Jayden and Conner

Jayden being "gentle" with Conner.

It was SO cute...he was holding his hand!

2 weeks old today!
I have one more day with this little guy... Auntie Krista loves you Conner!

More Florida Pics

Conner loved his 1st bath!

He's such a good baby.

Jayden loves his Uncle Craig.

He cries when Craig walks out of the room...

Jayden is learning how to be gentle with Conner.

It was SO cute...

Jayden walked over and tried to give Conner his pacifier!

But not without trying it out first!

Florida

We made it to Florida!

Jayden did SO well on the plane. He made lots of friends! People were amazed at how happy he was and how much he smiled. I guess he loves airplanes like his daddy!

It was an exciting day...I had to literally RUN to catch our connecting flight in Vegas! They were calling my name over the intercom in the airport. I've never ran so fast. I was the LAST person on the plane and had the middle seat in the LAST row, but everyone around us was very friendly.

Once we got to Florida we found out that our luggage didn't make it! So, we're supposed to get it tomorrow...we'll see! After we got back to the car, we decided to grab some food at McDonalds. I ordered a cheeseburger and when we drove away, I opened it and there wasn't any meat on it!! It was a cheese sandwich! We got a good laugh out of it though. Great way to top off my day!!

We're just happy to be here safely

and thankful Jayden traveled so well.

I'll post pictures of my niece and nephews SOON!

10 Months

Here are Jayden's 10 month pictures!

He's 25 pounds now and has 7 teeth.
His 1 year birthday is just around the corner!

This is his new "scrunchy" face...

Sweet boy...

Alison bought this outfit for Jayden for Christmas.

Thanks Ali!

Jayden is learning to walk. He'll walk around holding on to stuff,

but doesn't have the confidence to let go.

He stands by himself though!

We tried to take pictures of Kylie and Jayden together, BUT...
Jayden wanted to touch her eyes, nose, mouth, ears...you name it! He was doing patty-cake on her head and tried to push her off the block.

We'll try again next month!

We were able to get a few cute ones.

Watch out for the drool Kylie!

We'll be taking pictures with Jayden's other cousins once we get to Florida,
so check back later!

6 Days Old...

Two more days until I get to meet this little guy!

Conner has more hair than Jayden and he's only 6 days old!

Pray for my 5 hour flight to Florida with Jayden.

He does NOT like sitting still so it should be interesting!

Any ideas?

Conner is doing better!

Craig and my sister are allowed to see him more often.

He is very jaundice so they have to stay in the hospital longer.

Hopefully they'll get to go home soon so their family

can all be together again!

I know Ryan and Jessica are going to be great big siblings!

Conner Austen

Here's a picture of my cute nephew!

The Family is finally together!

Jenn and Craig were moved to a room where Conner gets to join them! Thank you for all your prayers. Please continue to pray for the five members of the DeJager family as they all bond together!

I'll see you next weekend Conner!
I love you already!

Here are some more pictures of Conner. He's SO cute!

He's still in NICU and Jenn still hasn't had a chance to be with him again yet. Please pray for the both of them (Craig too), I can't imagine what that must be like!
