Correction: Carrie at 21 weeks

Gavin was a bit off on his weeks. I was just 21 weeks in this photo. :)

This picture was taken before our latest Dr. Appointment. Isaac's expressions are kind of representative of how we've been feeling sometimes when we think about different aspects of our future. For the most part, I think our "expressions" are a bit more relaxed and at peace, but every once in a while . . . .

Our appointment was good overall. The babies all are doing well. The girl who had the minor kidney problem is measuring smaller (better) and only just above the size where the doctors become slightly concerned, so we praise the Lord for that!

The other girl, though, is significantly smaller than her siblings, but there was no evidence of her being in distress or having other problems. From what we've read online, low iron levels can hinder growth of the babies some as well as cause some other symptoms that Carrie is experiencing.

We are thankful, though, that Carrie is getting an iron infusion this morning, which will allow her body's stores to be replenished quickly, since the other forms of iron she has been taking have had no effect. We pray that will help with Carrie's energy level and appetite as well as the babies' growth and health.
