Ultrasound update---
I had my weekly ultrasound done on Thursday. This time they checked my doppler, fluid levels, and Winnies growth. My doppler number is still abnormal but did not increase anymore. My fluid count is all good so we are still on track for May 11th delivery. Baby girl weighs 3.6 lbs! They thought she would be at 3.5 lbs when born, so I was proud of her growth. It's the little things that bring us joy.
We cannot believe Winnie will be making her arrival in 10 days. We will be anxiously awaiting her arrival and pray that we can get some time to love on our girl. Family is so important to us and so far the hospital is allowing two people at a time from our immediate family to meet little Winn. All we want is to give Winnie the best quality of life in her time here that is filled with so much love.

Grateful Hearts
Last weekend my sister threw us a beautiful intimate shower. We could not have asked for a more perfect day to celebrate our girl. We had some of our nearest a dearest there to celebrate who have truly been a blessing during this difficult time. We received some really special gifts that will help us hold Winnie close to our hearts, always. After one of our appointments that felt so doom and gloom, Cory and I decided that we were not going to just live in constant worry and sadness. Winnie is still our girl and she is still a blessing that should be celebrated. We decided we wanted her to get everything she deserved and would get if it were a "normal" pregnancy. When we were asked if we wanted a shower, we said absolutely, we wanted to celebrate Winnie and have her be surrounded with love, that is exactly what we got. My sweet friends also gifted us a maternity shoot and we are so excited to hold onto those photos forever. They will remind us of the happiness our little girl brought to our lives before we even met her. Though this pregnancy hasn't been easy we are still blessed to have our little girl on the way.
Much love,
A, C, & W
