Ruthy [& Parker] : Part III

We completed Ruthy's photo series with little Parker Penny!  This three part series was inspired by a photo series I saw on Pinterest via this blog: Baby Space.  Part 1:  the newly pregnant woman with a positive pregnancy test; Part 2:  the baby bump;  Part 3:  the baby!  



Parker is in a harness, as you might notice in some of the photos.  Ruthy wrote on her blog
The last 14 days have been a journey; mostly filled with awe, wonder, love and joy--mixed with moments of fear, frustration and heartache. I sometimes still can't believe I have a daughter. I look down at this blonde haired, blue eyed girl and think how did she come from me? She has a peaceful spirit--I feel blessed so far that she's not really fussy. We've had a couple of rough nights, but for the most part I'm getting adequate sleep and she sleeps between 3 and 4 hour stretches. The harness and her hip dysplasia are by far the most challenging thing I've dealt with. I've cried tears of anger and frustration over this contraption that I should be thankful for. Every day is getting better, though. Each day I seem to be able to maneuver around it a little better and cry a little less. I pray over her body every time she nurses that God will perform a miracle and heal her hips - and my heart.
If you're the praying type please keep Ruthy, Andy and Baby Parker in your prayers.  I have faith that Parker will be healed and that brace will come off.  We're so happy that she's here and that mama and baby are doing well!  Love you!
