prayers for Judah

As we get closer and closer to Judah time I wanted to share the things I've been praying for him (and me) throughout the pregnancy. Obviously there are a few that have already been answered--at the top of that list is getting to Bangkok before going into labor and making it to full term. I praise God for those two things especially. But I wanted to share a few things that I hope you will join me in praying this last week as we wait for him.

-That he will not have to spend any time in the NICU. We are at one of the top hospitals in the world and the NICU here is excellent but I would like for one of my boys to not have to spend anytime there. I have never had the experience of spending my baby's first day with him and I would really like to.
-That the surgery goes smoothly and quickly for both of us. Ditto for recovery.
-Judah will do well with nursing from the very beginning. Both K and B did really well with nursing from the start and I would love to have that same success again.
-That we will have a an easy time transitioning as a family, especially since our first few weeks will be spent here in BKK and not in our home.
-We will be able to get all of the necessary documents for Judah as timely as possible so we can make that transition back home. And of course that once we get there we can get settled into a routine and create a new 'normal' for our family.

I would love for you all to send these up as prayers, good thoughts or whatever for Judah and our family. Thank you!
