Adelaide Joy - Jan. 19

Adelaide Joy came into our world Jan 19, and we are so  happy. 






 Lexi had a scheduled C section down at Timpanogas hospital in Orem.  Her mom-Rebecca and Kaitlyn came to town from Michigan.      Little Lady Joy has had quite a time of it ever since her first scream at 8:00 am.   8 minutes later and Lady was rushed to the NICU with all sorts of issues, an infection that they are fighting with two antibiotics, a high heart rate, and a high respiratory rate…so she has been on a cpap machine, that created a leak in one of her lungs, but hopefully will heal it self.  (She is now on regular oxygen tubes. )  She has low red blood cells .  She should be around 60 and she is  29, if it gets to 25 then she will need a blood transfusion, and in the mean time they are doing a treatment plan.  So…. Lexi has yet to feed her and really the only thing that calms Lady down is skin to skin with momma and daddy… they are all working that out together.   Adelaide will be in the NICU atleast til Thursday and then we shall see.   Lexi and Monson are feeling over whelmed, but very blessed and taken care of at the same time.  TAYLA  has been spending time with Landon and Alex and the kids and we are so grateful for them.  We are also grateful for Monson’s job and that he gets 10 weeks paid paternity leave.  This will definitely come in handy.
