3 weeks old...
3 weeks old and a *little* high maintenance...but ADORABLE!!
Rylee,
You are quite a handful at 3 weeks old! You prefer your boppy or your swing to your bassinet, which makes nighttime interesting. You eat around 11pm and then again at 3am and then at 6am you're ready to rock and roll!
You love to be swaddled by your daddy...it relaxes you immediately.
You take 3 oz at a time...anymore than that and it's vomit city.
You like laying on your play mat and making little grunting noises.
You LOVE to be held and a lot of the time you whine until we pick you up.
You LOVE your big brother. When we let him hold you, you close your eyes like you are so comfy!
You are not a fan of your carseat, but once we start moving you usually fall asleep.
You like your paci, but sometimes you have a hard time keeping it in your mouth!
You don't seem to mind all the pretty bows I like to put on you!
We love you little girl!

Sooo whaddya think?
Here I am today 34 weeks along with my baby girl! And the second pic (with the braids) I was 35 weeks with my baby boy, and 15 pounds heavier, believe it or not! What do you think? Do the bellies look the same? One higher? One smaller? I can't tell AT ALL!! They look like totally different shapes to me!!
Remember, he came out at 9lbs 13 oz!

A peek at baby Kynzie Lynn!
I'm almost 32 weeks now! Working at an OBGYN office definitely has its perks...the sono tech got this awesome shot of Kynzie yesterday! Look at those cheeks!

Some milestones...
I wanted to record this stuff before I forgot it all!
Saturday, May 16th - Ryder learned to drink out of a straw! We were at McDonald's in Newburgh and he was polishing off a happy meal. (Yes, my ONE year old eats a happy meal!!) I had ordered him a juice box and decided to give it a try. I squeezed it slightly to get the juice flowing and he just started sucking! Now, life is so much easier!
He says SO much now -
"light on, light off" is his favorite game. He loves to flip the switch and watch the lights go on and off. If you don't hear him (or acknowledge him) he starts yelling LIGHT ON LIGHT OFF! He also yells this in public when there is no possible way for you to actually turn the lights on and off.
He says "Down" whether he wants up OR down...it's so adorable!
He frequently says "more" and the way he says it is the cutest thing I've ever heard. It's more like "mbowe" and the look on his face is so serious.
He struggles with his "m" so I'm "ba-ba", not mama, but every now and then he gets the "m" in there and I'm "mamba" or "bama" or some other ridiculously cute combo.
Anytime a phone rings or alerts for any reason, he puts his hand up to his ear and says "hewwo"
His new favorite game is boxing with uncle Johnny. He puts both fists up and starts saying "buh, buh" like punching noises.
At night (around 7:30) we say "Ryder, are you ready for night night?" He gets so excited and runs down the hallway to his bedroom door. If we take too long, he starts knocking. Matt picks him up and I kiss him goodnight and then Matt puts him to bed. We don't hear another peep until around 7am! We are so blessed!
I'm sure there are many more but I just had to get these blogged! We love you Rydee Roo! You are growing up so fast and learning so much! We are so proud of you!

Happy Birthday Big Boy!
Ryder turned 1 on the 25th! We can't believe it's already been a year since he came into our lives. We had his party on Saturday in the barn, and he had a BLAST!
The Setup: We spiced up the barn using standard baby blue decor but we also personalized it with a lot of pictures of Ryder. I also hung a curtain rod displaying layouts of some of his accomplishments.
His seat was the center of the show! Disregard the gross barn door! Eek!
This was when he first entered the barn. He just stood there taking it all in. All the people, the balloons, the decorations...he didn't know what to think!

We had all the food setup in this alcove. To personalize it, I put snapshots of Ryder the day he was born with everyone holding him who came to the hospital. Everyone loved seeing themselves holding him as a little guy!

Mr. Man in his birthday outfit!

The cake table! Since he loves duckies, we decided to do a ducky theme for his cake. You can see they made a baby cake to match so he could have his very own!
He LOVED it! We got him strawberry because on his birthday we gave him a chocolate cupcake and he tasted it and threw it on the ground! The strawberry was an absolute hit!
Roo and his PawPaw. Awwwww!
It was such a fun day...not to mention all the prezzies he received! Thanks everyone for coming! And we missed those of you who couldn't make it. :)

My Boys
Louie was feeling left out, so here are my boys...two drool often and one drools occasionally. What can I say? I'm blessed.
My girls
My speckled Payton and my tan little lovebug Maddy. They would be lost without each other.
Maddy turned FOUR this month. I can't believe it. Maddy is a puggle (her mother is a beagle and her father is a pug) and the absolute BEST pet you could ever imagine. She is medium sized, although MOST of her breed are smaller than her. She loves to snuggle and would do anything for a warm lap to take a nap. If you are in the market for a pet, I suggest checking the shelter for one of these designer mutts. They are absolutely the best!

HE WALKS!
My little baby boy is WALKING! As of February 6th, he is cruising ALL over the place. I tried to photograph him in action so you could see it with your own eyes!

Some of my latest creations...
Journaling says - "You have always loved when I sing Itsy Bitsy for you, but one day you started doing the motions! It took me a minute to realize you were requesting it! Now, we say "Ryder, Itsy Bitsy!" and you start!"
Journaling: "Anytime I try to take your picture, you stop what you are doing as soon as you see the camera, and crawl toward me...full speed."
Journaling Says: "I have always been very loyal, a one man kinda woman, but this year I'm begging...May I have 2 Valentines?"

Progress!
So, this pic was taken May 31, 2008. 148.5. I still weighed this at the beginning of January. I had made no progress whatsoever in 6 months and was so frustrated.
I decided to cut out all fried foods, since that was my weakness. No potato chips, breaded chicken sandwiches, no chinese, no fried rice, no onion rings, NO GREASE!

So 9.5 pounds lighter and a box of hairdye later, I'd say overall it was a fun weekend!
