Just Another Lil Update

He's getting better at learning to hold his own bottle


He's still the same happy kid he's been since day one

And in the morning you never know which position or where in the crib you will find him

Playdate Time

Ryan and his buddy Nolan
(hard to believe they're 4 months apart since they're pretty much the same height)



I Dont Know About These Things...

He wasn't quite to sure what to think about the shoes


But you gotta admit he looks so cute and so much older in this outfit. And the shoes just made him look that much older.

Six Month Update



Ryan now weighs 17.6 lbs and is 29 3/4 inches long
That makes him now in the 97th percentile for growth and still in the 50th percentile for weight


And to help ease his pain from the shots he received today I gave him one of my favorite comfort foods...macaroni and cheese
He loved it. He ate the whole jar plus a jar of applesauce.

Ryan's First Masterpiece

This was his Mother's Day present to me that he did at the babysitter's house. I know it's kinda hard to read but trust me if you read it you'd get teary-eyed like I did.

Sleep Anyone??

Happy Half Year Birthday!!!!

It's true...Ryan is officially six months old today.
Where does the time go?? Seriously!


As for a much needed update... (sorry it's taken so long)
He's starting to get the hang of sitting up by himself. I give him a couple more weeks before he won't need any help at all.
He's discovered new foods that he loves...apples & blueberries, pears and mango.
He does really good rolling from his back to his tummy but still gets stuck trying to go from his tummy to his back.
He is now at a sitter for about 8 hours a day 5 days a week and seems to enjoy it. He loves the interaction with the other kids.
He has become a pro at moving whichever way he wants on his back. He's learned how to scoot and arch his back just enough to get him wherever he wants to go.
He has only fallen face first out of a chair once. (Is that a record??) Luckily, he landed on carpet and only screamed for a few minutes.
Most importantly, he is still as healthy, happy and content as he's always been!
