welcome to our world.


caiden's first hours of life.

so much being done to him and around him.


 measuring.


 listening.


observing.


so many new things to feel.


so many people wanting to love on you.

like big brother and nana.


and who wouldn't want to be loved on by them?


and daddy.


"tickle, tickle, tickle"
dawson's little hands on those tiny feet.



his first visitors.
jana and amy.


the first person to (literally) lay hands on him,
our labor and delivery nurse.
quite possibly the best nurse we could have EVER asked for.


...
and now for life outside of the hospital.

 heading home


with one sweet baby.



and one full family.

welcome to our world, 
little one.
