Michael's First Birthday!!

So wow I can't believe our little Michael turned one it's absolutely nuts how fast the time has gone. Michael is such an amazing baby. He's so happy, funnyand is definitely his own little person. I'm tellin ya you can tell what your child like when they're inside of you. Jack was kicking like crazy all the time, active, active, active. Then there was Michael who kicked softly and every so often throughout the day. When I was 20 weeks pregnant with Michael we found out there was a chance he may have a fatal chromosome defect called Trisonomy 18. We were pretty freaked out and I was a wreak everytime I had
to have another gloom and doom ultrasound. At 32 weeks I had another ultrasound which my husband's family and mine did a huge fast for and low and behold everything that the perinatologist was worried about was gone cleared up, nothing to worry about we are so thankful our prayers were answered. Well 4 weeks and 5 days later at 6:37am I gave birth to a 6lb 13oz sweet baby. Since he was a little early his lungs were underdeveloped so they took him to the pre-NICUroom and well just after they administered the Surfvactant and were messin with him pokin him and making him scream histerically he decided to stop breathing and went blueish; I was in the room holding his finger when this happened and I actually
don't remember what was going on I was in shock, frozen standing there helpless. Well the doctor and nurses got him back breathing and besides a few other minor complications he was able to come home 6 days later.  Michael is such a blessing in my life and is such a wonderful baby. I feel so lucky to have him and a little nervous to be such a special little guys Mom. We love you Michael; you really are our little angel. Happy Birthday!


Michael's Birthday Party "Hole in One"
So for Michael's first birthday party we decided to do a hole in  one golf theme. It turned out exactely as I wanted it to. We had a really awesome putting green thanks to my brother Brian, pinned the ball in the hole game, golf club piniata, cupcakes, pizza, salad, grapes, water, gatorade, and icecream. Michael had a blast and was so happy. He actually pounded his giant cupcake that was decorated as a golf course
par 1 :) Anyhow it really was so fun and thanks to everyone who came or who wished him a Happy Birthday...he definitely knows he's loved. I want to add some videos of the party on here too but my computer is being lame so those are to come.
