*Just For You*

“This is my prayer for all of us—'Lord, increase our faith.' Increase our faith to bridge the chasms of uncertainty and doubt. . . . Grant us faith to look beyond the problems of the moment to the miracles of the future. . . . Give us faith to do what is right and let the consequence follow.” -Pres. Gordon B. Hinckley

Beautiful Baby Boy :D



I think these pictures explain it all! These all were taken over this weekend. Its amazing because the pictures of just TJ look like a normal sized baby, but the pictures where he is being held he looks sooo small! He is doing so great. He has been taken off the ventilator and is now breathing on his own with just a little bit of oxygen to help. As you can tell by some of the pictures TJ has learned to smile!! He is very very happy to have the tube out of his lungs and off of his face. He has been smiling so much these last few days. Its hard not to think that he is feeling so much better and is so very very happy :D He is gaining weight and is now 4lbs 8 1/2oz. By the time he comes home he won't fit in any of the premie clothes we've been given..but we're ok with that! Thank you so much for all your prayers. They have been heard!

Love. at

    I can't believe how big he is getting and I am so glad he is off the vent. Is he starting to suck on the pacifier? That would be awesome. Keep us posted. You are all in our thoughts and prayers always. Love, Aunt Renee
