Life is full of sweet, funny, happy, joyous and sad moments, some of them all wrapped up into one! Ryder is getting so big and we are so happy he is healthy and growing and changing daily. I am sure this is a somewhat universal parenting experience where you are so excited for the fun things to come and at the same moment wanting to slow time down and enjoy the sweetness of where they are TODAY. I have been feeling this more and more as I seem to be continuously packing up clothes he is growing out of and pulling out new ones to put into rotation. Oh well! Nothing to do but soak in every moment with our sweet peanutty nut!
Ryder is all boy! Not one person has ever asked me his sex... something about him just looks like a little man. He spends Wednesday afternoons with Meg Dangler and her sweet little girls~ Meg took some photos of him yesterday and we cannot believe how GUY he is. Thought you would enjoy! 
The weather has been getting warmer Ryder and I have been doing our best to get out and about for runs in town as much as we can. Aspen Mountain is still filled with snow (and actually stayed open for two additional weekends) but the skies are mostly blue and the roads and trails are dry! I love getting out the exercise and Ryder sleeps like a champ once the Chariot gets rolling so we both have incentive to load up and go!
...three stinkin photos! Two of the inside of the hotel room and one outside on a hike. None of Mom and Dad out on the bikes, none of hanging out with Kailey, none with any of our fun friends we saw, none of me just outside in the beautiful weather! Mom really dropped the ball on this whole event (actually two events!) so I had to take over the blog... If you want something done right, sometimes you just have to do it yourself. Love, Ryder
Hello Ryder fanclub, we had his 4 month Dr appointment yesterday and a lot has changed!
