Merry Christmas!!!

We have so much to be thankful for....

Landon James Eacker is Here!

Meet our MIRACLE baby, Landon James! Yes, I say a miracle because it truely is that he is here and healthy. Landon was born via emergency c-section on Monday Dec. 14th due to a cord prolapse. This means that the umbilical cord was delivering prior to him, that caused his heart rate to drop to 50(a normal newborn heart rate is 120-160). Our OB GYN said that this is only the second time she has had a crash c section due to this considering where I was in the delivery process, and let us know that if a c section was not done that Landon would not make it. She did a hospital record c section in 2 minutes! Landon was born needing a little oxygen, but other than that, was healthy. Monday was a very intense and scary day for us. To all of our friends and family who took the time to say an extra prayer for our health and family, we thank you. Over the next few weeks we plan on focusing on recovery. With Christmas right around the corner, we can't help but feel so thankful for what we have. More Landon pictures to follow later.

Merry Christmas!!!

Chase helped make brownies....

And he helped eat them!

We took Chase to visit Tow Mater in Snohomish! He was excited at first, but then got a little scared of how big he was. Looks just like him!

Happy Halloween!!

Chase made a fantastic Nemo! We enjoyed trick or treating, and Grandma, Papa, Auntie Heidi, Uncle Mike and Cousin Alli came over to celebrate with us! What a darn cute fish!

Abby was a chicken

Peanut was a pumpkin!

Alli was a lovely caterpiller!

This is one of my good friends, Erica. She is a registered nurse, a cancer survivor and a soon to be Mom. I am very thankful for her in my life. Chase was hiding from me under all these

We LOVE baby Alli!!

Crazy kid!

We took Chase to the pumpkin patch a few weeks ago

This kid loves tractors!

I love these two boys!

Chase got big boy undies!

30 weeks pregnant, feeling good!

Chase went potty!!! September has been a very busy month for our boy. We have adjusted for the most part to his big boy bed, he gave up naps pretty much cold turkey(not by Mom or Dad's choice) and now insists on using the toilet like Daddy does. So tonight, we put him in front of the toilet before his bath just to see what would happen.... I can't figure out how to rotate this pic, but as you can see, he was awful proud of himself after going potty.

Chase helped make little pizzas for lunch one day

Here he is showing off his new Christmas PJ's. A little early to celebrate we know, but the PJ's were too cute not to enjoy!

Grandma and Papa got this fun table for Chase. He loves to eat his meals here, but I have learned it might not be the best for crafts and coloring. My dining room wall is now a beautiful shade of bright orange thanks to our sweet boy.

Chase enjoys helping Daddy water the plants.

Here is Chase playing T-Ball with his beach balls. Chase had his first trip to Baskin Robbins today.
