Jacob in the car seat

in these 3 pictures, we had to put him in the car seat to test and make sure that he could breath and everything for 90 minutes. He was not a happy camper as you can see! It was also hard to see him with an I.V. in his head and tubes connected to him.

Aug. 6th

Can I just say that it's so nice when both boys are taking naps together?? That's when I can get the house re-organized and then maybe take a cat nap.
We are still getting used to the change of a brand new baby in our home. Last week, I was at the hospital by myself, waking up every 4 hours on the clock, and going back and forth from the hospital to my house, was a little hard not being able to see Ryan and Hunter.
But.... I am so greatful to a wonderful mother and mother-in-law that take such good care of me and my family! Thanks so much moms!
It has been alot of fun watching Hunter kiss Jacob on the head and running practically over to him when he cries to see what the matter is. I think that he is going to be a big, protective brother.
I need to have ryan or myself to take pictures of Hunter holding Jacob soon so that i can put more picutres on our blog.
Here are a few more pictures.

more pictures

I thought that I would sit down while I had a few minutes and post some up to date picures. :)

We got home on Sunday August 3rd. I'm relieved that I don't have to stay at the hospital anymore. Staying there for 5 nights without Hunter and Ryan to be with was enough!

Now, that we are home, I feel overwhelmed with having 2 little boys, but I know that I will get used to it. :)

Hunter is already such a big help. He loves Jacob already and loves to kiss him on the head! It'll be interesting to see how Hunter changes and grows up as the days go by. Hopefully, he will interested to be potty trained soon so that I don't have to change diapers ALL day long!

Jacob has his days and nights mixed up and it seems like he is always fussy for something. But... I do have to say that he is such a miracle and i'm very greatful that he is here and with us!

Here are some pictures of the nurses giving him baths and then my mom giving him an actual bath in the sink.

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.

up date so far...

Well... it's sunday afternoon and i thought that I would up date our blog. This week has been a relaxing week. Not much has been going on. We go to Playgroup on wednesdays and that is about the busiest part of my week. We do however, get to go to the Kangaroo Zoo on Tuesday. We have never been, so that will be fun to explore.
I go into the doc. tomorrow ( Monday). I can't beleive that i'm 34 weeks along already! Yep! 4 more weeks to go! And... i'm counting down! I think that at this time of being pregnant, it can be the hardest cause I'm so ready to have this baby and not pregnant anymore. :)
Good luck to Candace and her baby! We are so excited for her!

Ryan has been busy with work, and with the wonderful husband that he is, he comes home and sometimes makes dinner for us! He is such a hard worker and such a wonderful husband! I don't know what i would do with out him.

Hunter is growing up too fast! He just keeps getting taller! There are a lot of people that comment on how big and tall he is for his age! I'm sure before christmas, I will have to buy him a new set of clothes and shoes. He is such a good boy and so easy to take care of!
I have been told that this next baby won't be that way. Let's just hope that he is! :)

Anyway... that is all for now. I will have to have ryan take picutres of my tummy before i have this baby to see how big I got and post them. :)

Hunter's so sleepy.

This picture was taken a couple of days ago. He had a 2 1/2 hour nap and I had to wake him up so that we could pick ryan up from work, and after I changed his diaper, this is what he did! He got comfortable and went back to sleep!

July 4th

Happy July 4th everyone! Where did the month of June go!? I just thought that I would give you an up date on how our 4th went.

That morning ,bright and early at 6:00 a.m., Ryan, his brothers' family and I went and saw the hotair balloons take off. It was pretty cool, and Hunter enjoyed see yogy bear and other balloons go up into the sky.

After the balloons were enough in the air, we left and found a parking spot for the parade. I think that I forgot how long a parade really was! It was 2 hours long! Talk about being hot and sweaty. Yuck! We had fun for the most part. Out of all of us, Hunter had a good time being there and watching all of the peopl e pass and the floats go by. Here are some of the pictures that ryan took.
