Baby Language

Posted on Wednesday, November 2, 2011 | 0 comments
My friend Ashley Nau introduced me to Dunstan baby language, and I truly believe it works!  If you have a new baby (or are about to have one) search for youtube videos on Dunstan Baby Language.  She was on Oprah several years ago and that is the episode I watched online.  Ryder definitely says "Neh" (I'm hungry)and "Eh" (I need to burp!) all the time.

Ryder had a great Halloween!  He was a baby Vampire...okay he just wore the outfit, but he did enjoy greeting Trick-or-treaters with candy!

12 week checkup

Ryder went to his new Pediatrician today (the last one and I did not see eye to eye on vaccinations...) and she is great!  Ryder got all measured up and here are the results:
He now weighs 14.5 lbs is and is 24.5inches long.  For his age this makes him 75th percentile for his height and 95th percentile for his weight (his head is 50th).  In other words, Ryder is a BIG BOY!  For some perspective--I was 18lbs at one year old!  Obviously I am not the biggest person in the world, but this makes it even funnier now that I am toting around this chubby bunny.  Ryder is a very happy boy!  He really enjoys standing up with his arms against my chest and will just talk (loudly!) in his baby language and stomp his feet.  He also likes to recline on my thighs while they are bent and just stare at my face and smile while kicking his legs into my stomach and flailing his arms around.
I went to Chicago this weekend for my good friend Becky's wedding and Ryder had a great time with my Mom and sister-in-law Sabrina.  They did wonderful following my few rules: Hold him whenever he wants (all the time), watch him breathe when he sleeps, and when in doubt give big boy his bottle!
It was a great weekend with my good friends from high school but I am very happy to be back snuggling my little butterball.

Who will Ryder look like?

Posted on Sunday, September 11, 2011 | 0 comments
For almost 7 weeks now we have been lovingly staring at Ryder's face and trying to decide who he will look like when he is older.  I hate to think of him growing up (tear) but, sadly, I know it's inevitable.  These are our picks for who Ryder is going to look like...What do you think?
Jesse thinks: Taylor Lautner
My guess is Justin Beiber:


My Mom thinks John Gidding:
Only time will tell....  :)
