where's ryker

Ryker is so much fun(most of the time).
He is so dang smart(I am his mom, I know, but he really is).
He says so many words now I can't even list them all.
From the second he wakes up til the second he falls asleep
he is begging me to put his shoes on so he can go outside.
A ball of any kind is still his toy of choice.

I can't believe he is 15 months old. I am always excited for him
to wake up in the morning so we can play. I love him so much!

I never knew how excited I could get for a load of dirt and
some rocks. My dad had helped us to start getting this yard
into shape. We still have a ways to go but have made pretty
good progress. We just moved the blocks and rocks around
that were already in the yard. So all we spent is just for the
dirt.



These two pictures were taken right before we bought it.

Then I took this one yesterday. Thanks DAD!!

MUD

We got a load of dirt the other day for our front yard. Ryker saw
Jesse sraying it down and wanted to do it too. He loved it. I was freaking out
at how muddy he was getting but then just decided to let him play.

corn on the cob

This is raw corn I was about to cook, when Ryker saw it
and just had to try it out. He liked it better than when
it was cooked.

He loves his shades



and Douglas the duck and lamby


They are his favorite

Where are my shoes?

Oh there they are

I came home to this the other night. So cute

Still need to do quite a bit, but the vision in my head is slowly starting to take shape.
