Happy Happy Birthday Andrew!!!

Today is Andrew's birthday, he is four years old. Andrew is a great kid. He is one of my easiest (knock on wood). He is such a mellow, laid back guy. All of the kids love him. He is everyone's buddy. Andrew is funny because he doesn't love alot of commotion or crazyness (yes he is part of our family) If the kids are downstairs he is usually upstairs. He looks just like his dad but acts nothing like him (Chad is King of commotion). Andrew also loves to run. When our kids were practicing for our school's fun run, Andrew would run with them. He would run around the track without even loosing his breath. He ran around that track five times.

When Andrew was born, I brought him home just like normal but then that night he had a diaper full of blood. I took him to the Dr.s and they called for Life flight to take him up to Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake. We were terrified, we got up there at 1:00am and me being totally exhausted from just have given birth I was a mess. They began running all sorts of tests on our little guy, I didn't want to leave but Chad was concerned for my well being. He asked the Dr.s if he could take me home so I could sleep, their reply was "absolutely not, we don't think this little guy will make it through the night." Well after lots of tests, prayers and blessings and a week stay at Primary's hospital we have a healthy four year old today. We are grateful for Andrew's life on a daily basis, he brings so much joy to our family. Happy Birthday Buddy!!!
