Jude just can’t catch a break. Since he’s been out of the hospital, he’s gotten sick 2 times. I think this time he has a cold or flu and maybe pink eye. We’ll bring him to the open clinic tomorrow morning. I just feel so bad for him. I want Jude to remember what it …

“I Think This Day We’re Going to Heaven”
Little Jude is still having an awful headache all day long from the spinal tap on Wednesday. Thankfully, headaches like this are somewhat relieved when he’s laying down. So, he’s been laying down as much as possible. And, a doctor I spoke with yesterday called in a prescription for an amazing anti-nausea that Jude thought …
Update on Jude
On Wednesday, we had a long day. We left at 9-ish for Children’s Hospital and got home at 6-ish. Jude had an MRI, spinal tap and suture removal scheduled in St. Paul and an appointment with the oncologist in Minneapolis. At arrived in St. Paul at the time they told us to arrive, but I …
Another Medical Scare with Jude
Jude, his Grandma Forbes and I built a gingerbread train today. Tonight Jude did something he has never done before. He shoved a candy from the train up his nose. Jude came up to me and Andy and said “there is candy up my nose.” He said that he tried to get it out, but …
Day by Day
I’m having a hard time keeping track of what day it is and what happened when and haven’t really processed all that has happened, so this post is for me. November 21, 2010 (Sunday) This all began on Sunday, November 21, 2010. Jude, Levi and I were outside playing hard. We were sledding in the front …

Final Countdown!
Well, it’s been awhile since we’ve posted. We’re in the final countdown until the birth of our next baby boy. I have a C-section scheduled for February 15th and am hoping to make it until that day. My doctor gives me a 90% chance of making it until the 15th if I try to get …
Getting Kicked in the Gut
Normally getting kicked in the gut would be a bad, unpleasant thing. But, every time my little baby boy kicks me in the gut, I am so happy and reassured. It’s just the best feeling in the world to know that the little guy is doing okay and is such a fun reminder that I do …
Quadscreen Nightmare
This third pregnancy of mine has been full of worry. For the first 16 weeks or so, I was worried about miscarrying again. When I was 16 weeks and far enough along to have no excuse to worry anymore, I made a huge mistake by taking the quadscreen. The quadscreen tests for Downs, spina bifida …
