12 weeks!

Well we have made it to 12 weeks and are doing great. Yesterday Taylor and I went in to see Dr. Sellers and got to hear baby Olives heart beat for the first time. What a sweet sweet sound and it was 165 beats per minute! We discussed everything that happened with Brit and the cholestasis (post to come). When Taylor and I were trying to get life insurance about a year ago through 2 different companies my liver enzymes were elevated both times. Sellers is going to keep a close eye on this and they drew blood yesterday. Once we hear back I might be sent to our G.I. doctor for further testing.
Seller was excited to tell us that he and his wife are due a few weeks before us. Crazy since last time they were due a few weeks behind us. We are so happy for them.
I go back in 4 weeks for another check up. Jyl, is going to do an ultra sound on Jan 11 and hopefully we will find out the sex of our little Olive. Be sure to cast your vote on the blog of what you think the sex might be.

Burke is 3!!!!!

Okay I have decided that time is going by way too fast.  Burke just turned 3 the beginning of June!  I can not believe it.  I feel like just yesterday I was in the hospital having the little guy!  We had a fun small family party and he is loving some super hero's right now so that was the theme :)  Silas really wanted to jump out when he walked in and yell surprise so that is what we did :)  Burke is super shy and he really wasn't a fan of it all.  Pibby and Pops got him his first bike and it is SO cute.   I picked up a balloon for all the kids and one special spider man one for Boo.  He has always loved balloons.  He said the sweetest thing....... he wanted to let his balloons go up to Mamie so she would know that it was his birthday.  I couldn't believe he let his special Spider Man one go.  It made me want to cry.  She should be here with us.  ANYWAYS, it was a fun day and I got some pictures of course and a few videos.  Happy 3rd Birthday Burkie BOO!  We love you so so

Baby Burke- Please Pray

Taylor and I went in for our big ultrasound this morning. I am 18 weeks along now, so they were checking out our baby boy closely. They found 2 genetic markers that caused a red flag. One cyst on the brain and his kidneys are enlarged. We need lots of prayers right now. Prayers for these markers to disappear and for our baby boy to be healthy. We also need prayers for our sanity as we wait, hope and pray. We will go back for another ultrasound in 8 weeks (March 31). We were told not to look this up on the internet and would appreciate only positive comments on this situation. God is good and we are leaving it in His hands. Thanks for your prayers, Sarah

NO FEAR!!!

I took the kids to the park this afternoon once the sun came out.  It was so beautiful and we love Woodlands Edge park.  Lots of trees, green space to run and Slides:) Winnie is small but that girl is mighty.  She has NO FEAR when it comes to the slides.  Which is totally different for me since Burke has always been so cautious.  I love days like this.  Feeling very blessed! - Sarah
