hello again

Hi Everyone,

Happy Holiday!

Yes, I know that I said mommy would update this every week, but she has been so busy. She started a new full-time job and has not had a lot of free time. Not to mention that I keep her and daddy very busy.

Speaking of being busy...I am now crawling all over the place. I am also standing up and have even taken one step. Now if I could just get that second foot to follow. Once I start walking, mommy and daddy are in big trouble - they think they chase me now!

I am talking a lot. No real words, but lots and lots of babble. I love to point things out to anyone that will look.

I am in day care now full-time, and I am having the best time. My teacher said that going from 3 days to 5 days has changed my personality. I was always well behaved and played nice, but now I have become a love bug to everyone, and I think I am the king of the room.

Mommy is now working for a company called Prescients in South Norwalk. She is doing the same thing she has always done (Marketing Account Management), but it is new field for her. So, there is a major learning curve. But, is he is getting the hang of it. She tells me that she loves it! And...they let her work from 8:30 - 3ish so that she can pick me up from day care. They also let her work from home sometimes, which is really nice.

Daddy has been very busy finishing up his required courses for his CPA licence. Unfortunatly, the classes were all in Jersey, so he has been away from home several days at a time every week. Thank god he is home now, I really missed him. So did mommy!

I can't wait to turn one next month! I am looking forward to turning my car seat around, and starting to drink MILK. I hear that it does my body good.

I have been eating everything now. I really like adult food. Some of my favorites include pizza, green beans, sweet potatoes, squash, spinach, chicken, and turkey. YUM!

Well, that should catch you all up. Hope to see you all in the new year.

Lots of love,

Ryan

what a smile! 

Why is the kitty backing up under the chair, all I want to do is play??? 

I loved playing with the cat 

here kitty, kitty 

This is the sweater and hat Nana Reva made me. I really don't want the hat on right now 

my first time eating out of the bowl myself 

i love daddy's nose. 

This toy is so cool...good thing Nana Reva gave me one for Hanukkah. 

What do you think of my girlfriend Emily? 

these are a few of my favorite words ...

Da, da, da, da, da!!! When I want my favorite parent, I know just what to say. These in fact were my first words. At times like these, Daddy looks amused, Mommy bemused. That's alright. I may not always tell her but, I like Mommy better when it's time to get my diaper changed, time to be fed, yada, yada, yada. HEY!!! That rhymes with dada, dada, dada!!!

Signed,

The happy l'il fella

I LOVE banana's! Good thing mommy has wet cloths to clean up this mess!

Look at me, I'm Tigger!
