And for good measure, can you tell who is who? (Ok, I know, it's SO obvious)

Sierra is the top picture, and of course Ryder is the bottom. Notice the 'hand-me-down' dinosaur pajama's?!?!
It's been a blessing having Ryder in our lives and we look forward to all the adventures to come. And to all our NICU buddies, happy National Preemie Awareness Day. Big hugs!
