AVOCADO!!

To love the avocado, you must become one with the avocado... As if you can't already tell, Ryder LOVES avocados. He's also very much a clown, he loves to make people laugh. He's a clip of his silly breathing noises he makes at dinner.

Ryder has been changing literally every day. He's now army crawling and has attempted his first steps. Not quite considered walking though. He gets into everything. He loves chasing down the cats and dogs in his walker. He gets along best with Dakota, as she is the only one that lets him get close enough to pet. She loves Ryder and is so patient with him even when he's pulling her whiskers. Ryder is not a fan of being fed anymore because he's realized he can feed himself finger foods and prefers that. His favorites are avocados, bananas, carrots and yogurt drops. He's finally on a good bedtime routine and has moved into his crib full time. He's only waking up once a night; actually last night he went down at 9pm and didn't wake up until 6:30am, ate and then went to sleep until 8:45!! WOOHOO for me! He loves going to The Little Gym and has become quite the social butterfly, I'm telling ya he loves the Independence he's found in crawling.

In other news, Kyle and I got the official approval on our home loan and will be closing on the new house in just 2 1/2 weeks!! SOOOOO very excited. We have a lot to do and our weeks/weekends are pretty full. But of course, we will make it work.
