Please be praying

Ivy is doing really good. She started breathing kind of hard very early this morning, so she had to go to the nursery for oxygen. They did a couple blood tests so far this morning, and her white blood cell count is kinda high, so they are keeping an eye on her. It may be an infection. They will do another blood test at noon, and if nothing has changed, she may have to go into neo-natal. This is hard not having her in the room with us! We can visit her all we want in the nursery, but Lori gets tired, so we can't stay for too long. It is SO hard not to be able to hold her!
Everything should be fine, but there is a little bit of unknown, so its a little tough. Lori is handling it better than I, but thats usual. :)
Lori did an amazing job last night giving birth to our little princess! She made it through with only a local pain killer! I am so proud of her.
Hopefully I will have another update shortly after noon.

You're awesome, Lori (only a local painkiller)! We'll be praying for Ivy's breathing, etc. Congrats and hope to talk more soon.
