Cute Kid, Eh

Love @ First Sight??


The Sutphins came up with Madelyn so we could arrange her marriage with Caden. After all, arranged marriages have lower divorce percentages than non-arranged marriages. It is for their own good. Jason is a shrewd negotiator, but I widdled him down to 101 goats.

The Finished Baby Room


So the room wasn't finished yet, but we were supposed to have 4 more weeks. With Dana's (Janelle's mother) help, we finally got it done and it turned out pretty good.

Where's Caden???


If you look hard you can find Caden in this pic

Soak up the Sun


After Caden saw his parents complexion, he insisted on getting an early start on the tan.

Mothers Day


My Grandmother had a hard time letting go of Caden. I think this is generally referred to as a "baby hog" (which doesn't mean that Caden is fat)

Caden for President


With that pose, I think he may have a political future.

My favorite animal is a Manatee




Lets face it. The kid's lifestyle resembles that of a manatee right now. He just sleeps and eats, so most of the his pics will be of just that.

Caden (don't be jealous of my middle name) Crusoe was born on May 9th @ 4:42 am (4 weeks early).

He was 6 pounds even, 20 inches, and so far a very content and happy baby.

More pics coming soon, I am sure.

Some pics of our most recent shower. Michelle, the hostess with the mostess, did a "fabulous" job and we appreciate all her hard work and her friendship..


If we rub it, it will give us good luck

Janelle got a pretty bad neck cramp from always looking up to me

Here is a current pic of the three of us. Janelle is a tad bit concerned with the size of Caden's head
