Cameron and April's Wedding

As promised, here are some pictures from Cameron and April's wedding. You would never know looking at the pictures that it absolutely poured during the wedding, it still turned out beautiful and everyone had a great time.

7 weeks old

Riley is 7 weeks old today! I can't believe he is almost 2 months already, the time is literaly flying by. The big guy got his first hair cut today, can you believe he needed one at 7 weeks! The lady who cut it said he is the youngest baby she has ever cut and the place I took him to only does kids so that is saying something. Hopefully the hair stays on his head and he won't end up being the hairy kid!

Riley and I went to a Stroller Strides class on Monday which is a group of moms (and dads) that get together and work out with an instructor and get to bring our kids along. I loved it so much that I signed up for 3 days a week and am looking forward to my next class on Friday.

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Watts!

So, I am happy to announce my brother got married on Saturday. The wedding was absolutely beautiful but rather interesting...

Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate and started pouring and lightening right as the bride walked down the aisle. Ryan and I were both in the wedding party so we were standing up there getting absolutely soaked. The wind came through so fast that all the flowers at the alter blew over and the pastor had to skip right to the vows. Fortunately, the weather could not stop them from getting married.

While the ceremony was going on, the catering company was trying to keep the tent from blowing away and trying to save all the food. Luckily, they reacted quickly because they were able to move all the food and cake inside before it was ruined.

The weather eventually subsided and everyone ended up having a great time. I admire Cameron and April for how well they handled the whole evening because I know how much time and effort went into planning the wedding. She was the most beautiful bride I have ever seen and I am so happy to have her as a sister. I was terrible this weekend and didn't take a single picture, I will post pictures of the wedding once I get some.

A Day at the Zoo

Riley and I spent the afternoon at the zoo with Tessa and her son Matt who is 14 months old. It was Riley and Matt's first time at the zoo and Matt seemed to really enjoy it, he especially loved the cows. Riley and I will have to go back to the zoo another time since he slept through the entire afternoon.

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Moran!

We had a pretty eventful weekend in Spokane for Sarah and Dan's wedding. We left Friday morning and arrived in time for the rehearsal at St. Al's church on the Gonzaga campus. The church is incredibly beautiful!

My parents drove up Friday night and watched Riley for a couple of hours so Ryan and I could go out with the bridal party for a couple of hours (it turned out mom watched Riley and dad went with us, thanks mom!)

Since I was in the wedding, Riley hung out with Ryan all day while I was getting my hair and makeup done. Riley was quiet and slept through the whole ceremony. Everyone wanted to hold him at the reception and all the attention wore him out because he slept through pretty much the whole night even with the loud music and dancing.

Unfortunately, Ryan's first father's day was spent driving home from Spokane. We slept in too late to go to a nice breakfast and ended up just grabbing Starbucks. We stopped for a quick visit at Jeff and Hilary's house before heading home. Even though we didn't really get to celebrate, Riley and I are so lucky to have such a great daddy and husband!

5 Weeks

As of yesterday, Riley is 5 weeks old! I took him to the doctor this morning because I am a paranoid mom and he wasn't pooping as much as normal. The doctor said he looks great and he is perfectly healthy. She weighed him and he weighs 11 pounds 4 oz and has moved up into the 80th percentile (up from the 75th percentile at 2 weeks old). He is a little piggy so this didn't surprise me at all!

Yesterday was the first day that it hasn't rained in about a week so Riley and I took advantage of the clear weather and went for our first walk around Greenlake. I am kind of embarrassed to admit this, but I am a little sore today. I have a ways to go before I am back in pre-pregnancy shape!

All bundled up and ready for our walk
