave us this beautiful Willow Tree figurine to commemorate the time in our life. I love the Willow Tree pieces and was very excited to add this to our collection. Now that Grayson is here, Tina picked out two pieces from the Willow Tree collection to symbolize our new parenthood. I am thankful for these beautiful gifts & so proud that they represent our life now - as parents!

Aren't they beautiful?

Grayson loved spending time cuddled up with Grandmother, she took these sweet pictures of their nap together <3

See the little submarines on his pajamas?? Grandmother got those for Grayson and he is ADORABLE in them.

Couldn't you just eat these little toes up

Grayson was not originally a fan of bath time and it took all available hands to give him a bath. Once we discovered that a warm towel on the chest kept him warm and calm, Tina was able to get cute little pictures of bath time. Doesn't he look much more content??

I was still scared to bathe him alone, so once Tina went home and Tim was at work he hasn't had any more baths like this. Soon we started putting him in the shower with Tim & Grayson thinks that is so neat to have the water running on him!

Tina has a son (obviously) and she has 3 grandsons who live near her, so she has plenty of experience with boys!! It was so great to see her loving on her newest grandson and I so wish we lived closer so we could all spend more time together. But we are so glad that she was able to come visit us and we can't wait to go to Georgia to visit her!
