Intro

This blog is dedicated to updates and info on the life of Jackson Nathanael Adam. Jackson was critically ill when born and had to go on ECMO (heart and lung bypass). He made a miraculous recovery, and this is his story! Our intention with this blog was to update friends and family on Jackson's progress and specific prayer requests we had during his extensive stay in the NICU. We will probably move to a family website at some point. :) Thank you for loving him!

Our first stroller ride.... =)

We got Jackson ready for his very first stroller ride. It was a fairly nice evening and a little less humid, so we ventured out. =) Jack was content and diggin' his stroller.
As we headed out, I was pushing the stroller and Joe was snapping pictures as we went. Of course, if you've seen Joe drive, you understand why I was pushing the stroller. =)
Everything was going well and Jackson was loving his ride.
It wasn't long before he was out like a light. At this point, Joe decided that he wanted to push the stroller, so with hesitation, I turned over the reins. Of course, just pushing the stroller wasn't good enough for Joe. He wanted to push the stroller and watch Jackson at the same time....
So before too long, the inevitable happened... (enter scary music) Dah, Dah, Dah, Dah!!

...Fortunately, Jackson didn't wreck. He was a little frazzled, but no worse for the wear.



We finally made it back to the house safely and I reassured Jackson that everything was okay and we were home safe and sound. He wasn't so sure but decided to take my word for it. I think he was just tired as it was past his bedtime. =)
Of course, this has all just been us goofing around. =) What really happened is that we had a wonderful stroller ride. We ran into some neighbors and went to visit them, and Jackson had a great time looking all around at the trees and listening to the birds.



Hope you all had a lovely evening! =)

Isn't it astonishing how babies trust adults!
Joe, you give us flash-backs!
Sounds like he is in for a normal future.
