Growing up

By -
For those of you who have followed our blog for a bit, you know Adalyn has been on the... skinny side of things. 

Well, she had been maintaining the 3% on weight from birth to about 9 months... and then... she kept getting taller, and stopped getting fatter. 

When that happens you drop off the chart- which is not such a good plan. And for kids with CP (cerebral palsy), they often have a difficult time gaining weight.

So... we are feeling SUPER lucky that she has gained some weight and is now in the:

6%!!!!

Watch the few month evolution of Adalyn's face and body- CRAZY!!!
Just after she got her cochlear implant at the end of July

A couple of weeks ago

Apparently being chubbier means happier too!


Just yesterday... She's beefed up a little. :D

Hello Family and Friends! If you haven't heard yet, our little baby girl Adalyn was born Tuesday, March 15th at about 2pm. She was born by emergency C-section (they knocked Nicole all the way out because there wasn't time for anything else) and was under a lot of distress. After a wonderful blessing from her Grandpa Hicken and Daddy she was life flighted to McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden. She is still in the NICU there but is making great strides each and every day.  Her mommy and daddy named her Adalyn Julene Anderson-- after her great grandma Anderson (Julene). She has already blessed their lives immensely and she has benefited so much from prayers and fasts of family and friends. She has a long road ahead of her, but she is a fighter! Her grandpa Hicken calls her his little Millie- because she is a miracle baby and in Spanish, miracle is Milagro. She is a miracle and we are so happy to have her.  Love you all!

Delivery Day

By -
Well folks- it's D-Day! After talking some more and discussing with us- our doctors (a team of OBs and Perinatologists) have decided that it is best for baby boy not to have any risks with the placenta and come today. So- He's going to be very early- they will have completed the steroids though, so that is helpful. But we all feel that this is the very best thing for HIM. I'll have a c-section- hopefully regular this time- this afternoon and we will have a baby boy by this evening. He will go straight to the NICU and we'll just see how he does to know more about how long he will be there. Again, thank you all for your comments, prayers, texts, phone calls. We appreciate all of you and your love and support for us! Love you all- remember we are in His hands. And who's better to be in.
