Reuben loves his messy play and he now can do it in the comfort of his home...he is really good he even put on his apron which always makes me laugh as he is doing painting for 10 long :)) minutes. It almost takes him longer to get ready...

NEWS

Hello! Reuben has been a really good boy! He contiues to enjoy nursery and his CARS toys home.
We have made a decission this week to spend more time with Reuben so we have now taken him out of nursery for 2 days and hope that we would have some quality time together before baby Zac arrives.

Hello! Reuben egyre jobb kisfiu! Tovabra elvezi a ovit es a sok uj autokajat ovi utan. Ezen a heten azt a dontest hoztam hogy jovo het elejetol ithon lesz Reuben 2 nap egy heten es csak 3 at megy oviba. Ezt tobb oknal fogva is de a legfontosabb az hogy szeretnek vele idot toltenni es folkeszitenni Zackarias erkezesere...es addig egyutt toltusnk par nagyon szep napot. Ugyanakkor szeretnem figyelmemel kiserni ezt a periodust amiben latom szepen fejlodik.



Its been a hard week at the same time: last week we had the news of baby Smith nr 2 being a boy..HURRAY so Zachariah it is or maybe Zacary?! (Zac for now). At the same time we were told there are slight but significant abnormalities with and around his brain in that he has too much fluid for his age and size etc. It is apparently normal at boys to have more liquid but this is borderline..Tests were ordered and we were told to wait til today when we would have a more detailed scan, hopefully the results of blood tests and the view of a consultant. So its been a nerve wrecking week! A lot to think about, take it and just generally living with the unknown after all we know very little. We (me and Jon) have been thinking about adjusting to special needs and looking at how we really feel about things. I am not sure if its maternal instincts or that stron desire to protect this inocent "perfect gift from God" but I feel nothing but LOVE and READINESS to accept whatever comes my way...and it looks like J feels the same. I have been thinking a lot about how life might be (although its hard when you don;t have clear indications) of my own capacities and abilities...and whichever way I kept turning I felt that LOVE CONQUERS ALL. This week I felt held and loved particularly by God. Thousands of encourageing things have happened and some really special touches from God (without making it too spiritual). One of the things that one thinks is "am I paying for something I have done?; is this something I might have done myslef?" - every time any of these thoughts have occured I heard the gentle voice of God (I believe) in me that says "he does not pay according to our inequities" which I think sums up how I see God myslef. Today more bad news...baby seems to have slight abnormalities at gut and kidneys, I think the summing up of what was said would be that of in the best case scenario these things will dissapear as baby grows (and might have happened due to viral infections etc) worse case scenario is that there are chromozomal abnormalities which at least to say could be brain damage. I feel from what I heard the options are endless..of what could or could not be. The consultant offered me an amniocintesis test but I refused it as it would only just help in diagnosing if at all there is chromozomal abnormality and what that was. I do not feel its worth the invasion the risk of misscarriage as to be honest with you I would not change my attitude that of accepting whatever it will be....and even if that means living in uncertainties and waiting longer. For now my duty is to love this unborn "perfect gift" and to nurture him. My duty is to make all I can to help him towards a healthy life but it is God who is able to do everything I can just do what I can. So I do what I can (WE DO) the rest is up to God. We are back in three weeks for more monitoring more tests and more news....until then we are waiting...and anticipating enjoying his kicks and signs of LIVING and FIGHTING.

Elegge nehez het volt ez a mult het, ugyanis miutan megtudtuk hogy kisfiunk lesz azt is megtudtuk hogy abnormalitasokat vettek eszre nalla ugyanis a agyaban talalt folyadek tobb mennyisegu mint amit normalisnak velnek itt. nagyon keves informacioval kellett a hetet toltenni es vartuk a mai napot amikor ugyanis a ver vizsgalatott vartuk, ujjabb bovebb ultrahangot es consultans-al valo beszelgetest.... Hat tobb mint 4 orat toltottunk korhazban...ujra tesztek....ultrahang es cnsultans al valo beszelgetes. Erdekes egesz heten azon toprengtem milyen lesz hogyan lesz minden de az igazsag olyan keveset tudtunk hogy egyszeruen barmerre gondoltam konkretat nem tudtam tehat mindeg oda tertem visza hogy "Isten tokeletes ajandeka" barmilyen tollunk nekunk furcsa formaban megjeleno is elfogadas kerdese. IGazabol hogyan is tudna valaki valamit elfogadni mikor azt sem tudja mi az amit kap? Egyelore azt tudhatjuk hogy eletett kaptunk es ezt jelzi is a kis Zakarias odabent ugyanis nagyon mozgekony es sokat jelezz nekunk. Csomo gondolkodas kozepette ugye az ember nek szembe kell neznie azzal is hogy "buntetes e ez? figyelmesztetes?- atok?" de barmikor is gondoltam ezekre mintha halottam volna fulembe zsongo szivembe rezdulo hangot ami azt mondta: " amilyen tavol van napkelettol napnyugat olyan mesze veti el tollunk a mi buneinket"...meg az hogy "nem a mi vetkeink szerint cselekszik velunk"...es sok sok mas. Nem tudom anyai oszton, vagy az a megvedo anyai szeretett de mintha egyszeruen nem is lenne kerdes reszemre az hogy eppen ugy fogadjam el "az o tokeletes ajandekat" ahogy azt kapom....csak azt erzem szeretem ezt a picit es kesz vagyok ot tokeletesnek latni akkor is ha orvosok, kivul allok remulgetnek es remisztennenek. Isten nem lenne igazsagos ha a hivoknek es hivoket mindeg mindentol megovna vagy allanod csodakat tenne velok...ugyanakkor az o igazsagossaga egy mas dolog...amit emberi esz ugysem foghat fel mert ugyanis barmilten zseni is vagyok Istennel szembe csak egy fogyatekos ember vagyok...viszont mennyire szuper hogy o tudja a hajunk szallat is es nem oltja ki a pislogo lampat...hogy jobban gondott visel rollunk mint barki mas!
Na hat ilyen gondolatokkal teli szivvel mentunk be a korhazba ahol 2 ora ultrahang utan megtudtuk tobb rendellenesseg van ugyanis a gyomor es a vese is elegge roszul mukodik...aztan jott a tovabbbi magyarazat hogy megsem tudjak...hogy meg kinoheti, hogy valtozo minden, hogy talan megis komoly dolog ele nezunk es kesuzljunk fol ra ugyanis chromozomai rendellenesegek is lehetnek....phewwww na hat en csak nyeltem. Elore tudtam ma folajanjak az amniosyntesis teszt et is ami ugye elegge betoro invasiv teszt ami abbol al hogy folyadekbol leszivnak kicsit de ezzel legtobszor az jar hogy mezavarva a babat es a meh mukodeset a nok tobsege elvetel termeszetes modon...(hu hogy ez mennyire roszul hangzik)....hat az orvos mondta probaljuk meg. Kerdeztem tolle mire jo ez?! Azt mondta pontosan megtudni mirol is van szo?! Hat kis gondolkodas utan J re neztem aki csovalva fejet azt mondta kivarjuk szepen....nem surgetjuk a dolgokat...(Hala Istennek hisz en is eppen igy gondoltam) nem kerdes hogy megtudva a diagnozist megtartjuk e Zakariast....o mar a mienk es marad addig ameddig Isten jonak latja.
Az orvos meglepodve de ugy lattam orommel vett tudomast errol. Azt mondta a szulok legtobje azonnal veges a babaval es tovabb lepnek...milyen kar!? foleg akkor ha ennyi keves informacio tol mar keszek lemondanni a kis eletrol. Hat egyelore ujra vert vettek...ujabb tesztek....es harom het mulva ujra megyunk....talan tobbett megtudunk. Addig ugy erzem es utanna is egy dolgom van, szeretni....apolni, vedni es orulni " a mi tokeletes ajandekunk nak". Mi barmit is teszunk ugy is hianyos csak az a tokeletes es jo amit Isten tesz de a tollunk telhetott hadd tegyuk epp ott ahol vagyunk abban amiben vagyunk. Bizok Istenunkben hogy amit rank biz azt el tudjuk vegezni, amire elhiv arra folkeszit es marad annak akinek Ismerjuk....MINDENHATO SZERETO ATYANKNAK.
