Tonight Ivy and I were at Babies R Us and the picture lady asked if we wanted a free picture...she was bored. We said yes. We tried to hide the stitches as best we could by positioning. Thought you would like to see her.

Update on the dog bite
Today we went to the plastic surgeon to see how Ivy's stitches were healing. The doctor was very pleased with how they looked. She said they would fall out on their own in time, that the area would feel a little hard for a while and that once it was all healed it would be very red for about 18 months. We are extremely thankful that our little girl is doing so well. She has even asked to pet the doggies we have seen this week. It seems that she isn't emotionally scared which is wonderful. Thank you all for your prayers this week.

Easter Weekend
Wow I haven't blogged in a very long time. I will try to bring you all up to speed.
Yes, I am still pregnant with a son. Pregnancy is a very hard time for me. I am just one of those girls who is pretty much sick from day one to the end. He is due May 28th, 2009 so we are close to getting to meet him though. Very excited.
This last weekend was Easter weekend. We attended the 6pm Good Friday service at our church Mars Hill.
Saturday morning we went to the Woodland Park Zoo to their Annual Bunny Hop. Steve, Jess, PJ and CJ Mulkey and Jessica's sister Christina met us there. Ivy and PJ hunted for eggs, Ivy rode on the Carousel with Greg and then we went and looked at some animals.
Saturday evening Ivy went to Sam and Dorothy's house to spend the night and get some grandparents time.
Sunday morning we met them at church for Easter service at 11:15am. After church we went home to pick up some food and quickly headed over to Sam and Dorothy's for Easter dinner. This year it was quite a small crowd. Just them, Aunt Pat, Uncle Corey and us...
After dinner Ivy and the dog Hershey went into the kitchen together at the same time while "PA" was cleaning up after dinner. No one is sure what happened cause PA had his back turned and the rest of us were in the living room...Ivy was bit by the dog. The CT came by normal and she did not lose any parts, ie. eye or ear. She has multiple scratches around her left temple and ear and one large wound that had to have stitches. We did have a plastic surgeon come and do the stitches though so hopefully the scare will be minimal.
We Praise the Lord that he was with her yesterday and that the incident could have been so much worse.
We ask for prayers against attack from the enemy, that we wouldn't dwell in would-have, could-have, should-have thoughts. We ask for prayers that Ivy would heal both physically and emotionally from this situation. We also ask for prayers for my parents as it was their dog and they not only got rid of her but also feel terrible. Please pray that the Lord would get the utmost glory from this situation. The scripture I keep remembering is 1Thes. 5:18 Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
