Tuesday afternoon Dustin started to have blood in his urine, but no other symptoms. No pain, no fever, nothing else significant. He went into urgent care and they started him on antibiotics for treatment of what we all assumed was a kidney infection. Thursday morning, Dustin woke up around 3am with pain so intense that it made him nauseous and weak. I loaded him into the van, woke up all 5 kids and we rushed to the ER. While at the ER they ordered a CT scan to see if there was a possible kidney stone causing the pain, nausea and bloody urine. When they CT came back the Doctor came in and told us that there was no kidney stone but actually a golf ball size mass on/in Dustin's right kidney. Another full body CT with dye was ordered and Dustin was admitted and moved to a room on the third floor. While they did that, I left and ran the older two kids to school. That afternoon, Lily flew into town and came and took the little kids home from the hospital. Later that night the Doctor came in and gave us the CT results. Dustin had a malignant tumor on/in his right kidney. Thankfully, Dustin's left kidney is in perfect health and there are no other growths, tumors or abnormalities anywhere else in his body. The Doctor told us that he would be scheduling surgery to remove the Kidney as soon as possible. Thursday night and Friday morning were very long and Dustin was not getting any relief from the pain and his urine was still bloody. Friday evening Dustin had surgery to remove his right kidney. Brian had flown in earlier in the afternoon and was able to come to the hospital, while Lily was at home with the kids, and be there with me when Dustin came out of surgery. The surgery was a success and the doctor was pleased with the results. He confirmed that there were no other abnormalities except for those regarding the right kidney, and also that the left kidney is perfectly healthy. Late Friday night Lily came down with the horrible flu bug that we had all had last week. Thankfully, Brian was able to watch the kids while Lily recovered on Saturday and while I was at the hospital with Dustin. Saturday, Dustin was still pretty rough and swollen but overall there had been a huge improvement in the pain and the blood in his urine had stopped. By Sunday the doctor had switched Dustin from IV pain medication to oral pain medicine in hopes of him being able to come home. Dustin was able to come home this morning and is doing well. He is enjoying ESPN and Percocet. Thank you for all of the prayers and good thoughts that were sent our family's way. We appreciate all of the love and support that we have received more than words can describe.Dustyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11341658939035820106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4403044393555612486.post-46798062065997399952016-11-18T16:12:00.002-05:002016-11-18T16:21:00.592-05:00First Birthday GirlHappy Birthday Miss Lillian Mae!

Hard to believe that this little Lily Bug has been with our family for almost a year! Lillian is a happy, cheerful, patient and independent little baby. She doesn't say a whole lot, but when she does she has a very adorable deep little voice. Lillian loves to clap her hands, both for herself and for others. Lillian also loves pointing, she points at all of her favorite things and people. Lillian loves Skeeter and he thinks that she is the most wonderful smelling and tasting baby ever. Lillian adores her siblings and is always thrilled anytime that they want to play with her or when Elijah carries her around on his shoulders. Lillian has added so much sunshine into our family! We are so very glad that she decided to be apart of our family, </div>

She also had found her feet, and she loves to suck on her toes. Lillian loves her brothers and sisters and is always excited when they play with her and give her loves. Lillian has also become very aware of Skeeter and she always tries to get a fistful of his hair anytime he is close enough. Skeeter thinks she is the most delicious and yummy smelling little person and always tries to steal licks when mommy is not looking. Lillian is happy! She is wonderfully content whether alone to play or with one or all of her siblings. She also does well with other people holding her, which is different from the other kids. She has decided that Daddy can be okay for short periods of time, especially now that Daddy is clean shaven:). </div>

Happy 4 months to this little Lily Bug. Lillian is a happy and content little baby. She can roll over and she enjoys sitting in the Bumbo so that she can watch the kids. Lillian loves to talk and show us how well she can use her sweet little voice. She is a great eater,which helps her keep her chubby cheeks, and a super sleeper much to her mama's delight. Lillian is very quick to smile and hardly ever cries. We are so lucky to have Lillian as a part of our family. </div>

She is saying a lot more words and she is getting better and better at getting her point across, especially when she is telling on one of her siblings. She knows the other kids names, but she calls Emme "Sissy," Elijah is "ig brudd" and Giddy is just "brudder," usually yelled or screamed and Lillian is only "baby," never Lily or Lillian. She is a silly little person with a funny personality. She is very content to play alone and she loves going in her room and playing by herself and depending on her mood you may or may not be allowed in. She loves Mickey Mouse, not Minnie, everything has to be Mickey like Giddy's stuff. She knows some colors and she knows a few animals. Not farm animals, but you know like owls and fish and cool ones like that. Lol She loves to dance especially on tables. She knows all of my tunes and she will sing along and jam with me in the car. She is tiny for her age and everywhere we go people are "amazed that she can walk so well." Ezzy definitely is the life of the party and super fun to be around. </div><br></div>Lizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02118126360358789282noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4403044393555612486.post-24967396820521761142016-01-10T18:06:00.001-05:002016-01-10T18:06:14.388-05:00Matching Sunday<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguulLZGQQxAZ2WPgk8yeICqn2uMyodLucV-0Zkh-cEtsSAUfohzFr4jw60uRzreDNJH-lwzgrRCRmhsuOZOyIcOI4XvaVyzVroa4DIL6rASPpgZah-3zFkD8MgwHXb-KUBbVS8XUNtCUM/s640/blogger-image-2043198085.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguulLZGQQxAZ2WPgk8yeICqn2uMyodLucV-0Zkh-cEtsSAUfohzFr4jw60uRzreDNJH-lwzgrRCRmhsuOZOyIcOI4XvaVyzVroa4DIL6rASPpgZah-3zFkD8MgwHXb-KUBbVS8XUNtCUM/s640/blogger-image-2043198085.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Beautiful girls!

A few weeks ago I had my 20week ultrasound where we got the exciting news that we would be welcoming a little girl in November. Our whole family was excited and feeling very content with the ultrasound as a whole. Several days after the ultrasound my Doctor called and told us that they had detected some mild swelling on the baby's brain, and that the swelling was a sign of one or more chromosomal abnormalities. Boom! The stress that I had already been feeling towards this pregnancy had in an instant become multiplied a hundred times, no a million times.<br />
The nurse helped me set up an appointment at the University of Iowa for a Level 2 ultrasound that would be attended by a Geneticist, a neonatal neurologist and a GP doctor. After the ultrasound I had an appointment where we would discuss the immediate care that the baby would need at birth and then the continual care that they would need throughout their life.<br />
The 10 days of waiting for my appointment were really hard on me. I could only imagine the worst case scenario, and the thought of my baby having a life filled with suffering or pain was truly shattering. We didn't tell the kids anything because we wanted to have all of the information before we concerned them about anything. On Sunday night it was Emme's turn to say family prayer, and in her perfect way she made me feel a thousand times better. She began her prayer by thanking Heavenly Father for the new baby and then asked that He would bless that the new baby would be healthy. Kids really are amazing!<br />
On Tuesday, I went into my appointment and I was a little surprised when the Geneticist wanted to meet with me before the ultrasound to discuss what would be seen on the ultrasound and what to expect overall from this appointment. She sat me down, got her tissue box positioned in front of me and informed me that after going over the previous ultrasound results that they had decided that the baby did indeed have Down's Syndrome. She paused and waited for what I assume was an emotional break down from me. Instead, I felt... relief...huge relief! After looking into the other chromosomal abnormalities that the baby could have had, Down's Syndrome was a huge relief. People with Down's are as a whole very healthy, especially if there is no heart defect. All of the other possibilities that the baby could have had would have guaranteed a life (short or long) filled with operations and surgeries and hospital stays. <br />
Obviously surprised by my response the Geneticist asked "Elizabeth, you do understand what Down's Syndrome is?" I told her that yes, I did know what Down's Syndrome was and that the only concern I had was the baby's heart and that I wanted to make sure that during the upcoming ultrasound, the heart health would be a priority. She assured me that yes, that of course would be evaluated in the ultrasound. I said alright then, let's go ahead with the ultrasound then and get everything done, "everything's going to be alright."<br />
The ultrasound technician came in and started out the ultrasound by remeasuring all of the ventricles in the brain. She stopped. Did all of the measurements again and then said "well, I can't say anything officially, but all of the swelling is gone. I mean completely gone. What was measuring as a 10 is now well within the normal range of around 7. I am going to call for the doctors now instead of waiting until the end." While we waited for them to come in, she went through all of the other standard measurements for Down's Syndrome, especially those that had come back as "soft markers" for it in the previous ultrasound. Once they came in she went over all of the measurements and again did a quick version of the ultrasound for the doctors to see. They huddled together for a minute and then came back to the chair to let me know their findings. "Elizabeth, we can't explain it, but all of the swelling has disappeared and the brain seems to have corrected itself on its own. All of the previous measurements are now invalid and everything is measuring exactly perfect for a 100% healthy baby girl." They all shook my hand and mumbled about how pleased they were to give me the happy news and how they just couldn't explain the changes.<br />
I got all cleaned up and got my shirt all situated and the ultrasound technician again told me how glad she was for me and said that the baby's profile and facial features were truly the prettiest that she had ever seen. She shook my hand and sent me back out to the front counter to get all checked out.<br />
As I was driving home, everything that had happened in the last several hours hit me. How amazing! Heavenly Father truly knows each of us, even/especially my little baby still growing inside of me. Miracles happen! Heavenly Father will always give us what we need and what can handle. Heavenly Father knew that our family needed this unplanned little baby. He knew more than us how much this little girl would bless and strength us before she was even born. As trying as this pregnancy has been, for me especially, I know that in the end I will be stronger and that I hopefully will be able to appreciate this beautiful little gift more and more everyday. I know that even if this baby had been born with any of the possible chromosomal defects, that it would have been alright. "Everything will be alright," has been a very recurring sentence in our house the past five months. And I know that because Heavenly Father loves us and knows us, that He will help us and that with His help, "everything will be alright."Dustyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11341658939035820106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4403044393555612486.post-80761789821211993982015-07-22T09:53:00.001-04:002015-07-22T09:53:40.559-04:00Happy 5th Birthday Embry Elizabeth!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Happy Birthday Emme! Emme is a spunky, creative little girl who ALWAYS has a song (of her own creation) to sing. Emme gives the best hugs! Every time she hugs you, you can just feel her giving you all of her love and warmth. She is a great big sister and is super excited for the new baby to be born. Emme is a helper and always looks out for her younger siblings. Emme is a daddy's girl 100% and she dotes on him and always takes care of him. Emme loves Primary and she says the most thoughtful and special prayers at family prayer. Emme is excited to start all day kindergarten this school year, she really wants to eat hot lunches like Elijah and the other big kids at school. We love Emme and are so very grateful to have her in our family. </div>
