Jadon's First PROCEEDURE: Praise Report

Jadon had his first check up with his pediatrician today and things went really well. He's gaining weight and doing good. He even had his first little procedure done to him today and did so well. He was born tongue tied and needed to have the little piece of skin between his tongue and the floor of this mouth snipped so that he could move his tongue with a little more freedom. So to perform the proceedure the doctor had to use surgical scissors and cut that piece of skin. And he did so good. He's a strong little man. Thanks for all your prayers
Please continue to pray that he would be alert enough for feedings and that his little body would grow big and strong. Blessings ~

Afternoon Naptime

Is there anything more precious in all of the world?

Asleep in Mamma's Arms @ Home

48 hours after we arrived at the hospital, we were discharged and sent home with this incredible gift of God's grace. We had a very uneventful car ride home, and arrived to show Jadon his new home. Soon after we arrived, mamma got some much needed rest, while Jadon and daddy hit the road to run some errands and do man stuff like... shopping at Babies R Us. But we're all home safe now and enjoying our new family. Praise the Lord!

Friends and Visitors

Genesis (bottom), Katie (Middle), & Sarah (top) were among the many friends and visitors who came to hang out with us at the hospital. Among these were: Matt Kehler, Brea Pritchett, Pastor Garth, Marilynn Fernandes, Pastor Damian, Grandma Laurie, and Christopher Yerziklewski. These were welcomed faces to our seemingly long, but comfortable stay at the hospital.
