Picture "catch up" post

Peek A Boo everyone! Roman now rolls around front to back and back to front and rolls to get whatever he wants! In the picture below he was seeing his Grammy after she got back from her horse trail ride for a week! He missed her :)

These next four pictures are a series. For those of you that know Charli konw that he LOVES his soccer ball. Roman eyes it in this picture and Charli has no clue!

He's getting closer! Charli still has no clue :)



Face Off! Poor Roman was so close! Right before he got to it Charli pounced over there.
7 Months Baby!






Whitney and the kids got to babysit for me and have some bonding time with Roman!

















He loves his Duckie still!

Cutie!





I could kiss these all day long!

Everyone thinks he looks just like me in this picture :)

We get to go visit Granny now! She's 93 and is so stylin with her highlights!





Roman wearing his "peanut" onesie in honor of Aunt Hay Hay's peanut ;)

Love walking in on this :)

We had the hardest week ever! Roman got sick for the 1st time. Started with a cold and turned into a bad cough and an ear infection. Crazy mom took him to the Dr twice and when she said he had an ear infection I got teared up. It was so hard seeing my baby sick. There was nothing they could give him except Tynelol and he doesn't know how to blow his nose, so I used the Nose Freida on him. Its a device where you as gross as it sounds suck the snot out of him! There's a filter and they claim for it to be totally hygenic. As of today he's starting to feel better but its been a longggggg week. I would do anything for him not to be sick but I know its building his immune system yadayadayada. These next pictures I took when he was sick. Doesn't it hurt your heart too to see him pitiful?!







He even had little wrinkles under his beautiful eyes

As I've mentioned Aunt Hay Hay is pregnant!!!!! We had a fun little Guess the Gender Activity Evening at my house with the girls of the family. It was so fun!!! Just to go on the record, my guess is that she is having a girl. We did the chain over the belly, the draino test, the heartbeat, the intelligender, the chinese birth calender and all say GIRL! These are all really just for fun, and we would love either a boy or a girl and God knows just what they need!! This will be my parents 4th grandchild!



Elijah wanted to listen to the heartbeat :)

Aydia is a little Kiki and loves to listen to the heartbeat too!



Draino Test



This picure was taken right when we put the doppler on her belly! It was the first time for either of them or us to hear a heartbeat!!!! We all cried :)







Introducing Baby Dodson!!! I'm such a proud aunt already!!!! Isn't He/She so cute?!?

Roman went to his 1st friends birthday party. Landry was turning 1! Below is Leslie and her son Kailer

Happy Happy Happy Boy! Note his shirt reads "I Still Live with My Parents" :)














He loves to grab his toes and put them in his mouth now!

He loves rice cereal and otmeal!!! He eats 1 tablespoon in the morning and 1 at night





Waking Daddy up!



My little rockstar!












He got to meet his Aunt Amber!!! She brought us flowers every day we were in the hospital after we learned of Kaiya's passing. She also bought him his carseat andbreastpump! It was love at first sight for Roman as you can see!





Baby Graham came to visit! He isin our lifegroup with his parents Autumn and Wes



Roman and all his "friends"







Maya and Ryder came to visit!! Aren't they the cutest?!







At Kasiya's grave. He wouldn't take his eyes off her grave the whole time!

These are the same hands that I took some maternity pictures with when I was 12 weeks pregnant. Its ironic that they are at the cemetary where Kaiya is buried. I was overjoyed to take an "after" picture with my beautiful blessing! He is here because of prayers!!

The family gathered around Dustin's grandfathers grave at his 1 year anniversary of his passing. He had his hand in getting Roman here, so it was neat to have Roman with us!



Boppy time!







We took Roman to meet some of the staff at Advanced Reproductive! I cant count how many times I was in this waiting room crying tears and praying over and over that God would bless me with a baby. And that He did! We didn't get to introduce him to Dr. Le this day but he got to meet BT the receptionist!














































Sleeping like a big boy on his side!


This is my view every night right before I put him to bed :) Simply Beautiful!




































Stylin' PJ's!

















His "flirty face" Momma's hide your girls!!!















This is Leslie and her miracle vbaby Addison. Her husband and I are on the worship team together at our church. We prayed for each other for a child and God answered both of our prayers!!!! She is so beautiful!!!































Roman had his 1st sleepoever with friends :) Landry and Hayden spent the night atour house with their mommies and we had a blast!















"Don't look at my belly!"





Dustin went to California on business for 5 days and didn't get to see Roman! I dothink it was harder on DAddy...he missed Roman so much and Roman changes so much everyday! Roman was sure happy to see Daddy though as you can see!













These were taken at the Dr's office Before his shots! He was so happy BEFORE....



The lady who took Kaiya's pictures offered to take Romans pictures! She did an amazing job!!!


























I got this one blown up to a 30 by 20 and put it in his nursery over his crib :)



































These next pictures were done by Paige Walker Photography and she did an amazing job too!!



My FAvorite!!!

He looks like his Grandad here :)








Hope you enjoyed!!!
