easter 2010

since most of my family was in town for ryan’s first birthday, we continued with the family celebrations and had easter at our home on sunday. the weather was beautiful and it was so fun having everyone here.

don’t you just love the look on ryan’s face...i think he’s “over”
all the picture taking.

ryan LOVES this pig dressed like a bunny that he got for easter.
it sings and dances and he can press the button himself (over and over!)
to make it play!

“give me more puffs...NOW!!!”

more videos...

here are a couple of videos from april...he’s one funny
little boy.


this is ryan talking to himself in the mirror. i’m still not sure
if he realizes it’s himself or another baby.


ryan loves his doorway bouncer...sadly, i think we have to retire it
due to weight restrictions...boo...

our baby boy is ONE!!

happy first birthday, son...we love you SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much!

and ryan chose that very special occasion (april 3, 2010) to FINALLY start to (really) crawl. up to that point, he had been scooting and pushing himself on his tummy, but not a real crawl. it was very exciting that so many family members were on hand to witness this milestone!

being silly...toasting the ”kitchen help!”

thanks ma and mom...you two are the BEST!

almost ALL the girls...

the big moment is finally here...CUPCAKE time!

ryan liked it, but didn’t necessarily want to touch/hold it himself.

good party!

ryan loves his cousin davey

march

it’s hard to believe ryan is 11 months old this month! there were a few firsts this month for the little man including... meeting my dad’s brother and his wife (uncle sam and aunt betty) for the first time; feeding himself! eating cantaloupe; falling off our bed...ouch! luckily no damage was done. here are some pics and videos from the month.

i can’t resist the ”sleeping” pix!
