caden's own blog

Caden doesn't like to share. He started his own blog at cadenfolkestad.blogspot.com. From now on, that is were the pictures of him will be. He has an attitude already! Sarcastic like his mother! Go check it out, he is lonely over there.

more pics of the little man

sleeping after a big meal

posing in the Love Sac. I think he could get lost in this thing!

Here is more pictures of Caden. This picture is the "vital statistics" of Caden. I prefer to call them stats. Vital statistics sounds like an obituary! Its fun stuff for sure!








Grandma was upset that she didn't get her picture up here too. She wants everyone to know that she came to visit. Like she wouldn't! She is a proud grandma!









Grandpa and Caden sitting in the chair. I think that he is a Grandpa's boy! Or maybe I should say, Grandpa is a Caden's boy. However you put it, its fun to watch!

Caden says "any girls wanna date me?"

Here are some more pictures for you to look at! There will be plenty more to come!

He's HERE!

Caden Glen Folkestad was born on May 25th at 11:58pm. He's a cool dude who is the greatest kid ever to be born. I may be a bit bias on that one though.
All is well with both Caden and Katie.
This daddy is tired, I will post more tomorrow!

Wii Update...

Kate had a doctors appointment today. Here is what the doctor ordered:
1. Continue to play the Wii, the bowling lunges are good for you.
2. Bring the Wii to the Hospital, it will give you something to do.
a. I am not sure if she wanted Kate to bring it so Kate could use it, or so she could.

Its doctors orders, I guess we got some Wii to be playing tonight! Kate has turned into the Wii salesperson!

If this doesn't get labor started, what will?

So, Kate is ready to have this baby! She said that she would do about anything to get it over with. So I suggested that we possibly make an investment into something that just might help. So we bought a Wii. Actually that isn't really how it happened but it sounded better than, chris wanted a Wii and Golf Clubs, Katie said he could have one of the two. But either way, we now how a Wii and BOTH of us love it!

In fact, we had to take a break from it for a while because our arms hurt so bad. I have to be honest Kate is good at bowling. She has some practice times set up for today for her golfing and tennis, but as far as bowling goes, she is good! (I beat her still though!)

So, anyone looking for a fun evening with the Folkestad's, look us up! The Wii is always on!

Here are a few photos for you to enjoy of our first night with the Wii! It was a special night for sure! I just have to see if the doctor will let me bring this to the hospital room! It would sure help the time go by!

Thats all for now

Ultimate Frisbee

Last night was the first of our Ultimate Thursdays. I forgot how much you have to actually run during Ultimate! It was a great time, with a less than Ultimate Frisbee disk. Looks like we need to fine a new one before next week.
The one downfall is I had a bit of a mid air collision with Travis in the end zone. His knee met my thigh, and now I can't walk well. Poor me I know. It wasn't severe enough to keep me from on Tuesday or Ultimate next Thursday! Now if Kate will just please check my schedule before she decides to go into labor, we will be all good!

All for now,
Chris

at what cost?

Katie and I watched Blood Diamond last night. WOW that is a movie that makes you think! It's a bit predictable, but it is a powerful movie! It makes me wonder how much our "luxuries" really cost!

If you are looking for a movie to watch with the kids, this is not it! But if you are looking for a movie that is filled with thought provoking moments, I suggest it!

It earns its R rating, so be aware.

Twins, church softball, and wi-fi news

I am watching the twins right now. It is in the 10th inning with Morneau is up with 2 outs! Man just get a single. WOW a homerun that was awesome! He hit that a mile! That was amazing!

Church softball was good tongiht. We played Alliance 1 who is the old guys from the church. We played well but lost by a run. Oh well. We had a good time!

Great Wi-Fi news! The St. Croix Falls Regional Hospital has Wi-Fi in the rooms. I will be able to give updates on the labor! I am sure Kate will be excited about that! Anyway, look forward to that! :)

Thats all for now, just wanted to give a quick update, but now I need to go and celebrate the Twins Win with a quick shower and hit the bed.

Go Twins!
