Day 45, July 21st 2009
This is Jadon at his 6 week check up with apprentice midwife Kelly Troyer. She is the one that arrived 5 minutes before Jadon was born and was able to assist with his birth. I finally got a picture of the two of them. This was our last appointment with the midwives (our appointments were at midwife Kelly McIntosh's home) after many months, it's bitter sweet. They took wonderful care of Jadon and I. We are both grateful to them. What a fantastic experience it was.
Jadon was weighed and measured. He weighs 14 pounds and is 25 inches long! Healthy boy.
Day 44, July 20th 2009
LOVE Jadon's sweet kissable feet! He has beautiful long thin toes that he curls.

Day 43, July 19th, 2009
In this picture you can see how big Jadon's soft spot is.
Here is "Little Mister" as Jenea affectionately calls Jadon, in his suit after church. Quite the little man he is.
Day 42, July 18th, 2009
It's another hot July day! Lounging around with daddy and big brother Jude.
Jadon likes daddy to be walking around when he holds him. I suggested to Paul he wear Jadon in my sling. He said he wants something more manly so on Friday I found this "manly" carrier at a garage sale for $2.00. This is his first time trying it out. Jadon wasn't so sure about it, but it worked.
Day 41, July 17th, 2009
I thought I'd take a picture of the back of his head. You can see how the bones are sticking out on his lower head, and how he has just a little bit of hair. He has the same hair style as grandpa Tuttle, peach fuzz on the top, hair around the back. So cute!
Day 39, July 15th 2009
Snoozing in the hot weather under the ceiling fan.
Love those fat little cheeks!
Day 35, July 11th, 2009
Jadon sitting with great grandma Williams big bear that she kept in her bedroom for many years. We got this bear after she died and will treasure it.
Day 34, July 10th, 2009
Hanging out at The Cabin with the Williams side of the family after great grandma Williams burial service.
Day 33, July 9th, 2009
We took a family trip to great grandma and grandpa Williams home on Round Butte. We traveled there the day after attending great grandpa Grahams funeral so we could attend great grandma Williams viewing and grave side service. Great grandma Williams died on July 6th. Jadon never got to meet her.
Day 32, July 8th, 2009
A rare moment when Jadon is allowing Paul to hold him while he's laying down. Usually Jadon likes daddy to walk around while holding him.
Day 31, July 7th, 2009
Jadon's first time to the beach. He slept the whole time in the sling. It was a very windy, cold day at Gold Beach that day. I enjoyed walking up and down the shore with him collecting beautiful white rocks.

Day 30, July 6th, 2009
Jadon on his first boat trip. We spent the day on Jerry's Jet Boat going down the Rogue River. We stopped 34 miles in land from the ocean, had lunch, then jetted back. It was a nice day. Jadon slept most of the trip. He tolerated being in that life jacket well.

Day 28, July 4th, 2009
Jadon with his brothers and sisters. It's tradition that the kids have matching clothes for each 4th of July. I was blessed to find the outfits with the help of my mother-in-law. Of course all we could find for Jaren was a dress. With the help of my visiting teacher Jackie we turned the dress into shorts.
Jadon in his 4th of July outfit. We went to the annual Gold Beach fair, lasted all of an hour because it was freezing, then we watched fireworks from the beach house deck. Jadon slept through everything.
Day 27, July 3rd, 2009
Jenea and Jadon at the beach house we stayed in, Gold Beach, Oregon for our annual 4th of July Graham family reunion.
Snoozing in the beach house window seat with Jenea's favorite doll Julia, just to show how small Jadon is.
I wore Jadon a lot while on vacation to keep him safe from 8 other children and two dogs.
Day 26, July 2nd, 2009
Jadon likes Paul to walk around when he holds him. Paul would rather sit down, but Jadon cries. I offered Paul my sling to put Jadon in so he can be "hands free", but Paul said my sling is too "girly", I guess we are on the hunt for a more "manly" baby carrier.

Day 25, July 1st, 2009
I spent a lot of time journaling after Jadon was born. I enjoy his company while I do it.
Day 24, June 30th, 2009
Jadon in Jenea's old car seat. We keep this seat in the house for him to sit in when I need to set him down while I'm doing some task in which I can't wear him, like showering. He much prefers being worn (in his wrap) or slung (in his sling) than sitting in that hard chair. I don't blame him.
Day 22, June 28th 2009
Big sister Jolie saying goodnight to Jadon. Each evening I make my rounds to all 4 kids with Jadon in tow to pray with the children, rub their backs and of course let them hold and kiss their new brother.
