Sorry, we’ve been slowing in updating the blog… Here are a couple more recent pictures of Hudson!
Hudson has been doing well gaining weight, he now weighs 8lbs 9.1oz/3.886kg. We continue to give him his medications at 630am and 630pm as much as we hate doing it.
I continue to go to work after we are done in the morning leaving around 730am and try to be home by 500pm. The routine is completely draining on all of us and Gabby being at home with the kids all day is taking its toll.. I’m a LOT more tired lately and I’m finding I’m not tolerating much. When the kids whine, I get really annoyed and getting annoyed is becoming more frequent.
Hudson is still far from smooth sailing as there is still so much to monitor and be careful with. Most of family and friends have been very kind to understand why we’ve been fairly strict in that Hudson is at a higher risk of problems if he did catch something like a cold. A simple cold would mean we already have to consider calling 911 because of a risk of congestive heart failure especially if the cold starts to get into his lungs. Not good so we do take some extra precautions and very thankful for your understanding!
Our family cannot be thankful enough about the many dinners personally brought to our door. I don’t even have words that can describe how grateful and helpful it has been to us. So i want to again say, a big thank you Thank You THANK YOU!
It’s after midnight now, and I know I have so much more to say but I can’t think of it right now, I will continue to post as I think of them!

What a gorgeous boy!!! Thank you for the updates, we will keep Hudson and your family in our prayers!
Hey Hudson looks so big I can’t believe that. What a champ. Are you still thinking about coming back to Edmonton for his second surgery?? Parker just discharged yesterday, so if you come here then they could play…

Hi Jessica, yeah we are leaning towards coming back to Edmonton. I think the more time we spend with Hudson, the more we want him to have the same surgeon throughout these 3 surgeries. We’re looking to come out there for sure. He’s a good 4.37kg now and they want him to be at least 5.00kg or 6.00kg.
Maybe Hayden and your boys can wrestle again haha. Parker is looking awesome, we’re so happy he finally received the heart he’s been waiting for! He’s the champ!
Thanks Rhonda for your continued prayers!
