Two Long Months

I guess it's my turn to try my hand at adding to this here blog. Jenn has done all of the updates so far and I figured that I needed to start pulling my weight. I get the pleasure in my first post of announcing that our new boy is finally two months old! I'd be lying if I were to tell you the last sixty days have been easy...they haven't been. Between sitting in intensive care for twenty something days, trying to keep up with the Beans, and colon irrigations, we have had our hands full. I could go on and on about Jenn and I's problems but they pale in comparison to what our little boy has been going through. I can say from the bottom of my heart that even at his tender age, Sam Sam is a way better man than I. I couldn't be more proud of him, he has met the first challenges of his life with more determination and toughness than most adults that I know. The poor kid goes weeks without pooping or passing gas, has had major surgery that required organs being pulled through his butt, and gets violated daily with anal probes, all the while he has never so much as moaned. What a kid, with that degree of steadfastness at two months I can only imagine what the future has in store for him. That's good cause I hear it ain't easy getting through the first two years at Yale.
