Kaeden's 1st birthday

Today Kaeden turns 1 year old.
My what a year it has been....
I have only been able to witness his life thru pictures his Mom & Dad have posted online for me. I am so thankful for them.

I was there when he was born early that morning,

all 9 lbs 4 oz 21 inches of him.

I got to hold this sweet boy and kiss his face..

Once he got home, his older brother Kaleb got to hold him and welcome him home.

Photobucket
I was able to hold him one more time before my flight left.

Quite a busy year for him. He really is such a sweet happy baby. Always smiling,
has such expressions on his face. Really smart, and loves to watch his older brother Kaleb.
He has been such a blessing to this family and all of us lucky enough to LOVE him.
Happy Birthday Kaeden!!! Granny loves you!

Can't wait to watch him grow and start running... now the fun really begins at home. Trying to keep up with 2 mobile kids!

Gotta run...
Later Darlin'

WOW...I can not belive how big he is in those pics. I have not seen him since I first got back and I swear he looks twice the size now he did just 4 months ago. What a sweet baby and such a lucky lucky boy to have such a great family!! Thanks so much for putting that up. It made my morning!! - Jessica Hoover

Man alive, that boy just screams, "God sent me!!"

Thanks for posting Kaeden's life in pictures, so far, Lori. I cry at the volumes of Blessings your family has, starting with beautiful Brandi. God let us keep her and look what she has done for Him, in return. She helped Him make miracles.....

Big ol' sloppy smooches to that one-year-old, on his BIG day!!!

xxoo

Happy First Birthday to Kaeden, he sure is a smiling little guy. A chunk of chocolate as my cousin Joe used to say, a cubby little baby you could just eat up. May
