Exactly 9 months ago today this little boy came into the world. And he has been changing it ever since. It’s never too young to fight for what you believe in… So with the help of mom and grandma he rolled his way to the capital to discuss the 2016 Gestational Carrier Act of MinnesotaContinue reading “Tommy Goes to the Capital!!!”

WeContinue reading “Tommy Bahama”

Tommy is officially out of the “4th trimester!!!” He is awake now much of the time, gaining head control more and more everyday (his head was so big this has been a challenge lol!), smiles and coos, and he is so much more interactive. He has such a chill loving personality! A gentle spirit whoContinue reading “Tommy Turns 3 Months!!”

SO I thought this blog was over. My last post I wrapped it up – at least on my end of things now that baby is here. Tommy was born on June 12th. We got our happy ending and what an ending it was. T4 happened. Our miracle somehow happened. Our unicorn made our dreamContinue reading “Our New Normal”

Ten days ago, on June 12th Tommy was born.  And T4, became a reality. If you have been following Tommy’s story you know it has been chock FULL of the highest highs and lowest lows. And his birth followed suit. After his valiant unicorn tried to bring him into the world for 42 hours heContinue reading “Ten Days of Tommy”

It’s been a week since Tommy was a bun in my oven.  The journey ended in the most unpredictable way we could have imagined.  And honestly, a little scary.  It’s taken me this last week to really process what exactly happened.  And for me it’s deepened my faith! There is no way that what happenedContinue reading “Tommy’s Arrival Journey by Brandi”
