blood work and prayers

The boys are all doing very well and adjusting to a life of 7! The twins have been having regular (weekly) weight checks because although they are gaining weight it's just not enough.  So we will go back again next week for another weight check.  Here is what you should pray for! Pray that the boys each gain an oz a day at least.  This means Dylan will weigh in at 6lb 3oz and that Logan will be 5lbs 14oz

With that the boys continue to have regular labs drawn.  This is new to me as it's something Justin didn't have to go through.  On Monday we will be going back to the hospital to have some labs done.  Please please pray for good or shall I say normal results.  Right now it looks like Dylan might have a thyroid disorder.  Please pray against that.  His hemoglobin is high too but the doctor says that should work itself out.
Thank you for your prayers.  We feel so blessed right now.  Thankful to have all our boys home, thankful for the roof over our heads, the friends who are renting to us.  Thankful for the love and support of our church family.  Thankful for a wonderful marriage and for the fact that Jake and I continue to stand together to weather the storms this life has given us.  We are blessed.  Maybe not financially but in so many other ways, we are blessed and we are thankful.
Merry Christmas to you all!  Count your blessings from this past year and look forward to the blessings of next year.
