Happy Half Birthday, Ryan!

Ryan is a fun, easy-going baby. He laughs out loud at the funniest times: when I kiss his head, when I wash his hands, when I dunk the back of his head in the bath, when I pull his clothes over his head, when his brothers say "boo!"
If we put him on the floor he rolls all around the room. He wants to reach things, but he can't quite crawl, although he has gotten onto his knees a couple times. He is still too wobbly to sit on his own, but getting close. Ryan is all about teething toys right now, he seems really proud of himself when he successfully gets his toys in his mouth. We love you Ry-ry!

Ryan's First Christmas

Ryan enjoyed all the festivities on Christmas morning. Santa brought him "Squishy Turtle" and a little meerkat wearing reindeer antlers.

Ryan's First Santa Visit

Ryan was totally relaxed with Santa. Maybe because he had just awakened and his brothers were right with him. Santa came through this year... Legos and Playmobil!

Just Playing Around the House

Connor peeks out from under his sheet to let me take his picture.

It has been raining here, so the boys have been cooped up for a few days, as a result...some of the trio blocks creations have begun to closely resemble weapons. At least Connor still has a sweet smile. Sean looks down right menacing.

Sean wanted me to take a picture of this spaceship he made.

Christmastime

Sean kept wanting his picture taken near the tree.


Connor dressed for his evening Chorus Concert...he had fun singing schoolmates!

Ryan loves his Jump-a-roo!
