Jayden

We were blessed to adopt Jayden in December 2013. He has brought us so much joy since that day. 

 At the time we were working through an agency to adopt. We were able to meet with Jayden's birth mother a few times before the birth. It was so nice being able to get to know her a little.

Jayden and our dog, Izzy, have also been best friends since he came to our family. They still have so much fun together.

For the first few months of Jayden's life he was so calm. We were so happy and enjoyed the transition to parenthood. 

He has loved music since the day he was born and it is always seems to make him happy. He also loved to move from a young age. He enjoyed being in the swing, driving in the car, and being walked. 

 We didn't realize when he was so little and loved moving how that would translate when he got older. As Jayden got a little older and became more mobile, his love for moving only increased! He also seemed to lose a bit of his calmness.

 Jayden is full of personality. He is a very happy and social boy. He loves people. He loves playing. He loves laughing. And he loves being involved any way he can.

We were blessed in July 2014 to be able to finalize our adoption and take Jayden to the temple to be sealed.

 Jayden is so full of spirit. We never new before him how much his spirit would bless our lives.

Every day with Jayden is an adventure, and we wouldn't have it any other way. He is the joy of our lives.
