The reason I was put on this earth, was to be a mother. I now know this after having our first amazing child!

To catch you up...

We have been blessed to have Caden in our lives now for over 2 weeks and let me tell you that my camera has not rested. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the last couple of weeks. Now that I have somewhat gotten used to life at home with a newborn I will try to update a little more often. As far as Caden goes, he is doing wonderful! He just had his 2 week checkup today and the doctor said he quote "perfect". He now weighs 8lb. and is 20 1/4 in. so he is growing and is healthy all that we had prayed for. He is up every 2-3 hours at night and sleeping well in between. Sleep deprivation is something that Kyle and I are still getting used to, but loving every second of it!











Holding daddy's hand




Caden with cousin Macy who is 10 weeks older. Amazing how they grow in 2 months time!

Going Home

Mom and Dad helping us check out of the hospital. When I was pregnant my fear was that I wouldn't be able to have both of our parents there and luckily both Kyle's and my parents were there every step of the way. We are so lucky to have such great families!


We get to take our baby home!!
Car ride home
We are home!!! FINALLY...I didn't think this day would ever come!

Caden and Zoe meeting for the first time. Zoe has been handeling having Cade at home very well. She is very protective and if Kyle or I am holding Caden and someone else tries to touch him Zoe will get very angry!


Daddy giving Cade his first bath at home.


He didn't like it very much!!!

Mom stayed for the following week and was a HUGE help...thanks again mom...loves ya!!
