This handsome fella turned 18 months old on Christmas Day.
Oh, Ryan! Our sweet, cuddly babe!
Ryan is curious, mischievous and smart. He can climb on anything - couch, dining room chairs, bunk bed ladders, toilet seats… mostly all things he shouldn't. At the mention of "go" he's picking up his shoes and tugging on his coat. If left bundled for too long, however, he will start shedding those layers. Ryan is happy to go to bed or nap and is very willing to walk to his room for a new, clean diaper. {I wonder how potty training will go?}
It's fun to watch Ryan interact with Lucas and Hannah. Hannah can convince him to play along in just about any activity and Lucas is teaching him how to race cars and throw balls {in the house}. The dump truck Ryan got from Santa makes a lot of trips up and down our hallway.
He melts my heart!
His vocabulary is growing everyday, he's learning names with family member's pictures and his body parts. His favorite is his belly button. When I ask for a hug and kiss "bye" his open mouth kisses are slobbery and wonderful and he pats me on the back during a hug {swoon}. When he wakes up in the morning, or from nap, you can often find Hannah or Lucas (who has climbed into his crib) and reading books, reading or singing.
In short, this boy is perfect. :-)
