Rest...Ahhhh

After many nights of little sleep and waking up at 3 in the morning to begin the day, Mimi took Magdalena to spend the afternoon with her. Noah and I took turns to rest yesterday. Noah took a good nap yesterday afternoon, so last night I went to bed early. Although I have been awake since about 4:30, I feel like a new person. Magdalena and I slept through the next (this excludes normal night things to wake her up briefly like a diaper change). I am hoping that today I will see some more of her blue eyes and hear less cries, but we will see!

  1. I hope that means you both are getting over whatever junk you had. Good to get some rest when they are that little.

  2. I'll be praying that the cough goes away for both of you and you can just sleep well!

  3. I hope you are all better soon, and back to getting "some" sleep, as opposed to very little. :)

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
