Happy Valentines Day!!




I know it's been a long time since I last posted- so I'll get everyone up to date.




I know that most of you know already, but for those who don't, my sister Stephanie had a baby boy on January 22. He was born with a heart problem and has been in the NICU at Primary Children's hospital in SLC. He underwent jaw surgery at four days old and they have been slowly moving his jaw forward so his tongue doesn't block his air way. They are done with the moving and are waiting for him to heal a little bit before they send him home. We were really blessed to be able to go to Utah for a week to help her out. Stephanie and Jake are doing well- Thank you for the prayers. I know they have helped. He will have to have open heart surgery at 4 months and cleft palate surgery at 10-11 months and again at about 2 yrs. Nathan is such a strong little boy (he looks just like my mom's family!) that I know he will be strong enough to overcome these obstacles he's been presented with.


Don started his job as VP of Accounting in California, so we only get to see him on weekends. It has been hard not having him here, but he is happy with his job and seems to be doing well. With all of his flying, he's gotten sick and brings it home with him. Last month, he got the flu but refused to see a doctor- it went away, but came back this past week. I made him go to the doctor and he was diagnosed with type A flu. That night I noticed that Nolan was running a fever and Brennan had a sore throat so I made them a Dr appointment for Monday. I was not supprised to find that Brennan had strept and Nolan had the flu. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday were miserable!!!! I had to go to the doc too- and suprise! I had the flu and a sinus infection. This week has not been a great week for the Borcherts! But we are feeling much better today.


Which brings us to the fun part of the post: My funny stories of the day. After I got Brennan off to school, I put Nolan in bed with me and we fell back to sleep. Well, a couple of hours later, I woke up to Nolan trying to put his binkie in my mouth. He was very intent on getting it in too!! After we came down stairs to eat and play, Nolan wanted to roll around. He's been getting really good at rolling where he wants to go. He rolled right over to the patio doors, pulled aside the drapes, and peered out the window. I saw this and grabbed my camera. When he saw the camera, he tried to hide behind the drapes! He's such a character!
