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!!

Mitch

On Sunday August 17th one of my good freinds and my sisters love, passed away unexpectedly. He was such an awesome person, he just drew people in and was always willing to help others and he loved his family very much. I am going to miss being so silly with him...and Noah just loved him. Mitch always called me the Jamster and he was Mr.Mitch or Mitchster. Halloweens were the best..Mitch was always Joey from slipknot..funny. He lived next door to my parnets and I saw him all the time so it will be so strange not to see him and his eccentric van, and hear his laugh. He will be missed greatly and may he rest in peace and his family be comforted. I love ya Mitch and I know I didn't step in your office...sorry:)

Mitch, forever in our hearts

The Larsen family reunion

Its that time of year again for family reunions. We had our Larsen side family reunion in Farmington at a little park. The big tradition of these reunions is my dad's home made rootbeer! Noah got to experince it first hand. He loved the way the dry ice made smoke he was so intrigued with it, so were all the other kids. Uncle Jer was there and took Noah on the slides and played, which was heaven for Noah he loves Jer, it is sooo cute, Jer is an awesome uncle who with his wife, Autumn will give us a new baby boy cousin this winter!!! Yay!! I think our favorite part of the day was playing in the water mister and eating ice cream. We had fun seeing all our cousins and thier kids. Its always fun too see how everybody is doing and what they are up to. I love my family so darn much. It was a great day!!

Noah is stoked by the dry ice
