Breaking Ryder News: Off to the races!

Well, it's official! He's on the move... Lookout Mom and Dad, lookout Wrigley and Hatch, lookout world!

Scavengers....

Now that Ryder is eating in the highchair the doggies have really stepped up their begging. They have both become experts in Cheerios, puffers and Graham Crackers~ ready and waiting...

D-town

We went to Denver last weekend to meet Ryder's newest cousin (Luke) and the weather was fantastic! Super warm, time at the park, bluebird skys and lots of fun playing! We love little Luke-Man and can't wait for him and Ryder to be such great buddies. He is a great little baby, eatin and sleepin like a champ!

9 months!

Ryder is 9 whole months old! Where does the time go?! Here we are at his Dr's appointment. He is doing great but is a little peanut. Right now he is in the 25% for height and the 15th for weight! It is so interesting because 90% of people who see him remark about how big he is... one of my friends said he seems so big because of his 'presence'! Maybe that's it?!

'Orange' you glad I posted this video?

Ok.... last 'baby eating something sour' video for a while... ! I promise...
This is Ryder trying a slice of my orange during lunch the other day.
tooooooooo funny

Welcome! Luke James Kubik

Ryder would like to put an official 'welcome' out there to his new cousin, Luke Kubik. These little guys will be running around together before we all know it!!

Luke was born Sept 1 in Denver, CO and was a healthy 8lbs,4oz, 21inches

He is doing great at home and we cannot wait to get down to Denver to meet him as soon as possible!!

Rockin'

Ryder is still working on the crawling (and we are trying to enjoy the last few days of immobility!) but he has now mastered being on all-fours and rocking back and forth. For now, he is able to crawl backwards and roll to wherever he wants to go... stay tuned!

Splish Splash

We have been bathing Ryder in a blue plastic tub (lovingly handed down from Lilly and Davis Place) and Andy really felt it was time to get little man his own 'big boy tub.' SO! 3 photos for you: 1. Last bath in the old tub, 2. First bath in the new tub!, 3. Wrapped up post-bath
