BIg day!


On August 11th 2011 Bentley Grant Johnson was born at 7:30 am.  He weighed 6lbs 9oz and 20.5 inches long.  He was a month early, and he had premature lungs, and had to go straight to the NICU.  They had to put him on oxygen, a tube in him to help the air to go through his lungs.  They told it was going to take at least a week before he could go home.  Today is day 4 and he is doing tons better, off the oxygen and the tube that was helping him lungs is gone too.  His breathing is normal, we started feeding him yesterday! He is doing great at it! We just need him to eat about an ounce consistently so he will gain weight, and so they can wing him off the iv and then go home!

Quick run down of the past few months!

So I know I haven't been very good at keeping this up to date but here is a run down of the past few months!

Just shortly after the wedding Brad started working for May Trucking company, which was a great stepping stone to get is Professional Driving career started.  May has there good days and bad days.  Working for them helped him learn lots about how to get what you want while trying to keep the company happy!  With all of that and our baby on the way Brad decided he wanted to try and find a job were he can be home more often, and is now working  for Knight Transportation.  He seems to like them  A LOT more! They offer their employees more opportunities to be at home, make better money, relocate, and to move up in the company!

We found out that we are having a baby BOY! His name will be Bentley Grant Johnson.  We are both very excited for our family to get started.  We had a great baby shower and got lots of wonderful gifts, like a beautiful crib, and TONS of way cute outfits!
