greetings from the bedside!

Liz and Andrew are happy to report that they were able to have a fun family time watching Cars with Josiah for first time. He enjoyed having snacks in bed with mom. Please pray for wisdom for Andrew and Liz as they continue to help Josiah adapt to this new phase of life with Mommy in the hospital.

Liz says she “really appreciates all the visitors that have come by... it helps the day go so much faster when I know a friend is coming.” If you want to check with Liz before you come, just send her a text message.

The belly is now measuring 34cms. It has grown 3 inches in 2 weeks. Mama sure is doing her job!

Liz and the babies went to the perinatologist today and here are some stats:

babies are measuring now 2.1 and 2.3 pounds

heart rates look great

moving quite a bit

baby A "Angel" is transverse

baby B "BB" is breach

not able to get a picture of them today as they were both hiding their faces with their hands

Liz will have a blood glucose test early tomorrow morning (beginning at 5am!). Please pray both for the results of this test and Liz’s comfort during this long morning.

Please also pray for Andrew who has been feeling under the weather during the last few days. Dad needs restful nights and healthy days to carry on with all the details of home, work, and hospital visits.
