Jaxen Christiansen

He FINALLY came!! Yesterday at 4:47 Jaxen finally made it to us. He is 7 pounds 15 ounces, and 20 inches long. He's beautiful!! Kris and Rob did such a good job,  i'm so excited for them to be parents! they'll do great.  

He's got the iv's and stuff because he has a little extra fluid in his lungs so he's having a little bit of trouble breathing. it's pretty common with c-section babies so everything will be okay.

She will be remembered as a fighter, who gave unconditional love and support to her children, grandchildren, nephews and nieces. Her life is a true celebration and she will be missed.Jacque is known as a loving, loyal, witty, kind-hearted, and considerate wife, mother, and grandmother. She enjoyed spending time with her family, crafting, attending sporting events, visiting friends and family, and being actively involved in her church. Jacque worked at Beehive Clothing where she leaves many loving and supportive friends. Anyone who knew Jacque is undoubtedly saddened by the loss of such a youthful and spirited individual who put others needs above her own.The family would like to thank the following people for their excellent care of Jacque in her time of need: the staff at Wasatch Medical Clinic, especially Dr. David N. Peterson, Sharon Jones and Marsha Bartlett of Hospice Care, Dr. Botts, and all of the loving and supportive friends, neighbors, and family, with special thanks to Kathy Olsen Green.A viewing will be held on Friday, January 16th from 6-8 pm at Sharon Park 7th Ward, located at 85 East 700 North, Orem, UT.

It's amazing how you can meet someone through a drive thru window, and at first think she is not the nicest person you have ever met, then it turns out she ends up being one of your kindest, loudest, bestest friends. I am so sad about Jacque leaving us, but i know that she is happy and pain free. The last year has been so hard for her and it killed me to see her in so much, pain but all the while she still had her same sassy twinkle in her eye. I love you Jacque and you will be forever missed by so many people.
