My way?? Sideways!!


Ryder has started a new little trend... sleeping on his side! Not sure where this came from but both of his parents sleep like this so maybe he inhereted it?? There doesn't seem to be a preference for one side or the other as long as he is sideways.

Denver Trip





Well! Mom and Dennis just got home for their fantastic vacation in Europe and have a whopping 1 week turn around before heading off to Michigan for another month so Ryder and I ran down to Denver for a couple of days to see them. We had a wonderful trip, bbq at Mim's and Pa's house on Thursday, I got out for a bike ride with a great friend who hasn't seen Ryder since he was about 4 weeks old, and we had some professional photos taken for Andy's first fathers day gift. The weather was fantastic and I am so greatful to have gotten some very nice one on one time with my mom! We are all very excited for the Michigan trip coming up in July.

Here are some pics: 1. Spending time with Bunna Shirley, 2. Baba with Aunt Kate, 3. yummm... bracelets are yummy! 4. Dinner out with Mims and Pa, 5. Ryder with the awesome professional photo we gave Andy for father's day.

Hot Shot!




Another one of Ryder's sitters snapped some more photos of him for us the other day and they are so cool! We thought Ryder's fan club would enjoy... She is certainly a LOT better at getting him to smile for the camera than I am!!

6 months.... WHAT?!?!



Wow! it has officially been SIX months since Ryder came into our lives! How did that happen so quickly?! Holy smokes is all I have to say! A lot has changed: less sleep, less play, more poop, and more love than we ever would have imagined...
We had a great 6month Dr's appointment and here are the updated vital stats:
25.5 inches = 50% for height, 15.5lbs = just under the 25% line!
Back to bean-pole status I guess! Just one more factor from the Poole side of the house... :-)

The Office, 2

I have some Ryder video I have been meaning to post so I will get to it in the next week or two! This is him in his "office"~ he has really made some advances since the last one... unfortunately, he still has no interest in that camera!

2010 Teva Mountain Games, Vail




This last weekend we went over to Vail for the 2010 Teva Mountain Games! This has become a fun, and hectic, annual event~ an opportunity to play hard, catch up with great friends and truly soak up the sun. Lisa did the mountainbike race on her single speed bike and Ryder hung with Andy. The race was exciting and Lisa was able to overcome a flat tire to end up in second place... Photos: 1. Ryder rocking his Street Swell gear! Go Team! 2. Very dirty Lisa and very tired Ryder after the race 3. Podium shot 4. Ryder heading into Vail with his Teva VIP pass

Summer has finally arrived!




After a looooong, cold and SNOWY spring here in Aspen it appears as if summer has FINALLY decided to make an appearance. The river is up, flowers are blooming and allergy season is in full swing! Here are some pics of getting the doggies out along the Roaring Fork River. How great does pregnant Kate look?!

Asleep on the job


Andy has been hanging with Ryder for his late evening feeding while I try to get to bed and get a little sleep before the night begins. I came out into the living room to get some water and guess what I found? Here are the two of them taking their jobs seriously...
