Day One(Nov. 17, 2010)
Today the two newest members of the Amerson and Mead families were brought into this world. It started with a scheduled ultrasound, followed by the expected admittance of Jenni with the babies to the hospital. Shortly after their admittance they started monitoring the babies, little Kooper's heart beat kept slowing down. Soon the room was filled with doctors, nurses, and anesthesiologist and they were preparing to rush Jenni in to surgery. At 2:59PM Garrett Lee-Roy Amerson was born at 1 lb- 11oz and at 3:00PM Kooper Allan Amerson was born at 1 lb- 3.8oz. Jenni is doing great, she is on some pain meds, but for the most part has little pain from the surgery. Kooper and Garrett are each in their own incubator at Doernbecher Neonatal Intensive Care Unit(NICU), they are both on ventilators.

Thank you for posting Casey to keep us all informed of Garrett and Kooper's progress. Please tell Jenni I'm thinking of her and the boys. I've done a lot of work in the past with the March of Dimes and know that there is much to be hopeful for. It's amazing what can be done these days, I'm excited for Jenni's first skin to skin contact with them- I'm sure it will be a very emotional time. I look forward to the many days ahead that will chart their growth and small triumphs! Thanks again,
