Time to update!
I can't believe we're almost through this month and that Thanksgiving is next week! Where do the days go? So the update on my life is that I'm still painting, I should really go into business! I've been painting Juliana's room and I'm sad to say I'll be painting it over again. I like the base color, however I used a stensil on one wall and I'm just not feeling it. It's just too busy for what I'm wanting to do in there.
On a different note, I got some disturbing news on Noah yesterday. If you know my son, you know that he is not very vocal, meaning that when he crys or talks it's not very loud and his voice always sounds hoarse. So his doctor suggested that I take him into an ENT (ear, nose and throat specialist) to get a second opinion. So I went in with the expectation that nothing was wrong and that they would send us on our way...WRONG! I won't go into details on what my poor son had to endure yesterday because Lord knows I don't need to cry again, so to make a long story short he has a couple growths on his voice box that need to be removed. It is caused by a viral infection and apparently is very rare in young children. So I'm assuming the surgery will be soon, I'm waiting on a phone call from his doctor to set up a time. His surgery will be held at Scottsdale Shea and normally it's an outpatient procedure but since he's so young they will keep him overnight. The catch is that it's not a one time shot, it could be 2-3 surgeries or the extreme would be every 2-3 months. So we are praying and believing for a miracle, and if you could stand in agreement with us we would greatly appreciate it!
On the brighter side I'm still feeling great and I feel so very blessed to be able to say that! I get an ultrasound done next week so I really hope all this hard work painting a girlie room won't go down the drain. My first ultrasound they told me they were 98% sure it was a girl but I'm sure we all know of someone that has heard that and then come due day a boy pops out! Either way I know I am blessed!
Here is a picture of the wall I will be repainting.

We will pray for you! We have every confidence that God is in control. I want Noah to be healthy, of course... but I will miss his adorable whispery voice. It is so uniquely adorable.
I haven't seen it "in person", but that wall is gorgeous. Rethink repainting? Plus... are all those fumes good for you?
We are in agreement with you guys as well!!!
And, we love you - and I'm 100% it's a Juliana!
I will have to look at the room again to give an opinion - BUT, I have to say it was looking REALLY nice when I saw before you were finished. Her room is going to be the top dog of all little princess' rooms.
Love you!
Jess,
We are definitely standing with you about Noah.
I think the room looks cute...whatever you decide! I know it will be gorgeous in the end!
Jess:
I will be praying for Noah. Everything will go smoothly I'm sure of it! My thoughts and prayers are with you guys. Love you!
Okay, I LOVE The stencil job. Not sure I like the purple- but no doubt about it- the stencil job is beautiful!
So sorry to hear about Noah, but on the bright side-I'm SO excited to hear his true voice. Stay positive and know God will take GREAT care of him! We love you guys!
