Thirteen Months

Noah is a typical teenager. Now that he's hit the BIG thirteen {months, that is} he is sporting the at-ti-tude. Noah simply would not sit for a picture tonight {that's what babies do} and no matter how much Mama and Daddy-O jumped around he wouldn't smile for the camera {this is so lame}.

In fact, Noah even tried to run away from us {I don't have to sit here for this} and when I asked him to please sit down,

he turned his back on me {my parents are so not cool}.

His current stats are:

Weight: 25 pounds 5 ounces
Length: 31 inches

I think we're in for one wild ride {Hey Daddy-O, can I borrow the car?}.

Typical teenager. :)

Even though he didn't sit still, the pictures are still great. Happy 13, Noah!

Fantastic! Love it. Can't wait to see the little man. He just better not teach my sweet, well behaved angel any bad behaviors! (note the sarcasm)

The Story

Our son, Noah Stone Jackson, was born with a very rare genetic disorder called Fraser syndrome. Among his many challenges are one “hidden eye”, a narrow trachea (which required him to have a tracheotomy), an imperforate anus (which required a colostomy), difficulty swallowing (which required a G-Tube for feedings), the fusing of his vocal chords (which means he may never speak), and club feet (which are being corrected with braces). Our family is on an amazing journey together. We are learning to walk along this path that God has planned for us, trusting in His infinite love and wisdom. We are taking each day (or each moment) as it comes and relying on each other, our friends and family, and our God for strength. We have a long road ahead of us filled with several more surgeries, lots of recovery, countless hours of therapy, and many trips to specialists around the state. Every day brings us challenges but they pale in comparison to the smiles and cuddles from our little man. Noah is our son, a true gift from God, and we cannot wait to see where this adventure leads.
