Anson update






My how time flies! Anson is a week old tomorrow. He is definitely the cutest baby in the world and keeps getting cuter every day! He is in NICU but he is doing really well. He currently has a feeding tube to help him get enough food. Once he starts eating enough by mouth we will be able to take him home! The dr. is saying about one more week till he can come home. We'll just wait and see what happens.

We feel very blessed by the Lord to have such a wonderful new addition to our family. We know heavenly father has answered our prayers, helping Anson get bigger and stronger. We also want to thank our family and friends for their love, support, and prayers in our behalf.

I think being a mom is one of the hardest but most rewarding things I've ever done. I wouldn't trade being a mom for anything, even my sleep.

well it's a good thing you wouldn't trade being a mom even for sleep, because you can pretty much guarantee sleep will be a minimum! But isn't that so true, being a mom is amazing and you can't possibly understand it until you're there! Congradulations again you two and I hope Anson keeps getting bigger and piggier (as in eating well...) and can come home soon!
