More praises


I was at the doctor yesterday and came away with two praises. First, my Placenta Previa has corrected itself. That was a relief!
The second praise is the baby co-operated this time and we could see the gender! We were so excited we decided to share our excitement with you; We are having a BOY!! Amber who had been praying for a boy was ecstatic and has been picking names ever since. I hope she is not too disappointed when we don't use hers! She is insisting on 'Cosmo' a name she heard on her Clifford movie. (:

Praise Report

We had Amber at the doctor on Wednesday and left feeling relieved! He said that he does not need to see her anymore! Her nodes are still large, but he thinks it is from her tonsils. They are extremely large. The one was swelled up to where the one side of her throat looked about closed off. He said that tonsils will cause the nodes to swell, and can even drain into them. They won't operate till she has had tonsillitis or is having sleep apnea from them. He said that a biopsy would not prove anything, cause he is sure they are not cancer. He said if they were, they would be about lemon sized by now, and hers are not getting bigger. He said that is what he would do if she were his child. I felt we could trust his judgment. We were relieved to say the least! It is an answer to prayer!

Projects


Hope your Thanksgiving was blessed! We were at home for the day, but were invited to some friends for a Thanksgiving supper.
Please pray for Amber, she goes on Wednesday for her next appointment to the specialist.

Last Weekend with Grandpa and Grandma Heisey

We got to enjoy my Dad, Mom, Aunt Lynette and Uncle Brandon last weekend. The girls did not know they were coming and were very surprised!
We had a fun time and the weekend went too quickly!

A small prayer request. At the baby doctor last week, they discovered I have Marginal Placenta Previa. They gave me high hopes of things correcting itself, so please pray that it will and won't cause complications.

We enjoyed Saturday in Charleston. We went to an Aquarium and had a quick visit at the ocean.

Fun Days

Last weekend we surprised the girls and took them to the zoo. David had been putting in long days and we thought it was time for a family day. The weather was a perfect 80*. It is amazing to us how many times a child can go to the same zoo and still find it so exciting!

A train ride at the zoo. A highlight for Rissa to ride the " Choo-Choo"!
