We Exist

Yep! We're here! We exist and all is well. But naps are not long enough nor do I have enough energy in the evening to blog. I can't get my laundry and paying work done let alone time to post pics. I thought I had a few minutes, but I hear Wyatt saying, "Hi Mommy! Hi Daddy! Daddy Mommy, out!" No, Daddy is not home. It's just part of his "get me out of my room" chant.

I have all these blog posts that run through my head...they just never make it out of my thoughts.

This week Ryder turns 3 months, so I wanted to get these out. It's a special day.

Last Tuesday at 12 weeks. Monday, the 7th was his 3 month birthday.

Ryder is a very happy boy who loves to smile and talk to his family. He sleeps 8 1/2 - 9 hours which makes his mommy happy. He's a better nurser than his brother. That makes mommy happy too. His brother has only drawn blood once...a scratch on his cheek. In Walmart. Fun. While he is a happy kid, he still is very good at letting us know when he's not happy.

He started playing with toys last week. The lion on his carseat is fun. He's also doing a good job of holding his head up during tummy time. But he definitely does not like tummy time. His brother likes to make him do tummy time though. He has almost gotten rolled off the ottoman a couple times. Can you say heart attack for Mom and Dad?

Dressed up in his Sunday best. Just look at those sweet, lovable cheeks. LOVE them! He's almost the spitting image of his daddy at 3 months. His cheeks are just a bit chubbier.

With big brother.

As for Wyatt, he's in his toddler bed. And he is getting better at not getting out of bed. There has been some serious training though!! I'm very thankful for the baby gate we keep on his door during naptimes. And nighttimes. He'd be at our bed at 3:30 am if he could sometimes.

Okay, he's still saying "OUT!" So until next month....
