Ryan - cuter than ever



Ryan at 11 months old with BB (Birthday Bunny)



We haven't taken a picture on our camera in WEEKS, so this is Ryan's 11 month pic from Dave's cell phone!!  Our camera's battery charger is missing, and the battery is dead.  We hope the charger turns up before Ryan's 1st birthday. Wouldn't want to miss those pictures!!!

We do have VIDEO! Whoo-hoo! I will give a little background and then you can see Ryan for yourself.

Video #1:  Ryan had just had avocado for dinner, and I think black beans.  He was a mess!! So, we videoed it.

Video #2:  I LOVE this video. I took the camera out to get pics of Ryan cruising around and manuevering his push walker, and for some reason, he would stop, look at the camera, and just clap. It is SO adorable. He did it like 5 times. At the end of the 2 minute video, he crawls to me.  You can see that he crawls very well now.

Video #3:  Ryan is always getting into things.  His latest move - yesterday morning - has prompted us to take a trip to buy more baby gates this weekend.  Anyway, I had forgotten about my morning coffee (thankfully, cold) on a table, and he knocked it over.  It got everywhere - table, floor, wall, chair, and RYAN! I had to strip him down and then threw in a load of laundry, so his outfit didn't stain.  Here is the adorable aftermath with Captain Chaos.

I have another great video taken the day before yesterday - Ryan can be quite a chatterbox now.  In this two minute clip, I interview Ryan, and he chats.  He has really great intonation.  I tried uploading twice this evening...no luck. I will post it in a separate blog as soon as I can.

Good night everyone and Enjoy our Superguy - almost a 1-year old superguy in 3 weeks!
