Backyard Fun

Ryan playing in the backyard on his new slide.

He Walks

 

Well so much has happened since I've updated the blog last. The biggest thing is that Ryan is walking and can say a few words. He loves to be read to and we're building quite the library for him. His favorite books right now are Marvin K. Mooney and

I'll be uploading some recent pictures to Picasa and posting the album here.

From Holidays

FOOOOOOOD

Hi everyone, sorry for the long time in between updates. We've been busier than usual lately with friends' weddings and other events. Ryan has been eating rice and oatmeal cereal for a few weeks now and today we gave him a sippy cup and his first taste of sweet potatoes. Check out the slide show!

Ryan's first cereal

Well since Ryan is 4 months old now we can start to introduce cereals and today he had his first taste of something other than boob milk!

Ryan's First Giants Game!

Mommy, Daddy, Uncle Will and Melissa spent the day in San Francisco and took Ryan to his first Giants game. We all had so much fun taking the train to the city. The weather was wonderful, about 70 degrees and what a great game! The Giants won against the Pirates, 11 to 6. Ten of those runs were in one inning! Ryan wore his Giants shirt, his Giants shorts and his orange Giants jacket. At the game Daddy bought him his first baseball cap and even though it was size "infant," it was still a bit too big. Mommy made Ryan a big sign that said "My 1st Giants Game" and several people in the ballpark told us to go see Lou Seal for a special present for Ryan. Lou Seal gave Ryan a picture of the ballpark and a signed certificate welcoming him to his first baseball game! Its in a special folder that will keep it safe. We were really hungry after the game so everyone had dinner at Bubba Gumps at Pier 39. After a long, fun-filled day, everyone fell asleep on the trainride home.

Water Babies

On September 5th, Ryan started Water Babies! Water Babies is a baby/parent swim session that gets babies used to being in water with songs and games and eventually teaches them how to swim. DACA (De Anza Cupertino Aquatics) takes babies as young as 3 months, so we enrolled Ryan a week after he hit the 3 month mark. The class meets once a week for 30 minutes, and so far he loves it! After Water Babies, we went to see Auntie Karen and Uncle Ed, and Ed gave Ryan his first gold medal!
