We've had a long winter of building up Kaden's immune system and I think he's pulled through fairly well! Brian and I, on the other hand had our systems tested, again and again!

Kaden continues to delight us with the typical baby stuff like talking and walking! He still thinks that crawling gets him places faster than walking. He loves books and music and he's got a pretty good throwing arm! As you can see from the pics he's a mover and a shaker and loves a new adventure!

Judging by the yogurt explosion, I guess the time to give Kaden independence with his spoon skills is NOT in the car! We are all learning together and enjoying him immensely!

Kaden is now letting me put gear on his head for dress up opportunities and Brian continues to go along with my need to do things with a theme! Easter at Karen's was celebrated with a 'biker' theme and we had as much fun hunting down the clothing options as we did hunting down the eggs!

Hello again! Time flies by and I try to keep taking pictures of the 'firsts' that are happening on a daily basis. Updating the blog is another challenge! Here is Kaden in March '06 and we were celebrating the end of the time frame for reversing the initial adoption decision. It took us a year of paperwork etc. to finalize the adoption, and on March 2nd, 2007 we had that opportunity to celebrate in court and sign the papers! We were very thankful to Linda and Jimmy who had to sign the consent forms again, a year later when paperwork went missing!

Here's a few shots of Kaden celebrating St. Paddy's day with his grand aunties! He absolutely loves the accordian!
