Simply 6.

I can hardly believe we are at the 6 month mark. Each month seems to pass quicker than the previous. Ryden continues to amaze us everyday. He is easy going, happy and quite the nosy fellow. Like his mother, he has to be totally aware of surroundings. He freely gives away lots of smiles to whomever he meets and loves new friends.

Ryden and I had a little conversation today about the New Year...

The Flip

My love of photos is being taken to the next level with my new flip. Here is the first of many videos taken on it. Hopefully we will have more entertaining videos in the future but here is our debut...

Merry Christmas!

Bounce, Bounce, Bounce

Ryden loves that he is big enough now for his bouncing play gym and so am I! Now I have something to occupy his time in the morning while I make my morning espresso! It's a win, win, huh?!

Unforgettable 5.

Each passing day Ryden shows us more of his wonderful personality. He continues to be happy, easy going and is becoming definitely more active. This month he also showed us his strength and tested ours. We love him more everyday. Here are some new things about Ryden this month.

• Started eating and liking rice cereal.
• Has mastered rolling both ways and if you look away for a minute he will have rolled across the floor.
• Loves to grab at his toes and peoples hair or noses.
• Is ticklish on his tummy, feet and behind his ears.
• Is easy to make laugh.
• Loves to cuddle and be held.
• Loves bath time.
• Can sit when supported.
• Is good at playing with and manipulating toys.
• His two bottom teeth just came in and I think this is making him wake up every two hours again at night=). (I told Ryden all I want for X-mas is 8 straight hours of sleep. Do you think he is going to give it to me???)
• Makes a new noise that sounds like a dolphin.
• Hair is starting to grow a little and still has those beautiful blue eyes.
• Is 15 lbs now.

Pearly Whites

As if Ryden hadn't been through enough pain lately, to add insult to injury his two first teeth decided to break through the gums. Don't get me wrong this is very exciting, but horrible timing! I can't wait to see how these new additions will change the look of our little man but I will miss that gummy lil smile!
