Walt's 28 Week Debut




Today I am officially 28 weeks and 2 days, but Walt is growing so well that he is three days ahead measuring 28 weeks and 5 days. He is about 2 pounds 14 ounces, which puts him in the 58 percentile. Noah and I were so glad to see that sweet little face of his, and it is obvious that he is going to be a very active little guy. Now, I begin going to see the doctor every two weeks (until week 36 when I begin going every week), but unfortunately there are unlikely to be anymore sonograms. We will have to wait to see exactly what he looks like when he makes his grand entrance. As of now we are not sure whether or not he has Noah's little nose like Magdalena did, or if he will have a nose similar to those on my side of the family. He does have a little hair that we found on the back of his head! How cute!

    Just had to stop by and take a peek at Walt. So glad to hear that all is well and that he's on the fast track to becoming a big boy!

    Your family remains in my prayers, can't wait to see pictures of Walt at 40+ weeks ;-)

This morning Magdalena left this world to be with Jesus. There really isn't too much else I can say but to please pray for Julie and Noah. For now, they do not want any calls, emails or visits. I will you keep you updated on the arrangements.

Making the Decision to Not Make the Decision

I get the question, "Are you going to have any more kids?" asked often. Since finding out Magdalena's diagnosis it was always a tough question to answer. We had always envisioned ourselves with multiple children, but there was always the lingering thought of having to endure this difficult situation again. Although it is less than a one percent chance that we would have another child with T18, the percentage still exists. When pregnant, I said multiple times that I couldn't do this again and my mom constantly reminded me that it is not always that difficult. Being pregnant was physically uncomfortable, but I was referring to the constant emotional exhaustion. As Magdalena continued to do well, Noah and I weren't sure when to begin thinking about other children. Noah and I discussed that I would work really hard at losing my weight, but I was willing to be five pounds more than what I was originally. People poked fun at my not eating Magdalena's birthday cakes...
