Kaylee's Debut!!


Hello everyone, I hope you like our page so far. I'm new at this so it may be a little wierd at first. Here is a little background info on Kaylee.
We are looking forward to sharing some of our moments as parents with everyone. Kaylee has been just a dream come true for us! Born Oct. 3, 2006 at 12:19am to the happiest Mommy & Daddy in the world. She was 5lbs10oz & 18.5in at birth. She is now 3 1/2 months old, 13lbs/221/4in and doing wonderful. Life started out a bit rough for her as she was born 5wks early at 35wks. I went into preterm labor at 33wks and was hospitlized for 12days before she was born. With the help of medication to stop contractions and very strict bedrest we were able to hold of delivery until she was a little more ready. Even though she was ready she was born with phenmonia. Only a 1% chance that would happen! Kaylee was in the NICU for 9days prior to being able to come home. She was on a ventilator, cpap, canula and finally just on her own breathing. She did very well and made lots of progress each day and got to come home on Oct.12,2006.

April, I have known you for most of my life, and NOTHING makes me happier than seeing you this happy. I am SO glad you and Jason finally got your dreams fulfilled! You both are amazing parents, and deserve all the happiness in the world.

Love the idea of a family Blog. I'm still waiting to "hug & squeeze" little Kaylee and this is a great way to "share" her w/ others. (No such thing as too much love!)...Your photos and words express how much of a blessing Kaylee is to you - even w/ the parenting challenges, she will bring you more joy every day. We are so happy for your whole family.

Our Family!
