CHRISTMAS 2009
Christmas Day was over way to quick once again. I promise myself each year that I will be more organized....I need to find a solution to the December madness.....However I do enjoy the hustle and bustle. Next year's plan is to leave the week of Christmas free and clear of last minute craziness....at least it is a nice thought.

Sweet Lucy Jayne Bennion
Little Lucy decided she wanted to share her mom's birthday and was born on December 11th. We are so happy to have such a sweet addition to our family. Lucy has had some struggles and we are working hard to get her well so she can come home. Both Sara and Lucy spiked a fever during labor and the doctors responded quickly to get them both on antibiotics. After many bouts ~spinal taps and blood tests~ with special doctors at St Mark's and Primary Childrens Hospital Lucy has been diagnosed with partial Spinal Meningitis. They are calling it partial because thanks to the doctors Lucy was immediately put on medication not knowing the reason for her temperature. This part has been the biggest blessing. The bacteria never had the chance to multiply and push her into having full blown Spinal Meningitis. We are so thankful for this blessing. Sara and Winston got a piece of bad news yesterday that Lucy has to stay in the hospital for 21 days so she can have the full spectrum of antibiotics. Of course this is so necessary but very hard to go home and leave your little one at the hospital. Sara is working hard to keep her milk and will go back and forth to feed Lucy. They hope to bring her home Jan 1 or 2. We are so thankful for Winston and the blessings that come through the Preisthood. We know that Lucy is blessed to have such a good Mom and Dad.
We welcome Lucy Jayne to our family and can't wait to get her home!!
