Prayer Request

I had lots of really cute and funny things to update with tonight but they will have to wait.
I had to take Walker to the doctor today and turns out he has strep throat...nothing some meds can't fix.
However, he also has a soft mass type thing on the lower back left side of his head...almost where his head and neck meet.
The doctor did not seem overly concerned but is ordering an ultrasound tomorrow. She said that fatty tissue masses are very common in babies and that she thinks this is what it is but that she needs the ultrasound to make sure everything checks out ok.
As a mom, you can imagine that I am all over the place emotionally. I am not even going to get into all that, just please pray for our sweet boy and our little family. We know God is in control and with us in this very moment.
I know I have freaked alot of people out with my status on facebook asking for prayer and everyone is writing wanting to know what's going on, so I figured one post here would cover all the responses. I'll be sure to update when we know more.

Hey sweetie!
I am praying for Walker and you guys too! And it might make you feel better to know that we took Logan to the Dr. not too long ago because he had a soft lump in that same exact spot. We were terrified. However, it turned out to be an inflamed lymph node. The Dr. said they were extremely common and not to even worry about it. Hope you get some good news quickly!!! Again, you are in my prayers.
