Ryder: 2 years

Well, this post is long over due! Here is a little about Ryder at TWO years old (July 20th)

Ryder's Stats
Height: 34 inches 
Weight: 23 lbs
Sleeps through the night. Takes 1 nap/day usually 2-3 hours.

Personality:  This little guy is a fire-cracker! He definitely keeps us on our toes with his crazy antics. He is very full of life and energy and loves to be GOING and DOING.  He runs all over the place and doesn't sit still for much of anything!  He is daring, adventurous, sweet, and loving.  Such a perfect mix of crazy, fun!  Oh we love our Ryder!!
Talents/Abilities:  He really excels at anything physical.  And one of his greatest abilities is knowing how to get what he wants. He just has to smile at us and say 'please' in his adorable voice and we pretty much melt! When we do say no, however, he is so good at accepting that and moving on.  He gets over things quickly (whether emotionally or physically hurt).  He also loves to help and is such a sweet big brother to our baby Cal!
Has started talking and saying so many things. It is so fun to hear him communicate his wants/needs.
Favorites:  Pizza, ice cream, strawberries, watermelon, apples, peas, bread, balls, trucks, trains, & cars, bike, drawing with chalk, playing outside, Deigo (tv show), running, running, running, little guy figures with hats, dress up, binkie & blanket, daddy and brothers.







Dear Ryder,
You have grown so much in this past year and become such a sweet, wonderful little boy. I was so worried how you would do with becoming a big brother but you have completely surprised me! You are so sweet with our baby Cal and absolutely love to hold him.  You are my busy, busy boy! You love to run and jump and try anything and everything your brothers do.  You love wrestling with them and are such a tough little guy! On the other hand, you are still so sweet and kind and love to help out whenever I ask. You give the best hugs and snuggles and make us laugh constantly with the funny things you do and say!  You sure love your daddy and are so excited to see him when he gets home. You are great at making all of us feel like we are your favorite person!  
I sure love you, my sweet, wonderful Ryder. You make our family better by being a part of it! 
Love, 
Mommy
