Oops!

I'm making Judah's photo book and I accidentally posted some here. My bad.

Aniya Joi

When I went to my ultrasound appointment to find out the sex of the baby at the beginning of October, the doctors noticed something wrong. There was fluid collecting around the baby's brain, lungs, and stomach. The doctor said that was a sign that the body was shutting down and the outcome of my pregnancy didn't look good. I was at the appointment by myself and I completely lost it. After talking to my ma and MrC I calmed down and we decided to continue on with the pregnancy and get weekly ultrasounds to monitor the baby's progress. We were praying and hoping for a miracle. Unfortunately, at the end of October during my ultrasound we discovered the baby didn't make it. Of course we wanted a different outcome, but we know that God is in control and everything will be alright. I went to the hospital that night to get induced and I had Aniya the next morning. Thanks to everybody that prayed with us and for us while we were going through our situation. When I get to heaven (at least 60 years from now) I'll get to see my sweet baby girl again!

Pumpkin Patch 2012

We took Judah to our neighborhood fall festival on Saturday and had a great time. While we were there we ran into some people we knew and Judah decided he loves Koree and thankfully the feeling was mutual. She helped him pick out a pumpkin and they even posed for pictures together. He's at such a fun age (17 months tomorrow) and it's fun to discover what he enjoys and things he doesn't care about. He follows directions really well, and by follows I mean completely understands and chooses if he's willing to obey depending on the way the wind is blowing that day. His sense of humor is developing and he likes making us laugh or joining in when he can tell somebody is telling a joke. If you can't tell by the pictures, Judah is a fat kid now. He's very solid with a fat face and huge belly which is even funnier when you realize he walks like Sherman Hemsley did on The Jeffersons. He's with his Gi Gi and Paw Paw tonight which is why I had a few minutes to blog before bed :)

Never a dull moment
