Day 70, August 15th 2009




































I learned a new way to "wear" Jadon. This way, with him on my back instead of my front I can get more unpacking done. He seems to like it back there.

Day 69, August 14th 2009

























Love the buzzed hair!

Day 68, August 13th 2009

























Not so happy to be entertained by his brothers.

Day 67, August 12th 2009

















































We got together for a Bradley class reunion. While I was pregnant with Jadon I attended a Bradley birth class given by my friend Sadie, she was getting re-certified so she invited me to attend the class for free. I had never taken a birthing class before.

In the pictures are Charlotte with her son Xavier (born 3/6/09) and Jadon and I. We made good memories during the course of the class and our pregnancy.

Day 66, August 11th 2009


























Jadon still finds comfort with his hands in little fists on his face. That's how he was born.

Day 65, August 10th 2009

























Gotta love that fat little face.

Day 64, August 9th 2009

























Sleeps all day and all night.

Day 63, August 8th 2009


























I was wearing Jadon and slipped him off so I could finish painting furniture for the boys room.

Day 62, August 7th 2009































Jadon is 2 months old today! It was a cool day. I was able to set Jadon down for a few minutes in the kitchen while I moved boxes around.

Day 61, August 6th, 2009































Today we moved. I briefly set Jadon down in his 10 mo. old cousin Preston's chair while I moved boxes. What a mess it was moving 3 households at the same time. My sister and I switched homes, she lived here at my parents and is now living in my home, I live in my parents home and my parents live in another home they own in NE Portland.

Day 60, August 5th 2009


























Today I solicited help from our sweet neighbor (whom we will miss very much) Anna. She wore Jadon in her home for a while so I could get some packing and cleaning done in preparation for our move.

Day 59, August 4th 2009































Snoozing in daddy's arms.

Day 58, August 3rd 2009

























Jaren with Jadon. Today Jadon had a dr. appointment as a follow up to his hospital stay. He is 25 inches long and weighs 15 pounds, he's almost doubled his birth weight of 8 lbs 4 oz. He is in the 95%. A big, healthy, happy boy!

Day 57, August 2nd 2009










































Today was a very special day for our family. Jadon got his name and blessing in church today. Grandpa Graham, Steve Mortenson, Bishop Hymas, and Brother Mills
were in the blessing circle with Paul who gave him his blessing. He was blessed with wisdom to get through this life, a love of learning and that he would always get along with his brothers and sisters. Jadon wore the same outfit his daddy and two older brothers wore when they were blessed. Today was also Jaren's 7th birthday.

At the Chautauqua festival parade that we attend annually. We always sit in front of the Kuraults home with other members of our ward.

Day 55, July 31st 2009

























One of Pauls co-workers gave us this chair. I LOVE having a bouncy chair to set Jadon in, he is not too fond of it.

Day 54, July 30th 2009

























Jaren is holding Jadon. Jenea gave Jadon these tinker toys to hold. The kids thought this was quite a funny thing as he kept putting the toys in his mouth to chew on them.

Day 53, July 29th 2009












Temperatures were in the 100's all week so we stayed at Grandma Grahams home for a few days to have air conditioning. I found a good spot to place Jadon in while I did come cleaning up.

Day 51, July 27th 2009

























Jadon in his hospital crib at OHSU Dornbecker. This was the first and only night we've slept apart. It was hard on both of us.


























Jadons doctors examining him. They were ordered to wear those funny yellow clothes in case he had a bacterial infection, they didn't want to spread the infection to the other children in the hospital. Turns out he only had a viral infection.
