Welcome Home Baby Jackson!

Yesterday I was able to Bring Jackson Home from the Hospital. We spent Two weeks at Primary Children's Medical Center, It was quite a Journey. I never expected to bring him home so soon. I can tell you that it was a miracle, The Lord has blessed us so much. He truly hears and answers our Prayers. Thank you every one for all you thoughts and prayers you sent out for us.

Here is Jackson today, it is not the best Picture and He probably needs a Hair cut too. But he is doing well except for a little pain and sometimes a belly ache.

This Picture was before surgery, we spent a week at the Hospital before they were able to get him in for his operation. We went in because his oxygen saturation kept falling. At this time he was staying about 60%, normally we are supposed to be at 95%. So they had him on High Flow oxygen at 7 liters which is a lot. And it really blows hard in your nose, but he was a champ and didn't once complain. All the Doctors and Nurses could not believe how happy he was all the time.


Here he is the Day after surgery, They preformed the operation on Thursday, April 30 2009. As you can see he was hooked up to a lot of tubes and wires. They operation went very well. It was hard to see him like this.

My poor little Guy!

Thursday May 7, a week after surgery was my Birthday. And I had a wonderful surprise from some of my wonderful Family. They Came to visit us and threw me a little birthday celebration. It was so nice to have some visitors, It really brightened my day. Thank you so much!

Me, Kristine, Thomas, Skylie, Isabelle, Marsha, and Jackson in the Wagon.

The Best Birthday Present of all was the wonderful recovery of My sweet Baby.

Primary Children's Hospital was such a great place. There were so many great Doctors and Nurses, I can't thank them enough. I also met so many other families with similar situations and it was so wonderful to see there faith and strength. I can't believe all the little children there with illnesses were so strong and they wouldn't let anything get them down. I sure learned a lot the last 2 weeks and have gained a greater testimony of my Lord, and Savior Jesus Christ and of His Gospel. I know with out a doubt that it is True!!

A Hair Cut For Brian

Today we thought Brian was in much need for a Haircut.

We tried a Mowhawk first, but thought that might not go over well with the Grandmas.

And since it is getting warmer we decided just to buzz it off.
So Here is our little Monk!

Bye Bye Hair!

A Fun Weekend Filled With Birthdays and Family!

Happy Birthday Grandma Eiko!

Saturday was Grandma Eiko's Birthday and she came up to our house to Celebrate. We always have fun when Grandma Comes!

Eating Some good food!

Just having Fun! Brian loves playing with his friends and Cousins.

Jackson is 4 Months Old

Today Jackson had his 4 month check up. He now weighs 11 lbs 13 oz and is 23 inches long. He was put back on Oxygen two weeks ago. We go see the cardiologist next week and hopefully then we will know a little more about his next surgery and when it will be. But for now he is doing really well and is a wonderful baby. We love him so much!

Dancing With the Stars

Brian still loves to dance. He like to watch "Dancing with the Stars" and tries to dance like them. He doesn't even come close, but I think it is cute.

Happy Birthday Brian!

Brian turned two on February 16th, I thought this was a cute video. We practiced and practiced blowing out candles. He kept wanting us to relight them so he could blow them out again.

Another Funny Thing

Today I was getting ready to go out and I had put Jackson in his car seat all bundled up. I then went into the Kitchen when I turned around I noticed the Dog food bowl was empty. At first I thought Oh no Brian dumped it all over the carpet. But I was wrong, I went back in to living room to find Jackson in his car seat all covered in dog food. He never cried though. Needless to say Brian was sent to his room. And Jackson got a bath. I didn't get a Picture so you will Just have to use you imagination. Any way it is never boring when you have little Kids around.
