One Month Old and Barely Alive!

Here is Maddox's belly after an eight hour feeding frenzy... All bundled up!
Waving hi to everyone!


Poor Maddox has had a very rough start (as have Mom and Dad into the parenthood rolls). Maddox has RSV and has to have an inhaler every four hours to open his airways so he can breathe. It has been really scary for us, but he is doing so so so much better and actually smiled today and ate without me having to make him. We are so grateful for priesthood blessings and a brother-in-law and home teacher who are doctors!

Oh that poor little guy. RSV was my biggest fear with Carter and luckily we didn't get it, but poor poor Maddox and poor poor mom.
Love the pics though, he is so cute!

That's so scary! I'm glad to hear he's doing a lot better though. We'll keep you all in our prayers.

We loved your Christmas letter and picture, thanks for remembering us!

Wow that is really scary. He is so cute. We didn't even know you had a baby. Good luck with everything.

He looks great! We can't wait to see him again, and I'm glad he's eating better. Tell Jeff that I think JM looks like him in the 4th picture.: )

How scary! We had no idea and we are glad he is feeling better. We love you guys. And JM (is that what we are calling him--I am just following Roz)is so adorable and it breaks my heart that we can't see him (and MR :)) and hold him. We love you guys!
