Well it was a special day today, a day that I want to remember for ever. We blessed our very cute baby boy Ayden today. It was a great thing. He was blessed by his very cute daddy, Cy, and was surrounded by family and friends during the blessing. Cy did a great job despite being a little nervous (I was too and I just had to sit there). Ayden was very quiet during the blessing which I was very thankful for since the past few days he has had a cough, a fever and a very stuffy nose and to say the least has been a little grumpy. So of course I was a proud mommy when he was a star today!
I think about how fast this past three and a half months have gone by. It amazes me everyday how one day this little baby comes into our lives and whammo your a family. Our 'little bundle of joy' has changed our lives so completely and of course he makes life just a little harder :) by getting up three times a night or crying while I am trying to feed the horses, but when he smiles and looks up at you its then that you realize that those 'hard' things just melt away and he brings us all closer together. I love it!
Here is four generations of Aydens family. Great Grandpa Johnson, Grandpa Hendricks, Dad and baby.
Here we have moms family (minus Lisa and Niels and family who are in North Carolina and Tys who took off before we had a chance to capture him on digital 'film'). Its so such a great thing to have wonderful parents as an example to follow.
Of course all of the excitement wore baby out. Here he is sitting in his swing with his new blanket that Jeral gave him. Jeral is his five year old cousin who has totted 'blankie' around with him since he was born. Jeral handed blankie off to baby Ayden so he could enjoy it just like he dad. So very nice!

Great pictures and such a sweet memory for you guys! It's always so great to have family there to celebrate with you.
Kris, these are such cute pictures. You are such a good little mommy! I'm so glad that we were able to make it to the blessing. Cy did such a great job! Congrats guys!
Hey chicky, I thought you were never going to do the blogging thing. It's funny how being a PROUD mom changes everything. I didn't even know you had a blog until you left a comment for me. Yes I am sorry I didn't call and come over and chat. On the way home I was telling mom I wish we had stayed another day so I could have met up with you and seen how much Mr Ayden is changing and I think Kylee asks me once a week at least if we can go visit that girl who has horses. SHe can't ever remember your name, but it's you she is talking about He is a cutie and you are such a natural mom. I love it. NOw I'll be able to keep up on your life with your blog.
