Lots to be thankful for....

Today all three of my oldest kids headed to Gingerbread for the first time! As we were getting ready to leave Port said, "Mom! What are you and Halle going to do all day?!"
Great question Port:-) Actually Halle has two important doctor appointments today. Port yelled at Haynes and ran to Halle. He laid hands on her and said, "Jesus, we just declare that Halle will be healed completely before she sees the doctor today." I love how God uses my sweet kids to encourage my heart!
Halle and I headed to Children's for appointments with the ENT and Genetics.

ENT
Halle weighs 11.3!
Her breathing sounds amazingly perfect
They discharged us from having to be rechecked for laryngomalacia!
*Dr. Glade said, "I really haven't seen a patient recover from this before a year usually. This is amazing!"

Genetics
We met with the geneticist and they measured Halle to be 22 inches long! They determined that they were going to do another more specific blood test to determine what part of chromosome 7 is missing. We were thrilled that they were offering to do a more in-depth study to confirm that Halle is healed! When we actually started talking to the specialist she seemed a little unsure of what to say to us. Since we have run most of the tests, Halle has passed, she seems to be doing well developmentally, and they couldn't really tell us what features resembled William's syndrome...she just told us we should come back in about 6 months to check up.

We are beyond thankful for great report! Halle has been healed of laryngomalacia!!! She is continually growing and getting bigger every single day! We sent that blood work off and are expectant that they will come back with results they can't explain...chromosome 7 will be where it's suppose to be!

"Our God is in the heavens, and he does as he wishes."
Psalm 115:3
