Last Sunday, I had the opportunity to go to a friend's baby shower. She had her son, Riley, two months early. She had gone to the hospital because she had a migraine but just felt different! While at the hospital, she was tested for preclampsia, high blood pressure and stuff like that but nothing showed up on the specific test. It was while she was there, that she suddenly had a seizure. The baby's heartbeat wasnt found and she was rushed to emergency C-section. She miracle is that both she and the baby made it just fine and are both doing well. Riley only weighed 4 pounds and was in the hospital a week. He is home now and doing just fine.
Tonight my friend Jen and I got to go see her and the kids and we had a blast. Belynnda allowed us to take pictures (oh yes I got tons!) and post them on here, so here are a few of them.
While I was holding him, I got a sense of contentment and I allowed myself to wonder, just for a moment, if this was what it felt like to hold your own.
As you can see, Riley is absolutely adorable! He is at 4 lb 7 oz now and his tiny feet are about an inch and a quarter long. I certainly cant wait till God blesses me and Michael with a little miracle of our own!
