Dinosaurs

So we went to the u of u museum. I wanted to take Noah to the big thanksgiving point one but didn't have the funds so this had to do for the time being. Noah was scared of the dinosaur head at the beginning, I told him that you feed it money and it talks. So he put the money in the mouth and the dino started talking...scared him nicely. I told him it was not a real dinosaur, so he kind of started to like it, named it Alice.. he is funny about naming things. He liked diggin in the dirt for fossils, what boy doesn't love digging in the dirt?? He also loved the dinosaur bones and stuffed animals...shoulda gone to Cabella's and paid nothing. I sound so cheap I know. Anywhoo we had a fun time there, Noah is a little sponge and loves learning and soaking up information. Now on to the big museum....

Miracle

This is Cohen Goodrich. He is a true miracle. I just have to share this story. This angel is my best friend, Heather's baby. He was born 10 weeks to soon. Let me start at the beginning of the story. At 16 weeks along Heather found out that she had a tear in her amniotic sac and was losing fluid, the fluid that keeps your baby alive. The docters told her there was nothing they could do. The doctors were not very posotive about the outcome. If there was not enough fluid then the baby could die, have no lungs and it was really scary what they said. Heather had a preisthood blessing. At 24 weeks she was admitted to the hospital because she was leaking fluid so badly and she started bleeding heavily, things did not look good. There was a couple times that the baby almost crashed, he was cutting his own cord off. Heather was amazing...she was so strong, and her faith was did not waiver. The Drs. and nurses called her the "walking miracle". At 30 weeks Heather had an emergency C-section and Cohen arrived small and sick. He was 3lbs.6oz. He had priesthood blessings and everyone prayed for him. He was in the NICU for a little over 6 weeks and he got to come home with no monitors or oxygen, just a beautiful baby boy who defied all the odds. Cohen is 4 months and adorable and doing Awesome!! He was meant to be here and whenever I see him I have to smile...I know that he is a miracle gift from god. Heather and her family are so lucky to have this sweet spirit. I love the gospel so much and the priesthood is amazing!! This story is so faith promoting and I love it and I love Heather and her family!!
