Graham's One Year Pictures

Graham doesn't turn one year old until May 25 but I wanted to do these a bit early so we would have them ready for his birthday party. He didn't smile as much as usual because he was so interested in all the new items to explore. He did great though and we still can't believe he's been our's for almost a year. Time slow down please! I'm going to go cry now because my baby boy is disappearing. 

He kept trying to escape!

The antenna is crooked where he grabbed it!

This rocking chair has had four generations of babies sitting in it on Brad's side of the family

So happy our boy loves books!

He's come a long way since his day as a 5 day hatching embryo 

We tried a smash cake but he doesn't put anything in his mouth. Oh well!

The O ended up in the cake!

Typical Graham expression :)

Twins!

Making Baby Davis the Sequel/ Graham is 11 Months!

Our sweet boy is 11 months today. I have an equal amount of pride and sadness when I think about that in only one month Graham will be a year old. He has come so far in the last few months with his gross motor skills. He can army crawl quicker than you can run to keep him away from cords, pull up on his knees and even crawled 4 steps just today! He loves balls, music, pushing buttons, reading books, repeating words and sounds and still thankfully LOVES to sleep. We have never felt more blessed in our lives. The 25th is a big day in the Davis family. Just a month ago to the day we were at the fertility clinic with our gestational carrier, Katie, to see if she can help make Graham a big brother soon! Everything went perfectly at her med screening and our doctor said we could begin meds with her next cycle. Wouldn't you know that she started her meds today on the 25th!

Katie and me at NFC for her med screening. The boys were here too. 

So Katie will be on birth control pills, Lupron, Estrogen and Progesterone and then the transfer will be the week of June 10! Please pray that this little one will survive the thaw and snuggle in tight for 9 months. If it takes then the due date will be in late February so go ahead and pray for our sanity as we will have two kids under 2 for a few months! haha!!! Seriously, we are ready for the challenge and can't think of a better reason to be super tired.

Got 'em!

Thank you Katie. Ugh that's a lot of needles

Today's menu

We will keep you updated of course, whether it sticks or not. I have been open about our journey for 10 years and so I owe it to this little one to do the same for him/her. No matter what happens he/she will always know they were loved from the start. <3

Graham had his first Easter! After the Easter bunny visited him, he went to church with us and his Gran Randall then met his Davis family at Calhoun's for lunch. It was a fabulous day!

Here he is meeting a few of his recent gross motor milestones. Next up, first birthday!!!!!

Happy 11 month birthday!

This one just because he's a doll

Pulls up on his knees
