Quick Update

We brought Kaden home Sat. afternoon and he's doing great! Jessica is still in a lot of pain and we took her to the ER late last night (after being advised by the advice nurse to do so). After some more needle pricks and a 2nd CAT scan they finally determined that Jessica had a "ruptured uturus" during the delivery. While she'll be sore for a while longer than normal, she's not in any immediate danger (though she'll be going in again next week for another follow up). I guess deliveries in the 21st century can still be a scary event, but we've been blessed and now both Mom and baby are doing great! Thanks for everyone's thoughts and prayers, they were appreciated.

Pictures!

Kaden taking a nap. I thought this was a great picture of Emily along with her little brother.

This is one on Kaden's birthday taken by the nurse right after he was born. Notice the shirt, had to introduce him to the world the right way!

These girls have been great with Kaden! They've been so helpful and soft. All they want to do is hold him and feed him!

Not that I'm biased, but those are 3 pretty cute kids!

1 of the few times he's calm while not being held. As long as he's fed and being cuddled, he's great, but boy he doesn't like laying by himself!

Right after midnight on the night he was born.

It's a BOY!!

I'm sorry if there's a lot of you who might read this and we haven't call individually, but...well....I guess we just don't like you as much :-).

Kaden Harris Poston was born 5/23/07 at 9:54 pm. He's 7'15 oz 20 1/2" and rivals anyone's "howitzer" ;-)

In all seriousness though, Jessica and Kaden had a really hard labor..the umbilical cord was twisted and wrapped around the neck causing low pulse/BP during contractions. We were seconds away from a C-section and then later surgery for Jessica several times. It was only through Jessica's faithfullness and the power of a Priesthood Blessing that we were able to avoid any surgeries (so far). Jessica still isn't out of the woods yet, but continues to improve. After delivery, Kaden demonstrated that he's a tough little guy and has been doing awesome. Jessica has had some internal bleedings and we're still awaiting several tests to determine if she needs surgury, but so far the blood transfusion and our prayers have helped to strengthen her.

Have a great day and welcome to the world's smallest (in size) yet biggest Spurs fan the world may ever know!

Oh, and by the way, Jazz suck, Spurs rule all!

Feeling sorry for all of you that have to live in Utah!

Man it must suck to be those of you in Utah. Having to endure all of the whining that is sure to come as my beloved Spurs dominate them! That's right (Rob-stupid Utah homer) the Spurs are coming!

Back to School

I guess it's not the cougar that most mormons become, but it's a cougar none the less. For those of you I haven't talked to in a while. I started classes this week at Washington State University this week. This summer will be pretty busy (14 semester hours!) but it will help get me finished faster. Jess is just about ready to pop, so any day now we'll have some baby pictures for everyone!
