We Survived

For those of you wondering how his shots went today--we survived! It was honestly not as bad as I thought it might be. There were 2 nurses that swooped in and did it super-fast. He was in shock for a split second and then screamed for about 10 seconds as I scooped him up. But then he calmed really quickly and he even smiled while we were getting him dressed, so I think he is just fine! He fell asleep in the car and was still asleep when I left him at home. He is such a little trooper! I honestly think he hates getting his nose sucked out worse than the shots!!!

Last night I spoke with a friend of mine, Wendy, who just had an O baby on January 7. She lives near Tulsa. Her baby girl, Bianca, could use your prayers as well as Wendy and her family. She is doing okay and has improved a lot since birth, but she has a long way to go. She is battling some kidney and liver issues as well as the O, which ruptured at birth much like Jack's did. I will keep updates in the prayer requests section whenever I hear from her. She is struggling, like all NICU parents do, with having to go home each night and leaving Bianca in the hospital. Please pray for them.
