3 Months Old!

Grace is growing up so fast! Now she's all smiles and giggles. She loves to "talk" and will carry on a long conversation....if only we knew what she was trying to say! :-) Here's our 3 month old girl!

She wasn't exactly thrilled at first...


She was more interested in eating her shirt...


She finally started paying attention to the camera!


Our little girl's grin!


Her personality is hilarious!

She's also started to chew A LOT. She can even sometimes bring her toys up to her mouth, but the hand eye coordination is a work in progress.

Still working on the coordination :-)


We're trying the bumbo. She likes it!


She started playing with her feet too!


She also sleeps in her own room at night now! That was more of an adjustment for us than Grace but it's going well. I was afraid I would end up walking over to her room every hour to check on her, but thankfully I only do that occasionally! I'm probably a little overly paranoid, but with so much talk about baby breathing problems sometimes I just feel better if I can make sure she's ok.

Our Clemson girl!


Grace and Dad always have fun!

Both sets of grandparents were able to visit recently too. We had such a great time! It was so fun to get to see everyone and of course it's always great to see reactions to Grace and how much she has grown!

Grace was all happy til I got the camera out!

Last weekend all 3 of us went with the high school seniors at church to the Converge Conference in Myrtle Beach. It was a really fun (slightly crazy with a 3 month old) time of getting to watch students learn about compassion and really help them understand how they can serve God in college. I (Tiffany) attended Converge all through college and the conference really marks some major turning points in my life. Converge is where I learned about serving God and not following the world's desires for fame and fortune. It is where I realized that following God was more important than my want for success. It also happens to be the place where I got plugged in at Camp McCall which definitely changed my life! It was really neat to be able to go with a group of students who hopefully had some great spiritual awakening over the weekend!

So we have certainly been busy! It is very time-consuming to be parents and we are learning as we go. Work is going pretty well for both of us and we are finally starting to figure out how to juggle work and home. We're nowhere close to figuring it out completely but we are getting there! Continue to pray for us as we are figuring out our jobs and parenting. It's quite a challenge and really has helped us rely on God even more....there's no way we could even attempt to do it alone!
