Stepping Out
This morning I decided to take a step out of my comfort zone. I get a little nervous trying out new things especially when I don’t know anyone else. Today Elijah and I took a drive over to White Salmon. We stopped by the library for baby/toddler story time. I didn’t know what to expect…

Nine Months (3/4 Year Old)
Our little guy turned 9 month over the weekend! We were away camping up in Hyalite Canyon, south of Bozeman for the holiday weekend, so we finally got our monthly shot accomplished today.

New Stage of Life

Home
Oh how I love traveling and experiencing new places. I can’t ever get enough of that. There how ever comes a time during all my travels where I look forward to coming home. Even during the most exciting trip that seems like it is going way to fast. There is just something about coming home…

Rooming In
Since my last post, Elijah has kept on improving with each day’s nursing. He kept growing stronger and stronger. We think that he finally decided that it would be nice to go home. I continued to be a little emotional. I would have my ups and downs. It was usually either I want to go…

Progress
I will combine a few days here to move the story along. Tuesday morning brought us the pleasant surprise of Elijah being extubated just as we came into the NICU. He also had an EKG performed to check on a heart murmur. He was much more alert and responding well to his first feedings of…
