Landon, Mom and Dad are doing great. We’re still pretty tired staying up with him all night, but we are getting good at our “rotation”. Dad gets 5-6 hours sleep, then Mom gets 7-8 (of course she’ll tell you it’s the other way around, but we all know how the men in this family take care of all the work)!!! We’ve seem to have his feeding under control, we had some problems finding the right bottle/nipple combination the first few days. On the home front, Murphy’s Law has struck with a fury. The day we went to the NICU for our sleepover the kitchen sink clogged. After nearly flooding the kitchen we seemed to get it cleared, only to find out the next day when we brought Landon home it was backed up again. This time we called in a professional who came and cleared it, but of course it clogged again the next day. The plumber came back and cleared it again. Well wouldn’t you know it, but it clogged yet again today. Back came the plumber, this time with his super dupper industial sized monster snake. Hopefully this time he got it. It’s a real pain not being able to wash the bottles let alone the dishes!!!
Here’s Lan in his diaper thinking, “Umm excuse me, could you put the camera down and get me some clothes please!”

And here is Landon in his new swing:

Wow, look at the meat on that boy, he looks like a typical newborn! Granma she is really happy to see you looking so sturdy!
Kisses…
Wow, I married the wrong Jellin! 7 or 8 (even 5 or 6) hours of sleep at one time (or do you mean a week) with a newborn.
He is getting so big! We love pictures!

Jason, your poem, “Through the Eyes of Landon” is masterful. If that engineering gig ever dries up, I bet you could land a job at Hallmark, or at least in the gift shop downstairs from the NICU.
Your pictures are wonderful…and appreciated. They immediately caused me to flash back 27 years to when we brought our little bundle of joy home. We sure could have used an owner’s manual that day.
Good luck keeping the drain unplugged.
Landy, I looked at your gallery, and concluded that you are a little miracle baby!!! and I thank God for you! Just keep up the good works… there is so much love, and fun ahead of you.
(and I can’t wait to hold you and whisper this into your ittle ear.
Love U, little guy – our omiGG
Looking absolutely adorable

Li’l Lando-Lakes! Happy First Easter Sweetie!!! Next year you’ll be scrambling in the sun with all your cousins for those eggies at Unc Bri and Aunt Kell’s. This year, if I know your Ganma She you’re probably looking at an Easter Basket three no maybe 4 times your size??? Sending lots of love and like omiGG LOTS of anticipation to hold you. G.A. Debi and boys
Oh one more thing, when your daddy above says: “This time we called in a professional who came and cleared it” you need to understand that, in this family, if there is a plumbing problem SO BIG that your Poppy can’t fix it (with maybe a little help from Dad and Uncs), it means it is indeed a MONSTER PROBLEM. You are very lucky to have such a Perservering Poppy who is just this close to a Professional Plumber! L, GA Deb
