A Mommy to Two

Walt can make some of the hardest holidays, the sweetest. Although I am Magdalena's mommy this weekend, I am also the mommy to this sweet boy. He makes me smile and laugh. God's timing is perfect in all things. I don't know if I would have chosen to be pregnant and the entire time it was emotionally hard, but this weekend I am Walt's mommy too, and this face lightens my heart when it feels so heavy with grief.

    Julie. That's too cute. What brand is his jumper and where can I get one? I have two already but my little man doesn't like either because he gets so off balance. They both have 4 straps instead of 3 like Walt's and he almost tilts out of it plus I like the tray. Thanks in advance.

Magdalena Grace Roberts

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...
