All Boy!


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!

Before and After

Springtime in the Rockies


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!

Two Trips to Fruita and All I Got Was....



...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

Every Girl's Crazy 'bout Sharp Dressed Man

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!

TeeHeeHee

Today was the last clinical rotation for my class! I got home and was so excited to see Andy and Ryder~ they were upstairs working on bikes. Andy managed to get some good video of Ryder giggling (until he sees the camera and freezes up!!). We have had a hard time getting photos of him smiling but I think this makes up for it! Enjoy~

Picture worth 4 words...


I think the tee shirt says it all! (thanks Aunt Kate!)

4month Dr appointment, Vital Stat Update!


Hello Ryder fanclub, we had his 4 month Dr appointment yesterday and a lot has changed!

Weight: 13lbs, Length: 24 1/4 inches

He is now 49% in weight, 51% height and 50% head circumference~ Woo Hoo!
We are so excited he seems to be widening out from the previous 'beanpole' classification and is otherwise healthy as a little horse

Baby Boot Camp


Even though Ryder hates being on his tummy, we are trying to get strict about making him hang out there... Gotta get that neck strong!
