This was Caden's 1st trip to Harding University. Although the place was empty because of the holidays, we still enjoyed showing Caden where his Mommy and Daddy met.

Caden carries on the Emerson tradition of being a Michigan fan! In this picture he is wearing Daddy's Michigan jersey from when he was little.

After Bath Time
Daddy really enjoys bath time with Caden. Caden loves the warm water and the gentle touch. What is more precious than a clean, naked baby wrapped up in a towel?!?!
Sleeping
He does this alot. Bright lights, loud noise, swinging chair, vibrating bouncy seat, nothing phases him. Praise God for a Champion Sleeper!
Dawson Loves Baby Caden
Dawson asks about Baby Caden all the time, and we're sure that they (along with the other 2 nephews) will be the best of friends in a few years. Dawson and Owen are both so sweet with Caden, and it is a joy to spend time with them!

Sweet face
Can you tell he's gaining weight? His little cheeks are starting to become chubby...in a sweet-baby sort of way.
Sound Asleep
Caden loves to be swaddled when he sleeps. However...last night, he was out like a light and slept nearly 5 hours with his arms in this position! He also kept his passifier in on his own. Brett took this picture with a flash in the dark bedroom...Caden never moved.

Church Day
Today was Caden's first day at Grace Pointe church of Christ. Everyone oooed and awwed over him. When the announcement was made that Caden was in the audience, Daddy held him up for all to see (think Lion King). Daddy was excited to wear his new shirt which read "Caden's Daddy". We were quite the proud parents today!

Mattie & Caden

The girls & Caden
April's grandparents drove from Arlington, Texas to visit their first great-grandson. This was a surprise visit...even to Caden's Nana (April's Mom).
Our little gloworm
Our precious little boy had jaundice the first few days of his life. We were blessed to be able to treat him with photo therapy at home. Sometimes, photo therapy is given by placing the baby under certain lights to help break down the biliruben. Caden had a light that he wore on his back which strapped to his little body. This allowed us to hold him and feed him. Unfortunatly, it required us to keep Caden close to an outlet, making movement limited. The light let off a "glow" making him look like a gloworm. We also had to suppliment his feedings with formula until my milk came in. Caden had his heal pricked to check his biliruben count until it was down to a safe level. Praise God he was only on the machine for four days.

Caden's 1st Halloween
We never dreamed he's make it for Halloween. We always thought he'd be a November baby. Boy were we wrong. Thanks to Gamma for making him a "Caden's First Halloween" bib. November 1st, Caden will be one week old...they were right, time does fly.
