Big Boy Bed Update

So last night was great! Jordan put Tyler to bed and all was quiet... for about 30 minutes... then he began to cry. So we waited to see if he would fall back asleep... and after a little while as the cries got louder, I decided to try to put him down again... only to find him standing at his door trying to escape!

We didn't think he knew how to climb out of the bed yet, but I guess he was desperate to get out! So after a song or two, I put him back into his big boy bed, and didn't hear a peep from him until 7:30 this morning!!!

I have to admit, I slept very lightly last night, almost waiting for the cries to start and my duty to begin. Add to that my third trimester pregnancy bathroom breaks and just trying to get comfortable in bed ... it was a long night... but, NOT for the reasons we had thought it might be!

He is about to go to bed now, so we will see if how tonight goes! The Lord has been so faithful to us so far, and we anticipate much more grace for the days, and nights ahead!

Pictures from last night to come!

Diagnosis and Grace

Friends- "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" Psalm46:1 Much has happened since I last wrote only 2 short days ago. We found out much later that night a new diagnosis, that our sweet boy has leukemia . We were not completely shocked but we were certainly shaken. After I posted about what was going on at Shady Grove, and we waited a bit more for some results, and we were informed that we needed to take Jack to Children's Hospital in DC for further testing with specialists. This raised our concern level quite high as you can imagine, that even with a snow storm coming, we were needing to make this trip. I began to google the combination of things they had found in the tests done on our little boy (swollen spleen, low platelet count , swollen lymph nodes) and came up options that were NOT Lyme disease, although a few of these symptoms did also look like Lyme. As a result of the google quest, I came across some concerning outcomes, one of the most

Just too funny

I had to share this funny moment with Tyler. I guess I will always be a cheerleader at heart- so I was cooking dinner and decided to do a little "cheer" of Tyler's name for him to see what he would do.... and he just laughed so hard- it was on the verge of crying! See the little video below!

.Results and Re-Admission.

I am so happy to share that the results from the bone marrow biopsy came back with the results we had hoped and prayed for! They said they found less than 0.1% Leukemic cells in his bone marrow!!! So this is such great news! The prognosis is a good one, and now we get to keep marching on into the next 3 years of making sure the Leukemia does not come back and he is fully in remission! Thank you all so much for all the prayers said on our behalf! I also have the happy report of how last night and this morning went as well... So last night, we woke Jack up at 11:30 to feed him one last time before midnight. He was so sweet and groggy but ate a bunch of nuggets and french fries. We gave him a bottle and put him in bed at midnight and hoped for the best... well, he did not wake up again until 4:45... which was AMAZING for us and him! That was a long stretch for the little guy! After that he cried for a while and Jordan tried distracting him with books and holding him for a while. Jordan w
