Mother's Day

Last month, Ryan and Daddy helped Mommy celebrate her first Mother's Day.  Here are some pictures from our trip to a local winery.  We had such a fun day in the sun!






So much fun- Ryan fell asleep!

Mommy's Birthday and Easter Weekend

A few weeks ago, Ryan helped Mommy celebrate her 30th birthday!  We had a great time visiting with friends in Richmond. 

Here's Ryan with his friend Jake:

Happy Birthday Mommy!



More fun with Daddy:


Ryan playing with James.  Doesn't James look so big next to Ryan?



The next morning Ryan enjoyed his first Easter basket:



 




Yum- these look good, are these for me?

Around the House

On April 17, Ryan turned 7 months old!  This month we tried to take more pictures of Ryan hanging out around the house. 

Here's Ryan practicing with a sippy cup.  He is still trying to figure it out, but has a lot of fun playing with it.





Now that Ryan can sit up on his own, we have upgraded to the duck bathtub.  It's hilarious.  Bathtime is so much more fun now :)







Here are Ryan and Daddy looking handsome in their red shirts.



Time for a bedtime story...







Ryan has started to notice Duke more these days, and thinks he's hilarious.  We're not sure the feeling is mutual yet.







Nothing like a lazy Saturday morning!




We thought this little straw hat was so funny!  We were glad we had the camera to capture the photo op.

Happy Half Birthday!

On St. Patrick's Day, Ryan celebrated his 6 month birthday.  We can't believe he's halfway through his first year already!  Ryan was very excited to finally start solid foods this month.  It was so hilarious- his face was classic after the first bite.  After a few weeks of practice now, he's a pro!  Here are some funny pictures from his first rice cereal experience:





During March Madness, Ryan decided to show his true colors- Duke Blue :)  Here he is getting ready to watch the ACC tournament.



Ryan is pretty into his toys these days.  Most of them go straight into his mouth!  Here he managed to get a toy in each hand plus one in his mouth.






Ryan's biggest accomplishment at six months is learning how to sit up on his own.  He still tips over now and then, but he's getting better at it each day. 




Here are some pictures of Ryan wearing his green for St. Patrick's Day:
