Can't Sleep

Well it is now 11:10pm and I am usually way asleep by now. Not
tonight! I don't know what my deal is but I am WIDE awake. I have
been sitting here propped up with my AMAZING U shaped pillow that
Taylor got me from Relax The Back trying to figure out my new online
gallery for the past ah................4 or so hours. WOW I just
counted that up. Man that is crazy. Mamie has been kicking way. I
am glad to know that I am not the only one not able to sleep right
now. So just a minute ago I shuffled around a bit and changed my
position. Well that made Taylor, who has been dead asleep for the
past 2 hours shuffle around a bit as well. While scratching his arm
he whispered in this soft voice "Idiot," (pause.......) "dog
shit"..................... ah yeah I could not stop laughing. Who is
he talking to? And this totally reminded me that this talking in his
sleep thing has been happening a lot lately. I just haven't been able
to remember because usually he wakes me from my sleep doing it and I
have to nudge him and we both go back to sleep. Last night he was
talking pretty loud in almost full sentences. I can't remember what
he was saying but it is alway totally off the wall. I am still
giggling about the whole idiot, dog shit. I wish he would say
something else. Mamie, your daddy is a weirdo :) LOL

Taylor you always have a way at making me laugh even when you are
asleep. Love you!

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

Introducing Mamie's Poppy Plates

As you all know, I am Mamie's mom, and Mamie was my first child. I was pregnant with her from October 2008 to June 25th, 2009 when she was born a sleeping angel (stillborn) two and a half weeks before her due date. Stillbirth and infant death are realities that too many parents face even today. Did you know that each year 1 in 115 babies delivered is stillborn? And 1 in every 102 newborns die before the age of 28 days old? Now, a year after losing Mamie, I have started Mamie's Poppy Plates, my organization providing keepsakes for parents who are not able to take their babies home from the hospital. Because handprints and footprints are something that we cherish as parents of children in Heaven or here on this earth, I wanted to find a beautiful way to preserve such a precious reminder of our babies. Your donation of $13 will provide a plate to bereaved families who are delivering at St. Vincent Hospital. Their baby’s birth stats, hand and footprints will be stampe

Burke 24 weeks and update on doctor's visit

We had our big ultrasound the other week and I have been meaning to update you all. Sorry for the delay. First off I did pass my glucose test which is great news. To celebrate Taylor bought me a big snickers :) ha! just what I needed after drinking pure sugar water all morning on an empty stomach. I did have a total melt down at Cornerstone that morning. After drinking the sugar water I figured Burke would be bouncing around in my belly. I couldn't get him to move at all. I can't even begin to tell you all how scared I was. I rushed back to my nurse in tears begging for them to get the doppler out. Within seconds I was on the table as they rubbed the doppler across by belly. I was a total wreck. I just keep thinking in my head "I have lost another baby!" The nurse quickly found his heartbeat and everything looked and sounded great. I was SO relieved but couldn't pull it together. I wanted to curl up in a ball and cry my heart out. Why? Why did I ha
