2 Months!!

Well, Augie turned 2 months on January 13th. Time sure does fly, but we are keeping our hands full with Augie and big brother Kale.
When we went to the doctor Augie was 22 3/4 long, 12lb 9oz and his head was 15 1/2 inches. He is almost the exact opposite of Kale. Augie is shorter and pudgier and Kale was tall and skinner. They both sure do have their own identity.
I posted some recent pictures so everyone can see what he looks like. Augie is really cooing, smiling and just an all around good baby.
We are not sure who he looks like, sometimes Kale, sometimes Todd, sometimes nobody.
We would love to hear your comments.
I am sorry it has taken me so long to post. I will try to be better.

CODE ADAM!!!!!

Sunday was a very stressful and emotional day for us. We were at Walmart after church. Everything was going fine until we had to pay. I thought that Kale was with Todd and Todd thought Kale was with me. Vicki was also with us and Todd and Vicki went running back and forth looking for him. The store put out a Code Adam looking for a 3 year old little boy with blonde hair and a black shirt.

After about 5 minutes, a woman brought Kale in from the parking lot. He said he was out there looking for mommy. What a scary time!!! He just takes off in the blink of an eye. I am thinking about investing in a harness for him.

Just make sure you keep your eye on your kids at all times. I think I do, but there he went.

Brotherly Love

Once we found out we were having another boy, our hopes would be that they would be best friends. As you can see by the pictures below, we are well on our way.

Kale absolutely adores Augie. He always wants to be around him and has to know where he is at all times. Whenever anyone is holding him, Kale thinks that they are going to take him and he gets really upset.

I know all of this will change, but we are enjoying it now. The pictures below are from when Augie was born all the way up until Christmas. Yes, the one in the crib, Todd found Kale in the crib with Augie telling him about the fish in the aquarium.

Enjoy!

Happy New Year 2008!!!

2008 has already been exciting year for us. On November 13, 2007 we welcomed Augie Tudeen Rader into our family. He was 7lbs 11 oz and was 19.5 inches long. If you would like to see his newborn photo, you can log onto http://www.bromenn.org/ and check it out.

Once Augie came we had a busy month and a half. YES we did have Kale's birthday party 4 days later. Everyone thought I was crazy, but you only turn 3 once and I wanted to make it special for Kale. We then had Thanksgiving and Christmas. It was once again a great time with family and friends, but busy and tiring, especially with 2 kids to tote around now.

I have decided, thanks to a neighbor, to start a blog. I thought this would be the easiest way for me to update everyone, hopefully on a regular basis and show some recent pictures.

I hope you enjoy and I will hopefully update soon.

Have a great day!!!
