What Ryan is Up To

It's been a while so I wanted to update you with what Ryan has been doing. He can say more words..."outside, apple (for all fruit), shoe, (a shooooooo) to name a few. He LOVES being outside. When we get home from school, he asks for "do" (juice) and then goes to the door and says "side" to go outside and play with his ball and toy lawnmower.

Ryan also LOVES Charlie. He loves his fluffy tail, putting his head on him, and getting him to chase him around the house.

Ryan has a best friend at school named Christian, and a boy named Jackson says Ryan's name all of the time at home, and calls me "Ryan's mom."

Nights have been an area that could use improvement! Ryan gets up pretty darn early, and usually still wakes up during the night at some point. But we think there is a big tooth coming in, so hopefully there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

We're looking forward to a great Halloween!

The Pumpkin Patch

Today was our second annual trip to the pumpkin patch. This time, Ryan walked a long way from the hayride to the pumpkins, so by the time we gt to the big pumpkins, he was too worn out for a good picture! But, we like our action shots (courtesy of Eric). Ryan liked the little pumpkins...he tried to eat them.

Since Ryan loves to lift large objects, he was thrilled to try to lift a pumpkin. It didn't work.
Ryan enjoyed pointing out the hayride..."Cah..." (Car)

Random Shots

Ryan and Henry enjoyed their time together at the "Kids Table" at Rosh Hashanah dinner.
After dinner, Henry showed Ryan his favorite Sesame Street video.
Eric practices what it would be like to have 2 kids with Darren and Ryan!
Ryan and Charlie have become good friends. Ryan likes to bring Charlie his bone to chew, or to feed him his snacks!

Nanna Comes!!!

Nanna missed Ryan so much that she came for a visit! It's been a couple of weeks since she came, but I have been so busy with my new job that it's been hard to catch up! We did a lot that weekend, but nothing compared to the purchase of Ryan's newest "Ballooooooon." Ryan also got a chance to meet Brutus the Buckeye during an Ohio State game...
