Caden’s Page

Mommy’s Boys Sherry turned around today in the van to find the boys holding hands and got this picture. We were on our way home after our first trip to the beach this year. Our primary goal was to get some family pictures taken. Caden is now 18 months and Riley is 3 1/2 years […]

It has been an exciting couple of weeks around here. First of all, Caden is doing great. I will get right to the good stuff. Caden busted out into a full blown crawl late last week. Sherry saw him take off across the living room for the first time on Friday. Her mom and dad […]

I am posting a short note to get the word out about our current situation. Caden did not get to go home as expected on Saturday. He actually got transferred to the PCICU where we have been since Saturday afternoon and are being told we will be until at least Monday night. Caden experienced a […]
