Tomorrow is the Big Day!

Just wanted to put in one last word about the carnival. It is going to be really fun, Sherri and our other friends have got a lot of fun stuff for the auction,for example KSL donated RENT tickets. We are really excited to be able to see everyone who has been praying for our incredible Teagan. The coordinates are 70th south and Grizzly Way (about 5200w.) It is inside the church, from 12-4.
I also wanted to thank a sweet friend, Sharese Johnson, she is my sister-in-law Jodi's little sister. Sharese is only 14, I think, She was really touched by Teagan's journey and took it upon herself to raise money for his surgeries and care. She made a cute flyer and took it around to her neighbors and friends and then went back to collect the donations, she raised about $600 from her neighbors and her and her friends donated all of their babysitting money. I can not thank her enough for her selfless act of service. I was really touched by her feelings for Teagan, she acted on her prompting and it will really help with his care. Thanks Sharese, that is what life is all about, you are a special girl to figure it out so young.

If we lived in Utah, we'd be there in two seconds! Good luck with it! And I hope you have an amazing turn out!

Enjoy the carnival... that is a fantastic idea!! Teagan looks like he's doing great. Glad to see that life at home is settling down and you are simply enjoying time with your babies.

The Glenn has been a tough one for us so far, but we are looking forward to a restful few years until it's time for stage 3.

Owen wasn't on a bottle before the Glenn...we tried but he was a HUGE spitter. So, now that we have the Glenn out of the way, we'll focus some time on getting rid of the NG tube. Between the Norwood and Glenn, my biggest focus was just plumping him up ANYWAY I could. Teagan seems to be doing a great job!!!!
