Haircut Day

Ryan had his first haircut yesterday which was long overdue. He did great, loved being in the firetruck and watching Einstein.

BEFORE.....

BYE BYE CURLS.....

Beach Day

Last weekend Ryan and I headed to the beach for my friend Jennifer's niece, an 11 year old birthday party. He woke up with buckets of snot pouring out his nose and I knew it was going to be a bad day. He did ok considering but I can't wait to take him again when he is 100%.

Good Bye Allison

Allison's last day was Friday. She and her husband are moving to Vegas so he can become a cop. Good luck Scott. Allison started when Ryan was 4 months old and he absolutely adores her! She is the reason I have so many great pictures of Ryan, she captures all the moments we miss during the day. I know Ryan will miss her as will I. New nanny starts on the 22nd.He loves to put his arm straight up in the air and say ohhhhhhhhNew crawl for when he is outside.

Oh, what a sad face!
I think I can do it............

Ryan's new thing is to hold his sippy cup in his mouth and crawl around. It is so funny.

It is time for a haircut

Ryan's hair has gotten a little crazy. Ted has been begging me to let him cut his sides (hair way past his ear) but I keep saying wait until he is one. I think it is time to give in.

Almost but not there yet

One month to go until his First Birthday...I really can't believe it. His personality has really come out these last few weeks. He gests mad when we tell him no and take something away from him, he babbles all the time and shows pure joy over the little things.

We have decided not to have a birthday party, I hope I don't regret it. I really don't have the desire to plan a party right now which is so not like me. We are going to spend the day as a family, probably take him to Gymboree and have a homemade birthday cake. We will save the big parties for when he gets older.

Longest stand alone to date...
