As I sat here going through all the pictures from both trips, it brought back so many memories and feelings. On one hand I was scared because I just became the mother of a 15 month old in the blink of an eye, but on the other hand, this was the moment I had been waiting for so long. I was <em>actually</em> a mother. To me, the gift of being a mother is the greatest gift I could have ever asked for. We were truly blessed to have such an amazing little boy enter our lives and change it forever. I almost can't remember what life was like before <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Bryson</span> came along. I now know why we had to go through that long, hard path of infertility that eventually led us on the road to adoption. It's because our son was in a crib in baby home #3 waiting patiently for us to arrive. When I watched Dr. Drew interview the girls on Teen Mom last week, he said that there is no love in the world like the love a mother has for her child. It immediately brought me to tears because it's so true. I didn't know it was possible to love another person the way I love <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Bryson</span>. </div><div> </div><div>When <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Bryson</span> woke up this morning, we gave him his newest Nesting doll, Bob the Builder and he proudly added it to the shelf of others. After work, we took him to get ice cream and told him many times it was his "Gotcha Day." Then on the car ride home he told us "my gotcha day." Yes, I almost cried again. Motherhood has made a very sensitive and emotional person. </div><div align="center"><br /><em><strong>1st trip:</strong></em></div></div><div></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436085601360571970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhC_BR9zBl4KSQtkEmB-VS-qO1XaRcP6GjDJRkz0_nUOxBgfWoMZuKuZKk3mVLSNfpokLOg-plC80RZ9LAxIwFdiWyBDtf3lH84tTIDL3zSAXX-e0rKOC-Prq3H9BcDem4wG8Yc1GOLoQ-M/s400/collage.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436085604142794002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV3p9VWG4uQiHLxUQbZu7aZE4ySHva8suGWnoVcroGtM2gfaJoLG7cGDvFFNs94sxZeFHFtAuf5_yd8Scr3B9paXlyyFBHBpv3_DueG5CtEqXL5uwrl_kH7wcupkFHOAnF3RqOyTHbnFQd/s400/collage2.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436085608620258994" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoSWK-75Ig6YlIqU3_ApOP4cUniggUeM-iFYoLBNcIFNA6AahbjNeT11DSoQ1jF73xQexwaRDmgi3Lhv53Z7c7X4RoSRFtcn7xH1W9FsgePDTdt5rnQPJjD7dFhKV6VbkP5e7JoMHBmwxB/s400/collage3.jpg" border="0" /> <div align="center"><em><strong>2<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">nd</span> trip:</strong></em></div><div><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436082935021712850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSvdPDTDo0HGYHQiyElUV5Z6PBkx-gizx2pEfbvQ7N5KiQAKhNn1RCxi7i7up9Z6w6cDUxRhnJeQZYSkt24MZO0ULa_-650URWJe8xHzULj4GeWg5s5JuyJJcLHnmE8FgX3w0woKy1He7h/s400/collage.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436082937797846930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDd04v8T9L8sC_ZEsqvDedoMKaYI4cLMeiqoymWH29mW2E4xvFM_HEZs1DGHq2v4k1tLP4aWrDFvUNriW1jqCXN32LsG6zv1FhZ6dMMNeiuAQbkcAR58BAzllDUOQJOBL1ts00zO5LzqvI/s400/collage2.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436082943771245858" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVdtCliSoplwV5L_RZfdFGRcnDKbc70RLutd7OX85CfwrSDIomYCqruUiZnSeQuP7iSY0nOKI74kq7o5N0VBQuojV2bqYPi-EeBec5sjoPnTpm-KO7e-Y4-6B1x0_EqsPnvOUlbeyBJslR/s400/collage3.jpg" border="0" /></div></div></div></div></div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436083340246516210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcLM5rP3JnZ4bLqX-npWkyhf7igJar6I6-98bByZPqNLP9C-ewug0TCe98RuoZYF55u4qgFGFMgjJ45HnndKQrJ0k-rKzLvMyjpBYaI1FUkc_k-SdfSSrSuZS2O_FEBTN8MLFslfHjVxLI/s400/collage4.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436083357455960002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjic7X4how1vPoprRywVdlNXS3V11PnXzvfL43jIGdHc36ftYhPZO7zlNG65tFeuH3wAtrcc3yD_pSIleTOQfOywrgTaabPOiXM5PIYBW08PaIcMdNM4TQSxP3dvMCdRRcBMIf9qYt4SB6g/s400/collage5.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436083362723556162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbPgb364kvO74Hyi2DgJBmJzIaNR5KHsFTonFkoFxLtNiu_10ejJIHOo7nvU4lDvTeg2BISaRgxovKfXhwjuokE4dQoXeQzzNPw3O9nmLOxMPmKsVAhoXx93EUDpAjF7tEniWLziPsiyZk/s400/collage6.jpg" border="0" /></div></div></div><br /><p>To watch <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Bryson</span> change and grow every single day has been both amazing and such a blessing.

Tonight our social worker is coming for our 2 year PPR. It's really hard to believe that in a little over a month, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Bryson</span> will have been with us for 2 years. Where has the time gone?!? <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Bryson</span> is doing amazing. I truly feel blessed to be his mother. He is the love of my life and I just can't remember what life was like before February 8, 2008.<br /><br /><br /><em>Potty Training</em><br /><br />Well, we have not gotten very far in this department. We attempted it again in November, but did not succeed. He would only go potty (#1) when we put him on the toilet, but not <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">initiate</span> it on his own. We tried M&M's, new underwear, toys, but none of that seemed to work. Last month I gave up on it and plan to try again in the near future.<br /><br /><br /><em>School</em><br /><br /><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Bryson</span> still goes to school full time, Monday through Friday. He absolutely loves his teacher! So much so, that he asks about her on the weekends. I tell him no Ms. Becky on the weekends because that is mommy/daddy time. He has several best buds in class that he talks about. If he gets a boo boo, he can't wait to go to school to show Noah or <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">TJ</span>.<br /><br /><br /><em>Speech</em><br /><br />Though <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Bryson</span> is still behind, he has made so much progress. He tries to copy most of what we say (yes even a few curse words). I actually feel like I can have a conversation with him now and they are usually pretty cute. There are still many words he says that only I can seem to decipher. The other day he crawled up on the couch next to me with his bag of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">cheetos</span> and one of our dogs Angel was laying at my feet. He said "No, no Angel. Cheetos are yucky." I could not stop laughing that he was telling our dogs he <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">cheetos</span> weren't good thinking that would stop her from eating them. I tell <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Bryson</span> "in a minute" a lot and he has now started telling me it in return. Oh the joys!<br /><br /><br /><em>Eating</em><br /><br />We still struggle in this area. We have been seeing a behavioral specialist for a little over 2 months now. We had high hopes, but have recently regressed.<br /><br /><p><em>Every other thing</em></p><p>My son loves sports and anything to do with a ball: golf, bowling, baseball, soccer. We can't say bowling or golf in our house unless we want him to pitch a fit to go do it, so we just spell it. He loves to play with other kids. He loves to go grocery shopping with me so he can get a cookie and ride the car cart. He loves to go to the mall so he can ride the merry go round. He loves to be the center of attention. He is very good natured (most of the time).

It is bittersweet. His growth and development amazes me, but in the process I have seemed to of lost my baby. He is now a little boy and has totally lost the baby face. Where did the time go? I asked him the morning of his birthday party if he was still my baby and he quickly replied "No!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Bryson</span> was so excited to bring cupcakes to school for his birthday this morning. He walked in the door of school very proudly and as everyone told him happy birthday, I could just see the grin on his face. Tonight we are taking him to one of his favorite places, Chuck E Cheese. It should be a great day!</div><div> </div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400996443959944402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheVyXr0M7TsX-eY8biNnblHUT7Ke1yoCVyduPtaI3j7rVpywYrXy1aRsHdde6qYXY2B9z1Cy5noIcPt_cfettOdckgtyLYwsT2liR8aMLRPJTIRadTX45mBvoHr8stvui2eS7Vd3zA5KLu/s320/102.JPG" border="0" /></div></div><br /><p align="center"><em>November 2007</em></p><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400996450722326306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSKMdt3VLpST3JlsxjRi9G5zi0VLNAPrlfpyDoC31sJkA5CVPORqMa-Cuu6OyIpRp66_9n7e06fhDQ0FIypVtVgDZzgZG7hfUMG3z-28pa6797sC6axDYAVZ6icQAYRDON8K1DNV4RVgHD/s320/1.JPG" border="0" /></p><p align="center"><em>October 2009</em></p>Shane & Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15042917503946808772noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8430677267731076049.post-78329886941201447722009-10-25T06:32:00.004-05:002009-10-31T21:20:32.745-05:00Party time!!!<div><div><div><div align="left"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Bryson</span> had a great birthday party today minus a few accidents.
