Our Baby Jacob Warren






Our precious baby was born on July 27, 2008 @ 1:23 a.m. He was born 5 weeks early and was really anxious to get here! He is a beautiful baby boy with a full head of hair and it's a dark ash blonde. He looks just like his brother, Hunter and his daddy. The only features that he has of me, are his big, long fingers and feet! :) Hmm... go figure.

He weighed 5 lbs 2 oz. and was 17 1/2 inches long. Because he was so early, his lungs weren't developed completely, they had to put a c-pap on him for a couple of hours, and he still was having a hard time breathing, so they had to put a ventalator on him for a couple of days. Later on, we found out that he had pnemonia. He was hooked up to i.v's, oxygen and a pic line in his leg. It was so sad to see him that way.

Here are some pictures of him when he was born and was getting transfered to Utah Valley Medical Center in Provo.
