My water broke while I was picking up groceries with all the kids. A few hours later Daxton Ray Larsen was born, Sept 15, 2020 at 9:59 pm. He was a month early and had to stay in NICU at Ogden regional for 10 days. We had to wait for his blood sugar to regulate, his body temperature to regulate, and for him to eat enough and pass the car seat test.



He is such a sweetheart and we love his cuteness sooooo much! We are so happy to have him in our family! 




I went to visit sweet baby Kyles grave on his due date a few days later

He seriously has the cutest little face and I hated seeing all those needles and wires hooked up to him and leaving him at the hospital, but had to keep reminding ourselves it was all so he could grow and come home soon





I loved every chance I got to hold him. We had to wear masks all the time and no one but Curtis and I could visit him because of covid, but I was glad I could see him as often ad I wanted and was able
