Some Good News and Some Bad News






We have had quite an eventful 24 Hours. We are pleased to announce that Carson has officially joined the family. He was born on February 15, 2010 at 12:44 pm. When he was born he weighed 8 pounds 9 Ounces, one ounce beginner than Melina was, he also measured at 19 1/2 inches long. At first he seemed to be fine, but an hour after he was born we notice he was turning a bit blue and was rushed off to the Nursery for some special care. Things escalated quickly and by 6:45 he was on Life Flight heading to Primary Children's Medical Center, and by 9:30 we new that he would need open heart surgery for correction of some heart defects. At this time he is stable and awaiting the decision of when he is going into surgery, which we have to wait until Wednesday to find out the answer to that question. Alicia is doing well, working towards her recovery so that she can get up to see him.
