Oh, at what could have been......


Today, January 23rd, was my due date for Tedder baby #2! Yes, its a sad day for me and Dustin, but we cant help but to look at Landon and be thankful for him. We almost lost him. I was given up to die 3 times while I was 5 months pregnant with him. I was on life support for 7 days. I had feeding tubs, wires hooked up everywhere. My family was almost planning me and baby Landon's funeral. But God answered prayers and brought me and Landon through that difficult time. Landon is such a sweet little boy, who loves M&M's, loves playing guns and swords with his daddy, loves cuddling up to and kissing his mommy. He loves to drink milk and water. He loves bath time and doesn't have a good time unless he splashes water everywhere. He loves to wear shoes, even if they don't match. He loves riding in Daddy's big truck because he can sit in the front. He loves playing outside, no matter what the weather is. He loves his cousins Bryce, Summer and Gage more than any other cousins he has. He loves his Aunt Dawn. He is the most loving, caring little boy I have ever met! He is addicted to his movie, "Dr. Seuss Horton hears a Who" right now. He loves Blue's Clues and Handy Mandy. He loves to make people laugh and be silly. He is soooo cute and there isn't a place that we don't go that someone comments on how handsome he is. I could just squeeze him and hug and kiss him all the time. He loves any toys, especially a ball. He has loved a ball since the day he could hold one in his tiny hand. So, while we are sad today, of what could have been, we are so thankful that we have a smart, handsome son, that is the sparkle in every ones eyes! Thank you Jesus for healing us, and having your hand on both of us. We love you and thank you for watching over us.
