Johnny Cash, Aunt Nannie and Stryder

So Stryder's Aunt Nannie (we came up with this name after much debate over what Stryder should call my youngest sister Annie. Aunt Anne, Aunt Annie and Auntie Anne just didn't work) loves Johnny Cash and wanted to play a song for Stryder and as you can see he loved it! He even joined in with his own little solo!!



Newborn Photo Shoot

The same photographer who took my maternity photos asked if she could take newborn pictures once I had Stryder to build her newborn portfolio. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to capture priceless pictures of Stryder when he was so fresh and brand new (he is 9 days old in these pictures). It wasn't an easy photo shoot (it was hot from the heaters we had blasting to keep Stryder warm, he wet through at least one blanket, he woke up multiple times as we tried posing him) but it sure was memorable and memories are for a lifetime!
