My Little Plumber

As I've mentioned before, when I am away or when JM has Ryder by himself, I'm not nervous a bit. He can do any and everything I can. The only question I have to ask, is what did you dress him in? Ryder went on a few outings while I was gone, two of which I would have tried to dress him up stylishly. One was his little cousins birthday party, the other was church. When JM told me what he picked out, I would've never put the two together, but hey... it matched. I was proud.

While I was gone, Ryder rolled several times across the floor -- front to back, back to front, front to back, back to front. This is a first! He hates being on his stomach and immediately rolls to his back as soon as I put him there. However, he has now become interested in turning over to his stomach. I was watching him in the video monitor last night rolling around in the crib and he kept getting stopped by the bumper pads. Why don't they make bigger baby beds? I dont' want his little face smushed up against the pads while he is sleeping.

I was glad Ryder got alot of grandparent time while I was gone. On Saturday JM took him to Vaughan for the day and on Sunday my dad came over and got to take Ryder on a stroll around the neighborhood. We are very lucky to have all of Ryder's grandparents close.

When I got back from vacation on Sunday, I saw the camera sitting out so I assumed JM snapped some pics while I was gone. I couldn't help but laugh ...

A relative of JM's makes precious clothes and I ordered this shirt from her. It is too cute. She makes precious things, so if you like them let me know and I can get you her information. Thanks Connie, for taking his picture for me!

love, love, love him

We have planned to go to Starkville this weekend for Super Bulldog Weekend, but now I'm wondering if I'm going to back out. JM is still going, but I'm worried about keeping Ryder out and about all day and wondering if he'll be able to nap. No Nap = MAD. I've got a couple of days to ponder it. I guess now that he's on formula that'll make his feeding easier. Plus, my mom will be there, and that's always nice. The more I think about it, I believe I've talked myself in to it. I need to show off my little bulldog anyways...
