A Grell Tale

We are so glad you have taken time to check in on our lives. First and foremost, God is the author of this story. Every thing we do, say, and have is His.
Jared and I have been together since 1998, and married since 2003. After four long years of trusting God, he blessed us on August 1, 2009. Balen James is the most "perfect-for-us" little man in the world! We LOVE being parents and just can't get enough of him.
I love to spend time sharing our story with you, and I truly enjoy getting to hear your comments as well! We hope you enjoy watching our family grow. Thanks for stopping by.

29 Week Ultrasound Pics

Last Wednesday I went to have an ultrasound to check my placenta. We found out at 18 weeks that I have placenta previa. I have been on pelvic rest and not allowed to lift anything since. They did this ultrasound to see if the growth of the baby has caused the placenta to move out of the way. I still haven't heard any results. I am going to call tomorrow, if they can't tell me then I will find out at the doctor on Wednesday.

It was AMAZING to get to see Balen. We got to see a lot of good shots of his face. The tech would hold still on his face and we watched him blink quite a few times, stick his tongue out a couple times, and suck in fluid. It looked like his little mouth was talking. I loved getting to see him. Here are the three best pictures we got. This first one is of his little foot.
This is a creepy shot of his little face looking straight at us. His eyes didn't look like he had on sunglasses when we could see him blinking.
This is my favorite! I love precious little profile pictures. I can't wait to meet him and see what he really looks like. They did tell us that he weighed 2 lbs. 13 oz. He is probably already 3 lbs. by now.
