Our Appointment

Hey Guys,
Well we just got out of our appointment. We had an ultrasound
first thing and Mamie waved at us a couple of times. I woke up
feeling not so well this morning and thought I might loose it in the
ultrasound. But all was okay. :) She is right at the weight she
should be right now which is 7 oz.

After we finished with the ultrasound we meet with Dr. Sellers. I
really love having him as my doctor. He is so calm and doesn't make
us feel rushed or anything. He told us that I have a low lying
placenta which he hopes it will float up when I get bigger. If not I
will have to have a c-section. He also told us that Mamie has a cyst
on her brain..... he said he is not going to get all worried right
now. We scheduled an appointment with a specialist for Feb. 26th. He
wants to wait till I am 20 weeks and hopefully she will have absorbed
the cyst, then there will be nothing for us to worry about. It has
been a pretty hard morning for us. We are just so worried about our
little baby girl. Dr. Sellers said this is common and hopefully it
will just go away. We would really appreciate all of your prayers
these next 3 weeks.

I just scheduled an appointment with my acupuncturist for tomorrow
afternoon. I will feel better after seeing her. Then it's up to
patience and prayer until the 26th.

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...

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

Gracie

We are so sad this week because our sweet Grace has passed away. We have spent 10 1/2 wonderful and exciting years with her. She was the best pup. We always called her our super model because of her skinny legs, lean body and she always watched what she ate :) Never in my life have I known a dog that turned their nose up to steak. I remember the day I got her. I was a sophomore in college. I had two wonderful roomates and we thought we needed to add to our little family on Garland Street. I was pre vet that semester and had been studying different breads of dogs. The weimaraner, I had decided, would be my next dog. She was the cutest pup, and I fell in love the moment I saw her. These past 10 1/2 years have been wonderful with her around. She wasn't the most snuggly dog but she loved her mama and would sometimes crawl up close and curl up in a little ball. She was our little deer. :) Taylor and I have been talking about all the funny things she used to do today. It ...
