Update on Little Miss Bridget

Bridget has had a ruff start to her sweet life. She has been at Primary Children's Hospital since she was 4 days old. She is 12 days old today. She was born with a bowel obstruction. This kept her from being able to eat or process anything. She had surgery on Dec. 16. She has been improving every day . She had a pick line put in her arm so the could give her nutrition and fatty acids. All of which are very important in her development. Today they removed her drainage tube from her nose. That means she might be able to start eating tomorrow. She really wants her Mom to feed her. She is the sweetest thing. I can't believe that she screams all night. Kimber must be making that stuff up ! Kimber has done a wonderful job taking care of her child's needs. I am so proud of the Mother she is becoming.

2009 BMW Arrived Just in Time for the Holiday Season

Bridget Mae Whitehead
Hi I'm Bridget and this is my family. My Mom and Dad are just getting settled in at the hospital. I'm under the covers.



I arrived at 12: 59 and my Momma was really happy. I am a pretty big girl weighing 8. 9 oz. I am 21 inches long. I have long thin fingers and long skinny feet. Here I am saying hello to my Mom. I have a bunch of goop in my eyes so everything looks funny.

This is my Grandma. She got to hold me when I was about twenty minutes old.


This is my cute Grandpapa. He just keeps smiling when he hold me.

This is my Uncle Kevy. He loves me and wants to hold me all the time. He took a million pictures of me with his phone.

This is Uncle Chad. He got back from school just in time for my birth. He says I am "pure love". How sweet is that!

I have learned how to work a few things on this body already. I can close my eyes and sleep a lot.






I can really let out a whopper of a cry. Grandma says it is cute.

I can cross one eye. Can you?

I can look into Grandma's eyes. Hers look kind of watery though. Aunt Kalli is my best girl friend. We just love to talk about everything. She says if Mommy says No, I should ask her.

This is my Daddy. What can I say, he thinks I am a Princess.

I can't wait to go home tomorrow and see my room. Me and Mommy have been working a long time on it.

Thank You Heavenly Father

Love,

Bridget xooxoxo

Zions Bank Top of the Mountain Bowl Game 2009

Snow College ended up tied for the title of WSFL Champions 2009 season. They were invited to play in a Bowl Game on Saturday Dec.5 at Rio Tinto Stadium. They were ranked 8th in the nation and they played number 3 ranked Grand Rapids. Snow college won with a score of 41 - 37. It was a great game. Chad only punted once . It was a 58 yard punt. That was really good. The winners received a gift bag with cool things in it including a beautiful dress watch with the Top of the Mountain Bowl logo on it. He will also receive a Championship ring from the WSFL. It has been such a fun experience to go through with him this year.

Warming up before the big game. It was every cold.
Here are a few pictures of the frozen fans. We ended up getting snowed on. Buuuurrrr!

Kimber's Baby Shower

Kimber had a wonderful Baby Shower. A lot of people came to share in the fun. She is so ready to have this baby. Thank you to everyone for their beautiful gifts.

Thankgiving Day 2009

We had family members from the Isom, Smith, Towne and Walker Families to our home for dinner. Everyone brought something so that was great! We are greatful for our family.

Changes

The past few weeks have been full of changes. Changes in the weather. Changes in the health of family members. Time changes. I guess it is just that time of year. Mike has spent countless hours tending to the needs of his parents and our family. He is an amazing man. I know he will be blessed for his efforts ( hopefully sooner than later) ha ha. Kimber is in count down mode as she has 6 more weeks to go in her pregnancy. She has really out done herself in preparing for this little one. Chad will play his last regular season football game this Saturday in Yuma Az. He has had a very good year. It will be interesting to see what his future holds for him. It is so much fun to have Kevin and Kalli at home with us. Needless to say there is never a dull moment. We have enjoyed having my brother Rick and his family here with us as well. We are learning a lot about each other. All in all we are taking life one day at a time, trying to embrace the changes and challenges that come our way.
