HI BABY SAM


GOO GOO GA GA GOO GOO GA GA

I've asked several times before for prayers for our neice-in-love Christine who has been very sick since December with a pregnancy related condition called hyperemesis. The last 6 months have not been kind to Tine and she has suffered for most of those months. She has been in the hospital more than she has been out. She has been poked and prodded and poked some more. She has been in extreme pain with nothing to relieve her. She has been a trooper. Her precious little family has been totally out of sync with any type of normal life they were used to. Both Mimi and Giggi, along with the PaPaws, have taken big brother Jack so that Matt can be the wonderful husband he is to Tine. No one would have had it any other way. But, no one has had rest.....no one has had normalcy. They have bought a house that they have never lived in yet.........this is the one I posted previously that their friends and family did an EXTREME MAKEOVER on. That was an amazing effort of love.


Once again, our family asks for your prayers. Baby Sam is coming into our lives on Monday, June 18th. We know he weighs around 4 pounds and will most likely have to stay a little longer than his Mommy will in the hospital. But, our prayer requests are for his safe delivery and health and of course, that Christine will experience a relief for her tired body upon his delivery. She is exhausted. She is sick of being sick. She wants her life back. Matt wants his wife back. Jack wants his mommy back. And Baby Sam wants to come home. Welcome to the world Baby Sam....we love you! We can't wait to meet you.

Oh yuck I feel for her. I had hyperemesis with ALL of my pregnancies and it was HORRIBLE. I only gained 2 lbs with my last one because it was so bad. Once she lays eyes on that baby she will forget and it will all be worth it! That is why I had 3 and didn't stop after the first one lol
