10 months!

Life is good. We are semi-settled into our house and are loving it (yes, there are still unpacked boxes and no decorations up). I am quite addicted to keeping everything so clean for 2 reasons; one Ryder is into everything and two I want to keep a new house looking new. I am constantly running the vacuum and steam moping. Kyle has been putting his garage together but still has a lot more he wants to do.

A VERY bad stomach bug hit our household earlier this week. It was not fun one bit. Definitely the sickest I've ever been. We are all glad it is gone.

Ryder is into the I only want those who I know to hold me phase. He's not done well in the church nursery but we are going to stick with it because he's got to learn to be away from us. Ryder is in love with his babysitter!!! She comes to watch Ryder while we are at work and he adores her (she loves him too). He has gotten a lot better at balancing and standing on his own. He takes steps towards us with much more confidence. I can't believe how much he's growing up. Such a snuggle bug.

Here's some pictures of our little man.
He's crawling on his hands and knees now. It makes me giggle to see him boogie.
You can see his 2 little teeth.
Spoons and standing. 2 of his favorite things.
He loves flipping through his books.

He finds great joy in simple things!
