FYI, I'm sure some of you have noticed, but the time on these post and on the comments posted are not correct. The dates are right, but we can't figure out why the time is off. The time shows 3 hours before the real time, so don't pay attention to what time the posts are made. For example, it's 11:25 right now, but it will say that I posted this at 8:25. No big deal...just wanted to let you know.
We have created this blog to help keep all of our family and friends updated on Pearson's progress as he begins to take his first baby steps in life. As most of you know, Pearson has a birth defect known as CDH and will have to overcome many challenges over the next several months. We thank you for visiting our blog and encourage you to leave comments as often as you would like. We look forward to hearing from you!

A Day In The Life Of The McClain's
Just wanted to share with you all how we spent our day. After sleeping in this morning, (we are enjoying this while we can!!!) we started working on a name plate that we wanted to make for Pearson while he is in the hospital. We wanted him to have something cute to hang on his incubator, so all the nurses know what to call him. Unless it's Dr. Kays, who already told us that some days he might call him "little shit" depending on how well he's cooperating. You've got to love a doctor with a sense of humor!!! Jennifer, one of the other CDH moms, gave me this great idea. Thanks, Jennifer! Matt told me to be sure and let you all know that he did ALL the painting. (except for the giraffe....it came already painted and we actually have several other animals that we bought to change out each day/holiday since we are putting them on with velcro) but I bought all of the stuff and I helped put the letters on, so I had a part in it too! All we have to do now is hang the ribbon from the top, so it's not completely finished! After doing this, we sat outside and lounged in our chairs for a little while (75 degrees, sunny, with a little breeze.....PERFECT!!!), and before we knew it, it was time to start grilling out supper. Thank God Matt is an awesome griller, otherwise we would be eating the same thing every night! LOL! Now we are just hanging out in the camper and trying to find something on T.V. to pass the time until it's time for bed. Tough life, I know! We are enjoying it while we can, because it's all over with next Tuesday!!!!
We also want to thank you all for the comments so far! You really help brighten our days!!!

Hi Brandi & Matt,
ReplyDeleteI have not met you yet, Matt, but I hope to meet you soon. I think the sign is gorgeous, perfect. I have a lot of people praying for all 3 of you.
I wish I had someone to grill for me, we would have steak & shrimp tonight. Don't that sound good. Ya'll be good and take care of each other. This is Winstons' Aunt Gail.
Hey Kids!
ReplyDeleteI love the sign. Matt is a very talented painter but of course, y'all knew that. He has had quite a bit of practice. Brandi, your grandpa will be proud.
See you in 2 days!
Love,
Mom (Tonya)

ReplyDeleteGood Morning,
ReplyDeleteDoctor Day!!! Can't wait to here the latest. Hope all is still well and on schedule for Tuesday. Love the sign, BB and I were talking yesterday and BB says that Pearson needs a YELLOW JACKET for the sign, don't want anyone thinking that Pearson will be a mean Florida Gator just because here is born in Florida, so we are on the hunt for a bumblebee to bring down with us!!! You both should have seen the smile on BB's face as we talked about Pearson yesterday, he was even laughing out loud. We will be down late Thursday.
Love ya bunches
"GREAT" aunt

Well, the Garrisons' can't let Pearson think that only Yellow Jackets would be an option, so I will be on the lookout for a BULLDOG!!! Love y'all and let us know if we can send anything down your way. You never know, we might sneak down after he is born. Love and prayers! :)
ReplyDeleteSending prayers for you both! I know you can't wait to meet your little man! Being parents is such a great thing and I know you will both be great! Love, Melissa Roper
