They say that when one door closes another one opens, well just 3 days after losing my Uncle Barry to Pancreatic Cancer, my sister-in-law gave birth to my niece Riley. Riley was born on Monday, May 11th at 7:34 AM weighing in at 6 lbs 4 oz. Erin was lucky enough to only have a 7.5 hour labor – I can only hope!! Considering my labor with Caitlyn was 18 hours and 3 of those hours were spent pushing, then she was delivered by c-section, I’m hoping this time around it will be a little easier or at least quicker. Anyways, back to Riley….
She’s doing well. My parents are down in San Diego visiting right now and heading home on Wednesday, so they can be back here for when I go into labor.
Erin’s mom, Karen, painted Riley’s room and it looks amazing! Todd didn’t want anything too girly, so they went with Bumblebees. I can’t wait to see it in person but I’ll have to settle for pictures for now.
Here are some of the pictures that I have received from Erin as well as my parents. What a cutie she is. We’ll unfortunately have to wait until Labor Day weekend to meet her in person. We’re planning on all heading to the family cabin for that weekend. Can’t wait!

I'm ready, where are we going?
I can't believe my "little" brother is a Daddy!

She is a sweetie! What a wonderful addition to an already completely adorable family!
I was planning to bulk comment at the end, but little Riley is just too precious! I love her room, what a talented person Erin's mother is! How much fun are all the little girls going to have growing up together!
