June 21st - 33 weeks

Ultrasound appointment today...Sayla Grace has grown to 3 lbs. No changes from the last blog as far as prognosis, but we will continue to pray for God's Will in her little life. Her story has touched so many lives already and will continue to touch people throughout. We will now have ultrasounds and doctor appt every week until her delivery (Last week of July, but no definite date as of yet).

Nate and Leann (my step-children) were able to go and see the ultrasound, and I am glad that they were able to be a part of this experience. We had some 4D pictures taken too. Her feet are in front of her face...as usual..and we could plainly see all of her fingers and toes. The pictures are GREAT! I hope that I can figure out how to post them soon!!

We have been so blessed to take this journey...I know that sounds completely insane to most peopke. A friend of mine made me realize...we were CHOSEN for this journey!!! God chose US to bear this trial and we intend to give HIM all of the glory for whatever may happen. We have some tough times ahead..so please continue to pray for the circumstances that are in front of us!!
I love you Sayla Grace,
Mommy!!

  1. Mandi, as I read your latest post, it brought Isaiah 61:3 to mind - a verse that God has recently given me as our family battles cancer once again. You are truly a righteous oak planted for His splendor as you PRAISE HIM through your circumstances! You are right; God chose you and Daniel to carry HIS sweet little Sayla Grace. We are praying for your family and Sayla. We praise Him, too, for what Sayla's story is teaching us all. The Bible tells us that God uses "foolish" things to confound the minds of the wise. In that, it means things we would not think of. Small things, like five little stones and a shepard boy. We don't know what he will continue to show us through Sayla, but we will be sure to thank him and PRAISE HIS NAME for letting us love you, Daniel, Sage, Nate, Leann, and Sayla Grace even if for a short time.
    I love you, girl!
    Love,
