Pics of Our Boys and Tad's Blessing Day!!

Bro Griffin offered to take pictures of Tad for his portfolio and it ended up being a photo session for both boys...Lucky us! The pictures turned out fabulous. A Big Thanks to Bro Griffin! The cute matching overalls are courtesty of Gma Shirley.

We blessed Tad a few weeks ago. Rob gave a beautiful blessing and we had a great time with family and friends afterward. We are lucky to have all these wonderful people in our lives and double lucky...Blessed...to have our boys!

One of my all time favorite pics of MY BOYS!

There are four generations in this picture...on both sides of the family.

With the Grandpa's...

Daddy and Tad

Mommy and Tad

Our Precious Baby Tad!

(I'm pretty sure we have the exact same pic of Rylend...

they wore the same outfit)

He's Here!

Thomas Allen Duve (TAD) was born on June 25th. He was 7lb 5oz and 19in long. He and Mommy are both doing great! We think he kinda looks like Rylend as a newborn, so it will be interesting to see how much they end up looking alike as Tad gets older. We are so happy to have both our boys! We are so blessed!

Rylend is a great big brother! He loves to give baby Tad lots of kisses!

The pics below are when he first met Tad at the hospital. He was so sweet...he just kept patting and kissing his new little brother.

Here's our newest addition...all ready for the ride home from the hospital.

We wanted to show everyone the resemblance Tad has to his brother. The first pic below (arms up) is Tad and the one below that (in the blanket) is Rylend. They don't look identical, but there is a certain familiarity between the two. We love them both so much!

New Family Pics!

Caitlin has been taking pictures from the day she could hold a camera and it has paid off. She recently did a family/pregnancy photo shoot for us and the pictures turned out really well. It was her first time doing something like this and I am really proud of the results. She has been taking a photography class and was able to borrow one of the really nice cameras from school. Check out her work...
