Wait yall…
from watching his every breath, to watching him walk
we blinked and ended up here 🥺👣🤎

One day we may forget what these moments felt like.
these feet. this little bubs. this season.
Now, forever remembered 🤍

Instead of paper, we chose to use fabric to add a bit of texture. That paired with a frame, baby-safe paint, and a Saturday afternoon = forever our favorite little feet 🦶🏽

To the woman who made me a father! I am forever grateful for you!

Happy First Mother’s Day! 💐

Motherhood looks beautiful on you. Grayson is beyond blessed to have YOU as his mother, and I’m blessed to walk through this journey with you.

Thank you for everything you do for our family. None of it goes unnoticed. You are truly the glue that keeps us together, and we wouldn’t be the same without YOU!

Love you always 🖤🤞🏾

We really thought we were gonna stay consistent 🤣
life said “y’all got a newborn, be serious” 🙃

so yeah... it became about getting through the day.
everything got quieter and heavier
but somehow fuller and better to

Truthfully, less keeping up, less working out, less date nights
More survival, more early mornings, more grace, and more showing up for this little human

But we’re finding our rhythm again
as doctors both working
as a dad leading a new family
as a mom navigating being OK with no ‘snap back’
& as partners realistically missing some of our freedom

Welcome back to us 🤎

Sunday Rounds- Week 14 🤎
He’s in his feet-up era…
warming up for the big roll we think is coming any day now

But the best thing: he found his reflection & therefore, made a new best friend. And he thinks he’s pretty cool? 🤣

Truths from these weeks:
• Almost-rolling still counts
• Grabbing is its own milestone
• He’s adjusting every week… and we’re catching up

Nothing flashy. Every week won’t be dramatic but every week is shaping who he’s becoming

Fun fact: I’ve been bald since I was 23 (11 years strong 🧑🏾‍🦲).
Tried all the supplements… even considered a trip to Turkey for a hair transplant — still might go, and if I do… mind your business 😂✈️

But the real plot twist? Wifey LOVES the baldy 😎🤝🏾

Sunday Rounds- Week 12 🤎
Drool and bubbles everywhere — his newest form of communication.
 And suddenly he’s paying attention longer… really looking at his toys like there’s something new to understand.

But the headline of the week? His first flight. Four flights, one hotel stay — and he handled it all with so much ease. He even slept the whole way back.

Truths from this week:
• Drool = progress (his senses are waking up and he’s learning his own mouth).
• It’s okay to be nervous and still do the thing anyway.
• Babies are better travelers than we give them credit for.
• You’re allowed to be proud of the little things — they matter.

Nothing flashy.
Just Gray Day slowly realizing he exists
and us lucky enough to watch it happen

Sunday Rounds- Week 11 🤎
He talks now…
…all day
talking to us, talking to himself but mostly to the ceiling fan

The hands? They are finding their way home & splashing in the bath like he’s surprised every single time

Truths from this week:
• Finding his voice feels like we’re actually meeting him
• Hand in his mouth, isn’t chaos, hunger nor teething , it’s his discovery
• Bath time went from routine to full sensory joy 💫

Nothing flashy.
Just Gray Day slowly realizing he exists

Welcome to Sunday Rounds
Smiles, rolls, vaccines… Week 10 was 🤎

This week felt like watching Grayson wake up to the world — and realizing we’re waking up right along with him.

The wild part about parenting? It’s not the big milestones. It’s the tiny moments that change you.

Truths from this week: • A baby smiling at you feels like hitting a new parenting level • Rolling over = he’s gifted. We don’t take criticism • Vaccine day: parents cry internally more than bubs

If you’re in the early weeks too (or will be soon): 
You’re not alone. We’re all just figuring these tiny humans out… while figuring ourselves out too

First day back to work after 4 weeks 👶🏽💼

The day every new parent dreads and for me, my first as a dad. Time flew by way too fast. I didn’t want to leave Tera & Grayson, but I knew the day would come.

I had my worries… would it be too much for Tera since we’re used to our little routine? But she killed it yesterday 🙌🏽 until I got home and Dad clocked in for the night shift 😂

One thing about me family comes before everything. God first, Tera, Grayson, then everything else. My career is cool, but what’s success if I’m failing as a husband or father?

Of course, I had to come home with a few of Tera’s favorite things!

My family changed my whole perspective. Wealth isn’t money — it’s family. We’re a unit!

One week of Gray 🤍
Welcome to the world our 6lb bundle:
Grayson Tobias Wallace 👶🏽 born 9.17.25

This season has shown us that love isn’t just shiny or staged. It’s your partner catching you when you’re messy and raw—when you’re bleeding, leaking, crying, and still healing. It’s the late-night teamwork and whispered prayers, the clumsy swaddles and quiet awe.

Together, we’ve entered the most humbling partnership yet: raising our son. Gray Gray, has been more than we ever dreamed 🥰🤍
