Maternity Pics!
My wonderful friend Erin (who has taken Grayson’s pictures a few times) was so sweet to take my pictures this week. I just wanted to document this special time (and the fact that my belly is SO much bigger this pregnancy- ha!). It was FREEZING on Monday when we took them, which I think is…
Quick Update
Thanks to all who checked in with us and prayed about Grayson’s genetics appointment this morning.
