Ryan is amazing! I was telling Matt last night how conflicted I am. Let me explain....I am so excited by all the new things he is doing and at the same time sad that he has grown. It goes by so fast you feel like you are missing something. Going back to work is also conflicted (don't worry Hallmark people, I am NOT going anywhere). I love my job and the people I work with. Leaving him for the day is not that bad (Mommy needs a break too) but leaving him for several days in a row is awful! I know those trips are far and between but it is hard. It is also a weird feeling. I was gone for three days, missed him sooooo much but at the same time, had a very successful business trip. Insane!
Let me catch you up on what our little man is doing. The other night he laughed out loud for the first time. I mean, really laughed. For a period of time. Usually, we get a chuckle. This was laughing. He made me laugh so hard, I cried. You want to know what he found so hysterical? Mommy was cleaning out the refrigerator. Yep, that is it. Now, you think, he must be laughing it up all the time. Of course not! Have not heard that silly laugh again. Kids!
He is starting to teeth, so he is drooling everywhere and trying as hard as he can to put both fists in his mouth. He loves to hold on to a blanket. We took him trick or treating in Davidson on Halloween. This was his first time in the big boy stroller. We wanted him to see everyhing. Of course, we got there right when it was time to eat. (We always get somewhere right when it is time to eat, no matter how hard we try not too) He screamed his head off until I fed him, then he spit up all over his costume! After that, it was great. He just stared at everyone in amazement until he fell asleep.
We have been taking him out a little more. He loves to look at people. Matt and I took him to Cracker Barrel the other week. His eyes were going everywhere. I tried to give him his bottle (because of course, it was time to eat). He drank it so slow while looking at everyone. Then, when people stopped to talk to him, he would grin real big and all the milk would fall out of his mouth!
Well, I have to get him up and out. I have a long day ahead of me. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
Until Next Time
Stacie
