Thank you for all of you sweet prayers and thoughts during this time. Mo and I can truly feel your prayers. I will go back to the high risk doctor one more time to do a target ultrasound on his heart. It is just to follow up and make sure everything is going well. I feel that it will be fine since we have seen his four chambers and the blood flowing correctly. After that, I will be back to a regular pregnancy. Mo and I have truly been blessed by our circumstances. We have grown much stronger in our walk with God. It is sad to think things like this help us grow closer to God but I would not change our experience for anything.
Oh- We have a name!!!!!! Cooper William!!!
We cannot wait to meet him in the January!

Answer to pray
Hey Everyone,
We just got the call from doctor with the results of the fish test. The fish test test of chromosomes of 13, 18, and 21. These were the ones that the doctors were most concerned with due to the evidence that we were finding in the ultrasound. We got the results and there was no evidence of any of these three. The power of pray is amazing! Here is some of our quite time that I would like to share with you from this morning.
Thank you for all of your prayers during this time. We have truly felt them around us. Thank you for the calls, emals, and cards.
In Gods Hands We Trust,
Ana
We received that book 'Calm My Anixous Heart' from one of my second moms yesturday. Mo and I have enjoyed reading from it over that last few days.
' When What Ifs come into our lives, we must ask ourselves if we're going to judge God by the circumstances we don't understand or judge the circumstances in light of the character of God.
How to handle our problems without worrying
1. Ask yourself what is the worst that can possibly happen.
2. Prepare to accept it if you have to.
3. Then calmyly proceed to impriove on the worst.
each helps the other and says to his brother, 'Be Strong!' - Isaiah 41:6
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strenghten you and help you; I wil uphold you with my righteous right hand. - Isaiah 41:10
He will have no feat of bad news; his hearts is steadfast, trusting in the Lord. Psalm 112:7
O Lord, be gracious to us, give us stength in the morning and our salvation in time of distress. - Isaiah 33:2

Prayer Request and Verse
Last night, I was spending some quite time with God. I asked him if he could give me a verse to have during this difficult time. He led my fingers to Isaiah. The title was Distress and Help- Chapter 33. This was the verse that has stuck with me and I am putting it to memory.
"O Lord, be gracious to us; we long for you - Be our strength every morning, our salvation in time of distress" Isaiah 33:2
Isn't it amazing how he can point right to a verse. We will find our results tomorrow at some time. Please continue to keep us in your prayers during this time.
In God's Hands We Trust,
Ana

Prayer Request for our son
Hey everyone,
We just got back from the doctor. We have had to due some further testing. They was evidence of a few more soft findings. On the great side, his heart looked really good. There is concern for a chromosome problem most likely being Down's Syndrome. We had a fish test that will give us more information on where we stand. We will get that result back on Friday. We are looking for no abnormalities. If there is an abnormality, we will have to wait 9-12 days to exactly what the abnormality is. We are praying that they find no abnormalities with our results on Friday. Please continue to pray for son and us to give us the strength during this time. We are going to love this child just the same whichever way the result comes. We would like to have the time to prepare for a special needs child if need be. I love ya'll! I know that this in God's hands and he will take care of us. My quote of the week is "God will not give us anything that we cannot handle".
Love,
Ana

Hey Everyone,
We received a phone call from our doctor today that will call for an target ultrasound with different doctor. I only have two vessels in my umbilical cord instead of three which cause for concern.
It is called Single Umbilical Artery. I put a little info about it below. Dr. Barron even thought our chances are greater than 90% all is well.
My doctor, Dr. Barron, said that this was the only soft evidence that they found which is a good thing but we are to follow up with an at risk doctor to make sure.
We have an appt. for this Wednesday at 9:00. We will receive an targeted ultrasound at that time to tell us more information. The chances are very great that everything will be fine but we ask a special prayer for him.
Our God is loving God and will not give us anything that we can not handle. This is in our path along our journey with God that will bring us closer to him. I have tremendous faith and know that this is in his hands.
Mo and I are fine and know that everything will be just the way God planned it to be for us.
Love,
Ana

Our First Day of School!
Campbell started a Mother's Morning Out this morning. She did fine when I dropped her off. When I came back,she was so busy playing that I finally had to call her name so that she would see me. While she went to school, I went to the doctor. I go back in 2 weeks to find out if it is a boy or girl!!!

McWane Center
We went to the McWane Center with Tate and Jennifer. The children had a great time. They had a great time in the Itty Bitty Magic part. It is great for young children. Here are a few pictures.
Sorry it has been so long since I have blogged. I have been resting when Campbell is napping. For those they might not know, I am 12 weeks pregnant. I have been pretty sick and tired. Hopefully, things will start to turn around.
