One Month Old/OUCH

MY Little Andy turned ONE MONTH yesterday!!
We started out our day by going to Syd and Breqy's Graduation! Congrats girls you looked adorable and did very good with your performing!!

Then the fun began . . . NOT!! I went straight from the graduation to work, I'm not officially back yet I just wanted to go and help out with payroll. So, I was there a couple of hours when I got a phone call on my dying phone where Robert (a guy lance works with) said Lance had an accident, he fell and the ambulance would be taking him to Ogden Regional and was that ok? SO of course my phone is beeping so I hurry and tell him yes Ogden Regional is fine and I'll meet him there. So before the phone goes completely I call my mom who's watching Sam and give her a 15 sec explanation before texting Kyle the same. I run home to grab my charger to only find my wall one, and head up to the hospital. Kyle and the ambulance just barely beat me there. I go in, answer Lance's check in questions with the receptionist and wait . . . all they would tell us is that he's talking but no one can go back. This is frustrating. So anyway finally they let us back, by then Shay and Clay have come and I sent Shay with Andrew so that he could be fed. Kyle and I go back and this is what we saw . . .

Now first we noticed the chin, which made Kyle take a giant leap for the curtain door looking ghost white. Then I made the mistake of asking what the damage was which drew our attention to the wrist making me gasp and Kyle leave looking more than a little green.

So my sister came in after Kyle escaped and acted all cool and no big deal-ish. Come to find out that five seconds after she left she was laying on her back on the waiting room floor almost passed out cold. My dad ended up taking her home and getting my mom, probably the only one in my family who was excited about seeing Lance and his injury. We were trying to wait for my dad to come back to give Lance a blessing before the surgeon put Lance out to try and set his wrist, but the pain was too much and the nurse and I had to cover him up to his eye balls so my queasy brothers Clay and Kyle could come back in the room long enough to bless him. Thanks guys. I was fairly impressed with Clay who didn't even pass out just turned so white he was see-through. And thank you Kyle for staying upright! :-)

Anyway, Lance fell at work when a ladder that was on a deck gave out. He claims to have fallen 12 feet but when my brothers picked up his car and looked where he fell they think it was more like 18. He broke through both bones in his wrist (obviously). The doctors were hoping they could set it and be done but its in too many pieces they're going to have to do surgery next week to put pins and plates in so that he'll heal correctly. He's doing good so far, 7 stiches in his chin, aching everything, a head ache, very bad stubbed toe and the wrist. They gave him vicodin for the pain and I give it to him every 4-6 hours as necessary until we go in on Monday. Wish us luck!

Oh and if anyone knows of a desk job opening, I'm going to be getting Lance one! ;-)

One Month Old!!

So a lot can happen in the first 31 days of life . . .


These are a few of the events that my little Andy Roo has experienced . . .

He got his first hair washing at the hospital a few hours after being born . . .
His first bath came along with it . . .

*Then just 3 days after coming to this earth Andy got to come home and play with his Big Sister. . . Sami is so excited to be a big sister (so long as nobody but her holds him and he stays in his bouncer unless she wants to get in it)

*5 days old and my little angel went to his first Birthday Party . . . Thanks Syd for waiting to have it until Andy could come. (grandma, Great-grandma, Great-grandpa, Andy and "regular" grandpa).

*This is just a fun picture of my Andrew on his 2 week appointment which was also the day of the dreaded circ!! (Sorry no pictures of that!) Lance and I opted to be with the little guy through such a heart-wrenching procedure. (Lance had to sit down after the numbing shots. . . he claimed sympathy pain- I don't get it this guy can watch anything including 2 labors with a front row seat and not even flinch but one tiny needle in his sons winker and he's out cold(?))

*Andy lost his umbilical cord and got his first and only belly-button at 2 weeks and 3 days old. Isn't it cute?

*On the 22nd of May my cousin Brett got married and Andy attended his first wedding and reception at 18 days old. He's the one surrounded by all the girls!
(Sydnee, Breqlynn, Andrew, Haylee, Hazel and Samantha) Devin and Camerin left early otherwise we would've forced them in the pic as well ;-)

*Andrew had his first Memorial Day and went to see uncle Alan and Great-grandpa Coombs' graves for the first time when he was 3 weeks old.

The big girls loved holding little Andy-Roo for the pictures. Thanks girls!!

*Unfortunately Andy also had his first not-too fun experiences before he turned one month when he got his first fever and cold last week which resulted in his first trip to the hospital. It was not a fun experience.

This is a picture of me last Saturday Morning bathing Andy trying to get the little guys temp down before taking him up to the E.R.

This is us at our not very fun day at the hospital. Only 26 days old, and my little man was so brave.

This was an eventful month. Between colic, circumcissions and everything else at this point I can honestly say my Sami Sam was an easier baby. we're hoping that means he'll be an easier 2 year old!! ;-) Maybe he'll be sleeping during the night and spitting up less by then. I hope this makes sense to any who read it the lack of sleep is starting to turn my brain to mush so please don't hold any typo's against me.
