Katrina, Me, Sophia and Ryker... I love you guys!! :)
My husband and I have been married for a year now and so much has happened! Craig is now going to school to become a mechanic and working at Knight Transportation in the Brokerage department. I am still at Knight working in the Dry Van division. We just welcomed our newest addition on May 20th 2011. We couldn't be happier...
As most of you know our newest addition finally decided to come. I would have to say Labor and delivery were pretty SIMPLE. I went into labor after my water broke at 2300 hours, 3 hours later I asked for my epidural and Almost 5 hours later it was time to push. Thank heavens for epidurals, because I did not feel a thing. 7 minutes and only 9 pushes later Ryker Eugene Burkhart was born. He was 6 lbs 13 in and the most precious but stubborn baby I have ever met in my life. Little Ryker definitely was not a breastfeeding baby. In fact he hated it. Finally I had to ask for a bottle to supplement. After a day at the hospital we had a little mis-communication with the Dr. and they thought we only wanted to breastfeed our little Ryker. So Ryker unfortunately lost 10oz in one day, which is a huge deal. After staying in the hospital for another night, Ryker finally started drinking formula and he liked it alright, well until he started throwing up everything he ate...Poor little man... It was extremely frustrating. We finally were released from the hospital and less than 24 hours later we were on the road to Idaho. Poor Ryker has already been threw 3 different states... But as far as we all know he loved it. And besides he won't even remember how cruel it was to sit in a carseat for 12+ hours... We love you Ryk.
