Some Beach Pics

I wanted to share some pictures of us at the beach back in May. Silas is doing a pretty good job guarding Uggle (This is what Silas started saying instead of Uncle)  We love it!  We are just going to be Uggle and Kiki :) A little curl popped up on top of Silas' head.  Isn't it adorable.  Mamie we hope you have curls like your momma.   Silas was all about wearing his glasses at the beach.  Such a cool dude!
I love this picture of Brit and Silas.  It makes me think of People magazine and I was that paparazzi hiding in the bushes to get a good pic of some famous person with their cool baby ;) Silas was all about the water.  There is no fear in this child when it comes to water.  He for sure kept us all on our toes.  I can't imagine what it will be like with he and Mamie next year at the beach.  :)
This is such a serious face :)
I love his blue eyes!  What a sweet little baby ;) Silas loves his Pops jeep!  The boy had some "Man" time and drove Silas down the street and back. Mary Ellen one of Brit's friends brought her adorable kids down to play one day.   Not sure what they are looking at? Mamie, here's your cute daddy! And Pibby and Pops taking a walk down the beach.   I love how much Taylor loves on my belly.  He is talks to you a lot Mamie.  You for sure will be a daddy's girl and Taylor can't wait.
Silas loved the sand so Pops and Uncle Jason covered his legs all in it. Silas loves his Kiki
Oh so heavy! This is one of my favorites of Silas.  That look just makes me smile.

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
