Look who dropped in!



We also got a visit from the Hilgendorfs (left) and the Froelichs (right)

Great Neighbors



We are so thankful for great neighbors.
i.e. Harry Potter, a "real" dragon, and a princess

New Playground

This is our new playground (and the official catalog mascot).
We still need to add swings to the right side of it. And a roof to the top.
Also to come... a sandbox..wooo... where will it be?

Thanks to the Brook Family for their generosity.

Enough Said

Welcome Home Caleb


Bad news became good news. The nurses could not get the IV to work with Caleb, so they switched to an oral antibiotic, which allowed us to bring him home. Praise God.

Update

So the doc x-rayed Caleb this morning and found that he still has fluid in his lungs. He and mom will probably stay in the hospital till late Thursday night or sometime on Friday.

Caleb's Breathing

They knew Caleb had pneumonia because he was breathing way too fast. Typical breathing is 40-60/min. Caleb was around 120. You can see in this video how fast he is breathing, and this is after he has received some treatment (oxygen).


Caleb is Plugged In

For those of you who do not know, Caleb has pneumonia. It is nothing too serious, but please keep him in your prayers. This means he will probably have to stay in the hospital for a week or so.

As you can see, Caleb is all plugged in. Caleb is spending his day(s) on a baby warmer. Basically it is like a really expensive heat lamp.
You can't see it, but above him is a heater that keeps him warm.
You can see a variety of different instruments connected to him.
  • In his nose is a hose to give him oxygen.
  • The silver patch on his belly tests the temperature
  • The cord taped onto his left foot keeps his heart beat
  • The IV on his right arm feeds him.




Keep Caleb in your prayers.
