Happy Birthday Cade!

Here are some pictures of Baby Brooks!!!!!!
He was an hour old here. He was looking at his daddy.
Beth gave this to Ryan as a gift. She had his little footprints put onto a little basketball for Ryan to put in his office. Ryan loved it.

One of our first glimpses of him.
What an amazing picture. He looked at Ryan the whole time we were standing there. It was like Cade had known him already.

Cade Matthew came today at 1:52 p.m. He was 8lbs 14.3 oz and 21 inches long. He is on his way of following in his daddy's footsteps of being a basketball star. His fingers and feet are so long already. He is the most content baby I have ever seen. He just laid in his little crib in the nursery and watched everyone as they looked at him. He is gorgeous. I can't wait until next month so we all can see who he will start to look like. Beth did an amazing job today. Ryan now has two loves of his life. It was so touching to hear him talk about Cade and Beth. What a wonderful new little family. I will post more pictures when I get them.

I kept telling everyone I knew to look at your blog because I knew you'd have pictures posted! Everyone in the family keeps talking about how wonderful you were on Wednesday at the hospital. Beth is so lucky to have such a wonderful friend! I was so upset that I couldn't be there, but glad to know that you were there doing all you could for her! Love the pumpkins you and Courtney put at the house! They are so cute!
