baby moonwalk:crafts:bday:rys latest

let me just start off by saying...how cute is this boy?i know your probably tired of seeing post about ryder but how can i not post about him... he is our world!!
we call this the baby moonwalk...haha he loves doing it daily. i laugh so hard every time he does it.
i used to do like 2-3 big crafts monthly before ryder was here and so needless to say i have neglected it. so i finally did a couple. this one was so simple and easy!
this one took me all weekend.
so every time we go to mine or kriss parents house they always break out the tote full of old pictures!! needless to say...i suck at developing pictures!! Sooo it is my mission to start!
my way of starting is to first update pictures all around our house... so this week i bought plain wood boards, few picture frames, paint, mod podge, and went to town! i developed our first family pics and im in love with my wall. i still have to get a few accents for it but i love it!!
august 5th was my sweet dads birthday! i kinda hate his birthdays now cause i dont want my parents to grow up any more! haha but it was his 61st birthday and i just adore this man. he is the best dad out there.. and i just love seeing the bond him and ry have already.
so since i have a huge family...and lots of nieces/nephews..it makes for alot of partys! haha
this time we decided to combine my dads,brother codys, and niece allys birthday into one MEXICAN themed party!
my mom bought these goofy glasses for the birthday peeps
this was our birthday present for my dad--diet coke cake


biggest nerd-brother cody! haha

my dads favorite present-we love you grandpa of all of the grandkids
ally may!
so ryder discovered mirrors to its fullest! haha he loves them 
gives himself kisses

here is a video of it
latest challenges:diaper changes! haha he just wants to go!!!!

my sister was in Idaho with her husbands family  for a whole month so these girls missed ryder!!
he is actually "talking" now haha he loves to babble all day now it is seriously the cutest

i just want him to stay small forever!
we love our diesel boy...always so tender with our ryder.
ryder interrupts his naps and he just lets him do his thing on him..also ryder will grab his face and diesel just gives him kisses.
