Cute little feet!


We had an appointment with Dr. Mayberry this morning and got to see Cannon. He's growing so fast. He is about 1 lb 14 oz, and 10-11 inches long. I just loved getting to see him again. His feet look so much bigger than the ultrasound at 12 weeks when we got a picture of the soles of his feet. Still no sign of clubbing. (Great news!!) We could see a clearer picture of his spine. There is a space approximately 1 1/2 cm on his spine, this is the lesion or opening. He still saying lumbar-sacral level. Which is good. I am assuming that they expect the lesion to grow as Cannon does, but the way I look at it...1 1/2 cm is a small whole for God to close in the next 4 months. Which is what we are continuing to pray for. We are getting ready to head to Ft. Worth tonight and will meet with the neurosurgeon in the morning. We should be able to find out more of what to expect after birth. So I better get off here so I can get ready. I'll update with tomorrows new later!

Ali,
Congratulations on becoming a mommy! I was checking on your parents after the hurricane and Cheri shared the good news! We will be praying for Cannon and his doctors. Thanks for taking the time to post your progress. This is a great way for distant friends and family to know exactly what to pray for.
