All Things Jadin

These pictures are my latest favorites of Jadin. Hope you aren't getting sick of him yet. I'm sure there are plenty more to come too.




When Jake gets home from work, he makes sure to spend the first fifteen minutes in the door just cuddling, tackling, and loving on Jadin. Then if I'm lucky, he will throw in a kiss for me too. :)
Jadin knows about what time dad comes home and he will just hang out around the door waiting for Jake. We have been blessed with a cuddle-bug. Jadin will just lean his face right up against ours. I hope he doesn't outgrow it too soon.








"From God's arms, into ours!"
















I call this my "grown-up" picture of Jadin. He just looks so grown-up to me now-a-days. There is no sign of that little preemie baby I had a year ago. He is all boy too. People say they love his laugh because it comes from his belly. And when he cries, it's almost like a grunt. He started repeating words just this past week. He said, "thankyou" and "peek-a-boo"! I couldn't believe it. No one told me that this would happen over night!

Jadin is handsome and cute and just plain adorable!! He definately is not anything close to the premie that you had. I'm so excited that he'll be talking next time I see him. Hopefully its not paragraphs the next time I see him!!!

Head, what a great post. And PLEASE, we are so NOT sick of hearing about Jadin. He is such a stud. I love his grown-up picture. It reminds me of that picture you took of Ez peeking around the corner at mom and dad's when he was about the same age. Seriously, I am so impressed with what amazing parents you and Jake are. I seriously am impressed! Thank you for including us in the little guys life even though we are so far!
Love you guys!
