Noah is here!









Sorry it's been awhile since the last update, but things have been very crazy around here (in a wonderful way)! Noah Bradley Todd was born February 17, 2009 at 7:16 a.m. He was 8 lbs. 1 oz. and 19 inches long. We came home from the hospital on the night of February 19th - my doctor discharged us early because we were both doing so well! We had a rough few nights at first because Noah had jaundice, and it really made him cranky. He is doing much better now, though, and is gaining weight and sleeping better at night. The last time we went to the doctor he weighed 7 lbs. 6 oz. which is up from 7 lbs. 1 oz (he lost a full pound due to the jaundice). He is absolutely adorable, and we love him so much :)

Kaden has adjusted well to being a big brother! He is really crazy about Noah - he is constantly hugging him and stroking his face and patting his belly. It is really adorable. We can tell there is a little jealousy there, but we are working really hard to make sure we give equal attention to both boys. Some really big news is that today is Kaden's 2nd birthday!!! We are going to have a birthday party for him on Sunday at my parents house with all the family. These past two years have flown by, and we know they are only going to continue to do so with a new baby in the house.

I'll try to keep everyone posted as often as I can!
