Too cute not to share...

We've Moved!

I know it's been a while since my last blog post, but I have a good excuse! ;) At the beginning of April we moved...talk about a lot of work! We're still working on unpacking everything (so please ignore any boxes you might see in the pictures!!). We are loving our new (to us) house and all the extra space!

Ryan collected all the balls he could find and made a path for us to walk down the hallway!

New loveseat and coffee table (delivered just yesterday...we've been 6 weeks or so with no couch!)

New couch (with Daddy and Ryan looking at his preschool scrapbook)

New dining room table and buffet. (Oh, and just noticed that we haven't taken the tag cards off the bottoms of the chairs!) This is our best room so far...nothing left to unpacked and it has been painted (thanks to my awesome sister who came and helped me!) It's a little hard to tell the color in this picture, but it is a light/sage green color- so pretty!

Aunt Jenny and Uncle Eric sent Ryan this adorable outfit!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the colors! And the shoes are the cutest- they have an alligator on the back! :)

Spring is here!

Yay for warm weather!!

Singing

The sound quality is poor as I taped this 'undercover' after I put him in bed...but I love that sweet voice!

My Sweet Boy

Just a few pictures of him before church the other morning...

New Decade, (finally) New Pictures

(Thanks to Aunt Debbie for the blog post title inspiration- hehe!)

(Lest you think my boy would be able to exercise such tremendous self-control around such sugary sweetness...not a chance!! ;) )

So proud of his finished product!

Christmas

Cool new rocket shirt from Aunt Jenny!

One of his favorites...Imaginext boat

Watching his new movie- The Polar Express in 3-D

We had a wonderful Christmas...it is amazing how much joy you get as a parent at seeing the wonderment and magic of Christmas through your child's eyes. I love my boy so much!! :)

Snow

Playing in the snow...

Trying to ride his bike...notice the build-up of snow on the training wheels which made riding quite difficult.

Problem-solving...Ryan pulled out a tool (toy) to try to remove the snow around the training wheels in order to keep riding.

By popular demand...all of us in one last elf video :)

Visit with Santa

This morning we went to visit Santa. Despite being off-the-wall excited before we got there, one look at Santa brought out the shy side of my sweet boy. Getting a good picture was like grasping for straws...this is by far the best one of the 5(!) they took. Despite the terrified look on his face, he claims it was so fun to see Santa and he can't wait to see him again next year. :)

Flahsback Friday (Therapy Edition)

5 Months old...look at that chub and baby cuteness!!



Daddy's idea... ;)



Once in a lifetime (for NM) massive snowstorm. We got him all bundled up and just plopped him in the middle of the snow. Needless to say there was no way he could escape.



Bunny ears take two...one year later.


My sister is always joking that she has a therapy fund for Ryan and anytime I make him do something cute or wear something cute that she has to deposit money for Ryan to use in the future. So I thought I'd go back and pull out some oldies but goodies that she definitely feels will be the topic of future therapy sessions.

And because no holiday is complete without elfing yourself (or your child as the case may be!!)...
