So many of you have heard about Jacob's little sister, Joy and her husband, Collin, and their new baby... I have been forwarding pictures on to some of you, but thought others might like to see too. Its AMAZING! He was born at 26 weeks, 14 weeks early, in Idaho Falls. He weighed 14 oz. when he was born. He is the smallest baby born in Idaho to survive. It seems like he is doing well. It sounds like he has good days and bad days and they can't really give them any hope or ideas of where he should be, because there just isn't alot of history with this kind of thing. He is 3 weeks old now though and seems to be doing as good as he can be. He will be in the hospitol until at least his due date, which is Jan. 4th, I believe. Here are some pictures. Its amazing the changes in three weeks.
This is the first dAY... 14 oz. 8 or 9 inches long...
This is him lying next to a 1 pint bottle...
In these two he has Joy's wedding ring around his hand, which is probably around a size 5 or 6... He is now 3 weeks old and up to 1 1/2 pounds...
Isn't it amazing? I just can't believe what can be done these days. We are praying for you guys, Joy.

That is an amazing story. He is so tiny. We will keep him in our prayers.
Wow! I am so sad for them that he was born early but, happy about the miricale that he is still here! What an amazing story.
They mentioned him in RS last Sunday and I've been wondering ever since how he is doing. It's amazing! Keep us posted. My prayers are with you.
UGH! My heart aches and my eyes are full of tears! What a hard thing to have to go through! We are praying for them!!!!!
That really puts what is important in life in perspective, doesn't it? So tiny and precious!
Truly miraculous! I know a girl who had a baby only one pound and she's over a year old now, is 13 pounds and is doing so well!
What a little fighter.
