Sleepy boy and First Haircut

This is how we found Ryder sleeping the other night. He's so crazy. He likes to sleep with his legs crossed. As you can tell he likes having his football in his bed. You never know when you need to play.

I couldn't get him to sit still after his haircut. He is SO handsome. His hair is very blond with it all cut off, it doesn't even look like he has hair.

Ryder didn't know what his Dada was doing to his head. He was SO confused.

Bath Time!!!

Ryder is become such a funny boy. I already know that he's going to tease me SO much. He's standing up on everything. We had to move his bed down already because he fell/climbed out of his crib.

We just love him so much!!!

Great Grandpa and Grandma Idaho. We were so excited that they came up to take some pictures with us. It was lots of fun having them up there.

Here we are with Great Grandpa and Grandma Idaho

4 Generations of snowmobilers. We are so excited to cary on the tradition of snowmobiling. Ryder loved his little ride. He fell asleep on out way out but when he woke up on our way back he was not a happy camper. Poor boy didn't know what was going on.

My two boys are so cute!! This is my favorite picture.

Pa better watch out for this little guy. He already has his eye on his truck. Ryder could have spent all day pretending to drive the truck. It's so funny how he's such a boy and just like his Dad. Ryder's favorite toys are balls. We have a baseball and a golf ball and a football and he could play with them ALL day. He's such a crazy boy!!

Here's me and Ryder hanging out in the back of the truck.

No this is not a pregnant man. If you look close Ryder is all zipped up in Mitch's coat ready to go on a ride.

I put Ryder down on the snow and he was so sad because it was hard for him to crawl and play without his hands getting too cold.

Ryder was so good on the drive up and back. He slept most of the way up to Idaho but he slept the whole way home from Idaho. He's such a good boy.

Ryder just like his Dad

Here is Ryder wearing his hat just like his Daddy. He's such a crazy boy. This last week he has started pushing himself forward and getting up on his hands and knees and rocking back and forth. I can't believe how fast he's growing. We're going in at the end of the month to see if he will get tubes. I really think that he will. I really hope that he will. Poor little guy has his Dads ears.

This video is from the day after Christmas.

Three wonderful years!!!

I can't believe that we have been married for 3 years. Time really does fly when you are having fun. I thought that I loved Mitch so much when we got married but it is nothing compared to how much I love him now. He's the best thing that has ever happened to me. He's my prince charming that I've always wanted. I know that he loves me so much. It's been fun to watch him turn into a Dad. He love his baby boy so much.

I can't wait to spend the rest of my life and all eternity with him.

I love you Mitch!!!!

Christmas!!!!

Ryder is making Grandma Connie so happy by cuddling with her.

Ryder is eating his yummy mail truck.

Ryder loves sleeping in his car seat with his coat on. He sleep all night in it. I didn't know what to do when I woke up at 3 in the morning.

Growing up we always got a picture taken with all of our presents and so I want to do that with Ryder.

All we should have gotten him was wrapping paper to eat. It would have made him so happy!!

Ryder is opening up his present from Great Grandma Holman. He loves his Buzz Lightyear toy. I must say that it's a lot of fun to play with.

Here he is again just eating his yummy wrapping paper.

He like to have his tongue hang out all of the time now. He has the Perkins Tongue. It makes me laugh to watch him.

Christmas was so much fun this year.

They're ready to go snowmobiling

Mitch and Ryder are so excited to go snowmobiling!!!

Ryder just loves it so much that he had to give the snowmobile a BIG hug

Ryder thinks that he's ready to drive it all by himself.

We went up to help decorate Great Grandma Holman's tree. It was lots of fun to take Ryder up and spend time with my grandma.

Ryder Alan is turning 6 months old tomorrow and I just can't believe it. He's such a good happy baby. I love him so much and I'm so blessed to have him. I can't imagine my life without him. He has his two bottom teeth that have cut threw. It was rough for a little bit because he had a ear infection from it but he was still a good boy. It is a very hard thing to try and get him to sit still for a minute. He always has to be moving. He drools just like his Dad and throws up just like his Mom which is NOT a good combination. The funnest thing now is that he's recognizing us more. I love going to pick him up from my moms and having him get excited to see me. I love it that when someone else is holding him and he sees me that he starts crying because he wants me. I love being a Mom, it's the BEST thing ever and I wouldn't trade it for all of the money in the world.
