No news yet
It's been a long day. Mason did great. We don't know anything yet, and I probably won't know until Monday I am guessing. They said it would be 48 hours. I am supposed to call Dr. Hanson tomorrow (Mason's pediatrician) and update her on how he is doing, so if they know anything they'll tell me. But I'm not holding my breath.
They did end up having to put him under, but they didn't have to use an I.V. They just used gas. I figured they would, because they tell you to not let them sleep before, so that maybe they'll sleep through the MRI. Well try telling a 3 month old, hungry baby to lay there and go to sleep. Yeah right! He was a champ though, and recovered quickly. However, it was more of a process than I was expecting. They treat it like it's outpatient surgery. I don't know if it's because he was a baby or what. I didn't think an MRI was that big of a deal.
As soon as I know something, I'll let you all know. I appreciate your prayers, and to those of you that called, thank you as well. We are definitely loved, that is for sure.

On a different note, say a prayer for me. I'm just in a weird place. Not really a good place, not really a bad place...just a weird place. I think a lot of it was just today, and being by myself through the process. It sucked, and it made me mad. I've been reading the Bible a lot, which is good. I am just finding myself on a quest for more answers. And not answers to my situation, just spiritual answers. And really I don't know what questions I'm asking, so therefore I don't know what kind of answers I'm looking for...but I'm still looking. I just want more spiritually, and I want to be more, and the scary thing is the last time I was in that frame of mind of wanting more is when my world turned upside down. Be careful what you pray for, right? :) But seriously, I think this is a good thing. I know that searching for God only brings you to a better place, it's just kind of confusing for me right now. Some days I feel so bipolar!!! I mean I have good days and bad days. And then I tell myself that I'm not bipolar, I am just a person who has gone through a very large amount of poo in the last 9 months (wow...9 months!!!) and is doing the best I can to survive so that one day I can thrive. And I will...yes, I will survive, and one day I will thrive. And searching for God is the beginning of that. I just need to clear my head, and really I need a good nights sleep. I know that will help a ton. When I don't sleep, I don't function. So I am going to do my best to get the kiddos down early, so that I may also get down early! Thanks for everything!

I am praying that you do get some rest. I know that God will show you what you need when you need it. I am always amazed at His timing. I am also praying for good news from the doc.

It's your attitude that I liked the first time I "met" you!!!
"Seek & you will find". When we are truly seeking HIM ..... HE will show up in ways we couldn't have imagined.

Poor Mason. It's not fair that a baby should have to go through stuff like this. I hope everything turns out okay, I'm sure it will. Try to get some rest and if you need anything over the weekend let me know. I will do what I can.
I'm praying for you and for little Mason. We love you!
Saying some prayers. Miss you!
