Beckstead Reunion

The Beckstead reunion was last weekend, camping, swimming and dirt bikes it was a lot of fun! It was good to see everyone and hang out for the weekend. Saige loved camping and swimming! She was such a good girl there. Tukker and I were able to go for a small dirt bike ride, it was really fun and great to go out with my amazing husband!

2 Months

 Saige is now 2 months old! I can't believe how much she has grown and how smart and strong she is getting already! She is so fun and we love her to pieces! She is a very happy girl and smiles a lot.  She loves loves to be outside! She loves bath time and swimming! She sleeps good during the night. Her new favorite thing to do is suck on her fists, coo, and blow bubbles! Tukker and I are extremely blessed to have her!

DDH

Since Saige was breached, her pediatrician advised us to get an ultrasound on her hips to see if she had DDH. DDH is developmental dysplasia (dislocation) of the hip, it is most common in breached girls. In a normal hip the femur fits firmly into the socket but with DDH it's a loose fit and may be dislocated easy. Her ultrasound pictures were sent to Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake, and so were we. There we found out she has a mild case of DDH and she needs to wear a harness to keep her bones in the right place so they can develop properly. She has to wear it for at least a month, then they will check to see how shes doing and go from there.


The first couple of days she was not happy with her new restrictions, but she is slowly getting used to them. I am still trying to get used to them too. It makes it hard to hold her, feed her and snuggle her, but we know its for the best and we are being positive and hopeful that this will fix the problem.

Trying to stretch. She needs to wear this for at least 23  hours a day.
I had to add this one of her yawning. She is just too cute!

Wore out after a super busy day. That night she slept 6 hours, woke up to eat then slept another 3! We are so thankful for everyone coming and making a special day even better! We are so blessed with such wonderful families! I am extremely blessed to have Tukker! He is my love, my life, my best friend. I love him so much and thank my Heavenly Father every day for letting me have him. I am so thankful that he has the priesthood and that Saige and I can have it in our home. Tukker and I are so very thankful for our wonderful daughter. We love her more than we can even say and very grateful that God has trusted us with such a sweet, beautiful spirit!
