Laynie Paynie- 12-7-07

Lacey absolutely can't believe that we'll call her that. I think it's adorable. Laynie Paynie. Well, this was another good glorious day. Our precious smidge weighed in at 3 lbs. 1 oz, and her heart still looks good. THat is the good news. Our doctor wasn't there today, and we have the biggest moron (SON OF SATAN, thanks Jessi) on the planet looking at our girl. First of all, the somber, fatalistic, "oh poor you" attitude, placating with "grim outcomes" blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah..........too hard to type blah (try it). anyway the good news is that she has grown, her heart is still steady and she is a kicking machine. Lacey's fluid is low (which is has been from the start, this is NOT new news) but people, that little girl in there weighs over 3 pounds! She's a bruiser! :) And the ultrasound girl that takes the readings before the doctor informed us she was breathing on her own "Watch her breathe" and we did, rapturously holding our breath as we watched our girl breathing in and out, steady in and out. She pointed at her knee as if to tell her mama "Uhm, this is that pokey thing that gives you so much trouble" Then I think the little tooter flipped us off. Oh, she is going to be loved. OH man, she already is. The conversation that flowed today was how God is sitting beside us every second. I know I have never been in a constant flow of prayer like I am now. I know I praise Him for every victory, for every bump, it's all His will. It took me a while to get that. Lacey had a conversation with a friend at church (lindy, you angel) and understands how God has become her best friend through this deal. He's right in the seat beside her, every second. Blessing her, blessing Laynie, blessing everyone around her. Better start buying that baby some Christmas gifts, cause she is going to be here in no more than 64 days and wow, we better get a move on. Oh, precious friends ......... God is SOOO so good. All the time.
