It was love at first sight for our oldest. Madison kissed Cayden the first time they met and they haven't really stopped since:)
Cayden was a bit more aggressive, typical boy!
There's more to the relationship than just kissing, however, much more. Madison has always taken Cayden's hand whether figuratively or literally and shown him the way. I know Cayden is smarter today because of his friend Madison.
Cayden and Noah are 5 months apart and they were destined to be buds. Just look at these sumo wrestlers!

We've had numerous people ask us if they were twins, and there are times, as moms, we've had to do a double take to figure out which son was ours:)
We've had the joy of having various characters show up on our door step each October:

(Whew, good thing we got that in!!!)
Or me getting laid off(note what the cake says, "Happy Loss of Job Lyndi")
And so it only seems fitting that we celebrate this as well:
Congratulations Nate On Your New Job!
We know God has great things in store for your family.
