Happy Birthday Jaden!!

Jaden is 1 year old!! So it is picture time. We had a friend take these, and she did an AMAZING job. We were so excited to get them back and see 87 photos to choose from, we loved them all!! Jaden wasn't very smiley that day, so he would give us these serious faces. They turned out to be adorable.

Hailey loved getting her picture taken. She was all over the place striking a pose. For this shot of the two of them, we had to teach Hailey how to sit in a skirt without her panties showing (it was pretty funny).

I am so proud to be Jadens "Mamma". He melts my heart! He is such a boy and loves to get into everything. He loves playing with his sister. Even though he is smaller, for now, he loves keeping up with Hailey and tries to be a big kid. One little personality trait Jaden has is, you cant get him to do anything unless he thinks it is his idea. He has been this way since he learned to hold a bottle. I would try giving him a bottle and he would repeatedly turn away. I would have to set it down and walk away, and as soon as I did he would grab it and drink it. He also loves to cuddle. Jaden is usually the first one awake in the morning. I will go get him from his crib, and before I can put him down, or feed him breakfast, we will sit on the couch together and cuddle before starting our day. He often stops what he is doing, like playing with toys, or emptying my bookshelves, and will come give me a hug :) I love my little man!! I am so happy, and blessed to have him in our little family.
