RIDER FAMILY!

5 generations

This weekend we had Sommer dedicated at church. Sommer was really lucky to have her grandpa Dave do the dedication. After the service we went back to my grandma's house where we had our 5 generation picture taken. WOW! Not many people today can do a 5 generation picture. Sommer is lucky enough to have 2 great great grandma's alive. Today we had my dad's side picture taken and in June we will have my mom's side taken. We are very blessed to have the opportunity to take these pictures!

I love Mommyhood

The joys of Mommyhood.
1) Her sleeping on your chest. Day... Night...Day...Night
2) Seeing her curled up, sleeping soundly, knowing you brought her into the world
3) Feeding her and seeing her little eyes staring up at you with love
4) Little grunts, cries, and squirms... the sounds of life!
5) Little ears, nose, and mouth
6) All nighters, getting to know each other a little better
7) Seeing her with Daddy, Daddy little Angel!
8) Outfit changes, up to 5x a day, how does someone who never leaves the house get so dirty?
9) Nowing that she depends on you for life, a Mommy is someone special
10) Watching her discover new things, even as simple as the light above the kitchen table!

Sommer Lyn's weekend with Auntie Lyn

This weekend Sommer Lyn hung out with her Auntie Lyn. This is the first time that they met and Lyn was so excited to finally meet her! Sommer had fun getting spoiled and held all weekend that she is a little grumpy today. She can be a little bear! Here are some pictures from the weekend!

Update

WOW!

I haven't had time to blog much now that Sommer is here! Seems like that little rascal is taking most of my time, haha. She is great! Growing so much each day. Already she is over 7 lbs 8 oz!!! That's over 1 pound from her birth weight! Her sleeping schedule was really good for the first 10 days and then Sommer decided to not sleep at all. But last night we got back into the old routine and got some much needed rest! Most of my day is spent nursing and burping and cleaning up spit-up. But I wouldn't change it for the world!

My mom made this video of Sommer's Journey into our family! Check it out!
