Janelle is on her last nerve with the doctor between Adam heart and Alijah having breathing problems it is very taxing on her I am so glad to have a strong wife even know she looks like she is falling apart she has the strength of an warrior i love her with all my heart.

Merry X-mas

Hello one and all
well its been a good year as you all know that we have a new baby on the way and he will be here on 12/30/2008 @ 12pm. Janelle is ready she is very tired and the baby is betting her up on the inside. X-mass was good the boys had a blast and got a lot of hot wheels and there getting excited about the baby were going to name him Alijah we are not sure about a middle name yet but were working on it well that's the good news. Now the bad I got lad off never to return my co. lost a contract that they wanted so the lad us off and moved out of town. I think its going to be a good thing for us although i will miss the job it opened the path to new and bigger things. I'm hoping to get on a police dept. I will be going back to school to get my EMT basic and some other classes to help me get on a P.D. as soon as the baby is here we will call everyone and post some pic's I hope everyone has a Merry X-mass and a happy new year

Good News

Well I got good news I passed my GED. I know that it has been a long time coming. So now my plan is to start applying for police dept after the first of the year I'm hoping to get on with Eugene Police Dept so that we don't have to move but we will go any were the good lord takes us. Well the boys just turned 4 yr old they were singing happy birthday to themselves and clapping it was really cute. Janelle is doing good she is really tired the baby is growing now were just trying to talk the Doctor in to delivering the baby at the end of Dec. We got a call from Hospital the other day and they told us that if the baby was born in January we will have to put a 4500 down to have the baby my deductible for my ins. is 3500 per year. So hopefully the Dr will do it in Dec. Janelle's specialty Dr already said that it was OK we just will have to do an amniocentesis to see if the baby's lung are OK . will I hope that everyone had a marry X-mas and a happy new year just remember in the trying time that we are in that its not what you are going to get it is what you have. The lord Your family and your loved ones is the true gift in life .
love the Jackson's

Well on our last post we told you all that I had lost my job and that thay
were moveing out of town well on my last day i was on my way home and

what a relef I did not know what I was going to do with a baby on the way
and everything else in life so now im going to go back to school and get my

LIFE

Well everyone, the boys are doing great. They are growing up before our eyes. They started preschool in September and love going. They especially love riding the bus. They both are getting so excited for their new baby brother that will be here in about two and a half months. Can you believe that it has gone so fast?
Janelle is doing good. She started having migraines so she has been needing alot of help with the boys. We thought that she was going into preterm labor almost 2 weeks ago, but the contractions stopped so she is just taking it easy and drinking alot of water.
Anthony isnt doing so hot after today. He just found out that after this coming Friday he will no longer have a job. His job didnt get some big contract with the city of Eugene so they decided that they were going to pull out completely. They couldnt offer him a job in Portland because he doesnt have his EMT Basic. He is going to try to go back to school and get a degree in criminal justice, so everyone wish him luck.
Oh yea everyone he only has 3 more test to take and pass then he will have his GED so wish him luck again. Everything always happens for a reason. We just have to have faith and say lots of prayers.

The Jackson's

Hey, Guess What Everyone?

Well Janelle had her ultrasound on August 5, 2008. Its a BOY!!! Aidan and Adam were disappointed that they werent going to have a baby sister. but I think they will be ok with a brother.
Well we did get some bothersome news at the ultrasound too. It seems to be that this baby is going to have a heart defect too, so if everyone can keep us and the baby in their prayers we would greatly appreciate it. love the Jackson's
