A Happy Ending


The first week of Jackson's life was a little bit crazy. I had to start supplementing his feedings the day he came home from the hospital because he wasn't getting enough milk from me and didn't wet his diaper for twelve straight hours! So, that first week home we had to take him in to the pediatrician twice to make sure he was gaining weight. Then we had to take Madelynne in because she got Hand, Foot, and Mouth. The poor girl would cry every time she tried to eat due to all the sores in her mouth. She also had a fever of 103 and was really quite miserable. And to top it all off she was getting less attention from me because now she had to share my time with the baby. It was a crazy time and we never would have made it through if my Mom hadn't come to help out. Thanks Mom for everything! We love you!
Thank heavens for grandma!
