Hey Jude!

Here he is by special request....Jude Thaddeus! For those of you that don't know the story behind the name, here it is... Chris' first name is actually Thaddeus, but always went by his middle name Chris. His parents gave him the name from St. Jude Thaddeus, Patron Saint of Miracles and his mom has a story behind that as well. While growing up with about 5 other boys named Chris (including my brother), he decided that he wanted his son's name to be unique and different. We loved the name Jude and kept Thaddeus as the entire part of the saint's name and as a family name. Jude is a Miracle...and we are partial to giving to St.Jude's Children's Hospital when we have the chance. Perhaps he will grow up to be as handsome and charismatic as Jude Law (hispanic version?) or perhaps the song Hey Jude will inspire him to be a creative musical talent. We have also found many meanings for Thaddeus including "from the heart", "Courage", and "Gift from God". All of these describe both father and son alike.
