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.

5 Months OLD!!!

I can't believe that my baby boy is already 5 months old. Time flies when they are actually here. He's getting so big and fun. He's laughing all of the time and he LOVES to play with toys. Let me correct that he LOVES to put toys in his mouth. He ate some banana baby food yesterday and loved it. I'm excited to start feeding him some more food to see if he likes it. I am so blessed to have such a good baby boy.

I also have a great husband that helped pick up the house and do some laundry today to surprise me. I loved it. Thanks Mitch you are the best husband ever!!!

BYU vs TCU and the day after

HARVEY look at ME!! I'm a CHEERLEADER!!!

Cute Cousin Hunter!! (There is a crazy girl in the background)

Ryder and Cousin Addison. It was a cold game but Addison didn't want to put her coat on all night. She did however use the hand warmers. She's so funny.

Ryder didn't like the loud noises at all. Poor boy

Our family picture at the game

Ryder was so heart broken about the lost of the BYU game that he passed out in his swing!! Poor little boy

Halloween!!!

Mitch kept trying to eat Ryder!!

Our Family Picture

Such a cute hotdog

Playing in the leaves

Ryder and Mitch went and took some pictures this weekend!! It was so much to see the pictures. I couldn't believe just how big he's getting.

Ryder was done getting his pictures taken

Idaho and 4 month check up

My boys up working on the snowmobiles. Ryder had to know what was going on outside. I think that he's going to love snowmobiling just as much as his Dad because Ryder was being really fussy but as SOON as they got one of the snowmobiles running Ryder was ready to fall asleep. Nothing like the sweet sounds of snowmobiles for a lullaby.

Ryder did not want to sleep the whole way up and back from Idaho. He had a rough weekend of not getting enought sleep. Poor boy only thinks that he can sleep good if he's at home. Once we got home that night he slept for 8 hours straight. He had never done that. I had forgot what it was like to sleep for 8 hours. It was HEAVEN!!

Ryder Loves to watch Mitch. I think that he's going to be a Daddy's boy.

Ryder was listening to Mitch's ipod. He's such a cute boy!!

Four Month Apointment

Ryder went to the doctors today and he's just a little guy. He weight 12 lbs. 13 oz. and is 24.5 inches. He's only in the 6th percentile for weight. But the doctor isn't worried because he's always been a little guy. The doctor just kept saying that he was a active baby. We were told that the right side of his head is getting a little flat so we need to start proping him up on his left side when he sleeps. I hope that he does well with that. We get to start giving him actual baby food when he turns 5 months old. I'm excited for that.

He got his shots and he was so brave. He only cried for a couple of minutes and I'm proud to report that I didn't cry, I just almost cried. Since he's been home all he's done is sleep. I hope that he doesn't wake up with sore legs.
