baby news, good and bad...

bath time
heres my new little baby pie! having her first real bath now that her belly button cord fell off. she is the sweetest little thing. but Ive not been able to hold her now for two days because I've been sick. I think she misses her grammie pie!
not so sure shes liking this
I havent been to work in two days, and honestly, I feel worse tonight then I have the last two days, but I have to go to work tomorrow. Hopefully I'll feel better in the morning. Its been a tough day, besides being sick, we got some very sad news
and I have a broken heart now too. I would like to ask you all to pray for my son and his girlfriend as they have found out today that their baby will not survive if he is born. He was supposed to be due june 4th. He has a herniated diaphragm and severe heart defects. This is devastating to all of us, but especially to them. It just breaks my heart to think of the pain they are in. So please pray for them as they figure out how to deal with this and for comfort for them. I wish there was something I could do to make them feel better. but there isnt. they are also to close on their new house in 3 weeks.. so a lot going on for them right now. I know I can count on your prayers, so I thank you in advance.
OK.. I'm taking my sick, broken hearted self to bed.
good night friends

I am adding my prayers to the others! I can't imagine what they must be going through. But I know they will make their decision together & be strong! Viv, I hope YOU feel better soon! Sometimes these darned sicknesses take one day to REALLY torment a person before the give up & go away! Maybe this is its attempt to go out with a bang! (You leave my Viv ALONE, hateful sickness!) When you are better, kiss that beautiful little sweetheart for me! LOVE YOU!!!

Debby said...

Hi there again.
Thanks for stopping by.
Oh my gosh, I have always wanted to do the "oink" hair thing as well. I forgot on the post to tell how Dancing Girl dyed my hair with her new Barbie set. I had a clump of pink for a couple of days, hah. Someday, you and I will go pink......maybe during October. I would love to.

oh my...She is a cutie pie...and Viv & Family I will pray for the baby in her womb...This is devistating news. I pray they will find comfort in God's word and pray they have a huge support group of family and friends to be there for them. It is not easy losing a baby. I am still not over my loss 15 years ago. I also pray that perhaps the docs. are wrong...they can be sometimes...they seem to be gungho to abort babies. I have heard many stories such as this where they aere wrong and the parents went through with the delivery with a healthy baby or the babies complications were dealt with and they survived. Keep us posted. Big hugs your way friend!!!! Love,Mica

Emily said...

Suz said...

Viv,
I am so sorry and I will pray for them. We have little Brooks and Andrew waiting for us in heaven. They were born at 21 weeks and had a defect between them. I know the pain. it is just like losing a child...almost. I am so sad for them!
Hugs,
Suz
