Baby JJ

UPDATE: JJ had the winter spirit today!!!  He is up to 4 lbs and eating all on his own from a bottle. He still needs a little oxygen while he eats but otherwise is doing really great!! We are still hoping he will get to come home next week.

Found out last night (Nov. 22) that my close friend from home had her baby 7 weeks early and an emergency c-section. Her water broke, they went to the hospital and right to surgery. He's just over 3lbs and 16 inches long. I actually had no idea she was pregnant. I don't get to see her much and the last time we were home, we spent all of our time with family as my parents were leaving on their mission. At any rate, he's in the NICU for a while and she's got a couple days in the hospital because they knicked her bladder trying to hurry and get him out. Much love and prayers for my sweet friend. I'm so grateful for modern medicine that saved her life and her baby's life. Baby JJ  - Jason Jr, what they are calling him for now.
