Welcome to our World!


Grenades&Granola is all about our crazy, busy, joyful, blessed life! Babe and I wouldn't have it any other way...As we anxiously await the birth of our first son, Gideon Andrew, we can't help but marvel at all the blessings in our life.

After only 5 short years, Babe and I have gone from complete strangers to dating, engagement, deployment, elopement, a subsequent wedding, job changes, city changes and now parents!!! Whew! Is your head spinning?

Gideon is our little miracle - we prayed for him long before he was conceived and are now so excited to meet him.

Counting the Minutes


So, we are 39 weeks pregnant and I have nested and nested and there is nothing left in this house to clean! All the laundry has been washed, folded and put away, the carpets have been steam-cleaned, the floors mopped, the bathrooms are sparkling, the nursery is ready and the pantry is stocked! So with nothing else to do around the house and Gideon holding out, I have determined to turn to starting a blog. Since none of our family is close, hopefully this will provide a way for everyone to keep up with the Millward Trio. 

 We are so excited to meet Gideon. We are planning a home birth with two wonderful midwives. Babe will be catching Gideon! (This would be part of the granola - LOL) Our pregnancy has been so blessed and joyous, nonetheless, I am quite ready to deliver and hold my precious baby boy in my arms.
