Tanner Update

Tanner continues to improve and do better everyday. He is still growing a ton everyday. They took him off the oxygen early this morning at 1:00am. He has been doing well with out it. That is a very big step. Hopefully he can stay off of it. The next step is for Angeline to feed him for 6 solid meals a day. Right now he gets too sleepy half way through eating.













Not sure when he will come home yet, although we are not eager to push it too fast. He has great care, although it does make us feel bad when we have to leave him at night. With all the sickness going around, we would hate to end back up in the hospital.

Angeline has had the best recovery of all 3 pregnancies, it helped that Tanner was a bit smaller. She is doing well. Now we just hope feeding improves. We appreciate all the thoughts and prayers from everyone, we can feel them.

Baby Tanner progressing

Tanner is continuing to progress and do much better. Today latched on for a short while. He is now off the iv. He put on some weight after dropping a little bit. His heart rate is down.

We are grateful for the blessings we are witnessing with Tanner. He has great nurses and great care. We love him so much.

From tonight.





We have been trying to post lots of pictures since not very many people are allowed to see him in the NICU.

Tanner Charles Jarvis


Well, Baby Tanner is here. Tanner Charles Jarvis is the name we decided to name him. He sure was excited to get here. 6lb 2oz. 17 inches tall. He was born at 8:45am Sunday, January 13, 2013. His due date was Feb 8th. We sure are excited to have him, although because he is early, he is premature. His lungs weren't entirely opened. He has been Cpap machine. He could be in the hospital for 2 weeks, although he is doing pretty well so he could come home sooner. It's all a matter of how he does. He is a cute little boy and he looks like his daddy. It has been a little hard since we can't hold him. It will be soon enough.
Angeline is doing very well. It has been the best birth yet. She has recovered very well. I had just got done with the radio show podcast and hopped into bed about 1:15. I crashed out. About 2:15am, Angeline woke me up and said her water broke. I was running around frantic, just like in the movies. I didn't know what to do because he was so early. Luckily, Angeline was prepared. She was in labor all night, and she delivered at 8:45am. Tanner is in the NICU for now. The girls, Ashlyn and Lydia are so excited. They helped name him.
