Right on Time

Born at 1:39 AM Aug. 11.  7 lb. 14 oz.  21.5 inches

He deserves a round of applause for starting his entry into the world on his actual due date.

(Though he was born in the wee hours of the next day.)

 He gave his out-of-state  grandparents a chance to drive for several hours and be there for the announcement of his healthy delivery.

He gave his local grandparents a chance in the waiting room to make it to Phase 10 of the game with the same name.

He gave his local aunt - a labor and delivery nurse - the chance to encourage his mother in her labor

with observations of her progress made.

He gave his labor and delivery nurse at the hospital the chance to practice her skills and proficiency to make his entry peaceful yet celebrated.

He picked a quiet, early time to be born with his mother's favorite doctor on call.

He gave his first cries of life to his joyful parents.

He gave his father his first tattoo!

Two feet:  Ten toes.  This tattoo is temporary (we think).

We are overjoyed to announce to the world the news of the birth of

Kaden John Lindahl

He is not only right on time, but fits perfectly right in the center of our hearts 

where love pumps and oozes for this newest family member!

  Welcome to the world, Kaden!

Congratulations to Kari and John!

All seems suddenly right with the world, too.
