We went in today to get Judah tested for food allergies...that was one of the hardest and scariest things I have done! First of all, the nurse had about 12 tubes sitting on the counter ...I asked if she was going to fill all of those up? Good thing she said no! I was about to run out of there! Then she clearly did not know what she was doing...I think Judah was their first baby... she got another nurse to help and they kept going back and forth about how much blood should we take? Does this look like a good vein? Oh my goodness! I said something like "I guess you don't get very many babies in here?" They said NOTHING (obviously he was their first!) So I just told them "I bet it's really hard working on a baby.... I wouldnt want to." She breathed a sigh mixed in with a "yeah" Then she holds him down , takes a deep breath and says "Everybody ready??" Of course the whole time they were going back and forth I was praying! Everything went smooth after that thank you Jesus! Judah just cried a few seconds when she poked him and then went back to giving her those flirty eyes :) He's such a strong boy. Results will be in a week. See my green band aid?
There is truly no way to explain the meaning to the name Judah Ethan, unless I tell you about the one who gave me life, gives me strength, is the reason I take every step and every breath. He is the only one who has truly always been there for me and promises to never leave nor forsake me. He is my provider, healer, comforter, father, and my friend. There aren't enough words to sing His praises! I wish there was some way to give Him the glory and honor He deserves but He deserves perfection and I am far from it. I dedicate my whole life to Him. If He never does another thing for me He is still and will always be worthy of all my praise! I named my son Judah Ethan because Judah means to praise, Ethan means consistently or steadfast. His name is a reminder of how good God is. No matter what we go through God is still God and He deserves everything we have to give. I want my son's life to glorify God in everything...even his name :) I dedicate my son, my whole life, everything I have to Jesus.
Psalm 34: 1-4 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
So adorable! I think he favors Matthew in the pic with his frog shirt. He usually favors you. Looking forward to the NAM update.
