Update on Ryder!

Hello everyone! Sorry it has been so long since my last post. I have just been so busy adjusting to the roll of mommy! We have been doing great. Ryder is such a sweet, easy going little boy. Hes a snuggler though. He does not like to be put down, but I have to let him fuss sometimes. He has to learn to sleep on his own. He is pretty good during the day, but as soon as we put him in his crib at night he is restless. We swaddle him and play his sound maker for him which helps, but all he wants is to be rocked. So to temporarily solve the problem we put his Mommaroo in our bedroom. I hate running it all night since it was expensive, and I dont want it to die on us. He just wont sleep unless he is in motion. I think it has a lot to do with him being gassy. I think he also gets intestinal cramps. Poor baby. I had the same tummy issues when I was a baby. Thank god he does not have colic. I see all my friends on FB who have babies with colic. They don't sleep a wink. Ryder normally only wakes up once a night to be fed and changed. I don't know what we would do if he kept us up all night. I guess we got a little spoiled. Hes such an angel. Not only is he super good he's also ADORABLE! I swear I have never seen a cuter baby. I know im probably just being biased since he's mine, but that dosnt matter. To Jared and I there is no comparison. He is such a good mix of both Jared and I. from the eyes up he looks like his daddy. Then from the nose down he looks just like me. Im just dying to know what color is eyes are going to be. Im hoping they are Jared's. Mine are just brown. Boring. But Jared's are hazel with a bunch of green in them. They are beautiful. I could go on and on about my little family, but my baby boy is waking up so I have to go feed him. I hope everyone is well and I will post again as soon as I have a little free time.
