Colt is estimated to be weighing it at 6 pound 13 ounces. How amazing! We were told by the surgeon that the smallest baby he did surgery on was 5 ½ pounds so I am glad they are thinking Colt it bigger. I was hoping for an 8 pound baby, for some reason in my mind the bigger he is the better chance he has during surgery. I finally picked out a middle name. Samuel will be his middle name.
Samuel has many different meaning ranging from God’s Heart to asked of God. I read the below bible verse and it was my sign that Samuel is to be our boy’s middle name.

1 Samuel 27-28
"I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him,
So now I give him over to the Lord.
For his whole life, he will be given over to the Lord."

We decided to have Colt baptized before he goes into surgery. James Williams at First Fire has agreed to baptize him. Bless him! To me baptizing him is a sign of our devotion to God that we are going to raise our son knowing and believing in him.

Bradley and I have been pretty busy. They are having me do an NST stress tests twice a week, going to the doctor once a week, and seeing the pediatric cardiologist every other week, seems like the time is flying by, our little boy with be here before we know it.
Last week we toured the NICU and PICU at UK. I thought I was so prepared, I read all the information that other heart moms provided and looked at pictures of what to expect to see. Unfortunately, this is one of the times in life you can never be prepared for. I saw 2 babies in the NICU both hooked up to ventilators and I just lost it. It was overwhelming. As always Bradley was there to calm and comfort me. I really think the Lord has worked through him to always lift me up when I am down. I pray that I can show the same strength when he is down.
Bradley is not only an amazing husband, but he will be a wonderful father.
