Ryan turns 2!

WARNING...long and picture heavy post....
Last week Ryan turned 2! I'm a little behind on blogging due to the fact that we just moved and are in the midst of our busiest month (I'll save that for a different post). We had such a great time celebrating with Ryan. The morning of his birthhday he woke up and he had a present waiting for him. It was a new "beep-beep" of course!!!! Later that day his BFF Mia came over and brought him a new present and he was super excited to play with her. That evening we had Ryan's favorite for dinner....PIZZA and then we sang Happy Birthday to him which is his favorite. He got to enjoy his very own "cup-cake-cake". ! It was such a sweet day.

The following day we celebrated Ryan's birthday with our family and had a great time. Turned out to be a beautiful day and best of all, Ryan got to spend the day playing with his cousins!

Here's what Ryan has been up too...

*Ryan is repeating EVERYTHING at this point. Some words he says perfectly and then other words are his own version of it.

*He is 32.5 Inches Tall and Weighs 24.4 pounds. Dr. said he will be roughly 5'5-5'8!

*He loves playing with this trucks and cars the most.

*He loves playing outside...especially loves collecting rocks and going for rides on his new bike.

*He and Cooper (Booca) are THE best of friends.

*Ryan can count to 4 and will say A...B....C...

*He has started singing and it's hilarious!

*He still loves music and loves to dance.

*He loves his baseball bat and ball. He calls it "Beat-ball"

*He loves helping out and still loves using his tools to fix things or help daddy.

*Ryan is still hit and miss with his eating.

*Ryan has a love for older kids and is becoming VERY social. He loves giving kids hugs and saying Hi to everyone with a wave.

*He is becoming more obsessed with his blanket (Tee-Tee). He started saying "Tee-Tee where are you"...it's the cutest thing ever. Now he will add (Mama or Dada Where are you) as well.

*Ryan has a special love for book which makes me very happy. I hope he is a lifetime reader.

Ryan has come so far in his short little life and as parents, we couldn't be more proud of him. He's a friendly, sweet, loving, impatient, whiny, silly, sensitive, serious, smart, handsome, and funny little boy who we are truly blessed to call our son. I still can't believe that I've been blessed with such an awesome kid. I love who he is and what he has become and I look forward to watching him continue to thrive. Happy Birthday to our sweet little monkey! Can't believe you are 2!!!!
We just....
Love this....
Little boy...
