Splashing Good Time

Woodbridge - Mommy got Ryan a really cool water table for Ryan to splash in this weekend. When he first went outside he wanted nothing to do with it. This wasn't surprising because he hates baths and screams if you put him in water. After Mommy showed him how fun it was to splash the water, he had a great time splashing and pouring the water. Mommy also got boats to play with as well. This will probably be a favorite summer toy.

How Does He Sleep Like That?

Woodbridge - Ryan is a very active sleeper. All night long he is from one end of the crib to the other. This is what Mommy found when she went to check on him after he fell asleep.

Flashback Photo of the Week

A year ago we often had a very difficult time getting Ryan to take a nap anywhere. Bedtime was never really a problem, but naptime was extremely difficult (and continued to be that way until he was about a year old). For a short period of time, one thing that helped Ryan get to sleep was a blanket. He would cuddle with it around his face and eventually dose up. This was one of those rare times.

The Craft Fair

Woodbridge - Over the weekend Ryan went to the Craft Festival with Mommy, Daddy, Grammy and Grumpy. We got soem lemonade, saw a bunch of cool things and even got some cool stuff to bring home. However, the coolest part of the whole thing was riding the shuttle bus.

Too Cool for Words

New Pap Pap

Woodbridge - This weekend Ryan got a new pap pap (backpack) to take on his upcoming vacation. He can keep all sorts of fun things in there and Mommy and Daddy can be sure to keep him close by. What is really cool is that it has a monkey that comes out to snuggle with. Ryan was very excited to wear it and run around the house.

Paper Towels

Why do you need toys when you have a whole pack of paper towels? You can push them, climb on them, ride them and flip it over.

Driving the Grocery Cart

Woodbridge - Now that Ryan is getting to be a big boy he has graduated from the top of the grocery cart to the cart car. Ryan steers the car through the store, honking the horn and saying hi to all the people he passes. It is fun to drive while Mommy and Daddy get the goods.

Random Pictures to Bring a Smile

These are some random new pictures that makes Mommy smile.

The Climber

Woodbridge - Ryan has discovered climbing. He will climb anything he can get up on. Over the weekend he discovered he can climb on the coffee table and stand. He is very proud of himself. Unfortunately there has already been a casualty of climbing. When he climbed on a chair in the bedroom, he fell off face first into the air purifier. He looked like he had gone a couple rounds in the boxing ring. As with nearly every injury Ryan has had, he cried for half a minute, stuck his thumb in his mouth and moved on.
