California and Disneyland!

We just returned home from Newport Beach, California and 2 days at Disneyland.  We had so much fun with the Thurgood family.  Here are a few photos from the trip.


Hello eyelashes!!!


Christian, Ryder and I on "It's a Small World"

Getting ready to go on "Toy Story"

"Monsters Inc." one of Ryder's favorites!

On the balcony at Club 33 after our lunch.  Ryder slept through the entire lunch and is obviously feeling very good and ready to go!

Our baby boy definitely loves the camera!



Our Family!

Our crazy man!

Ryder is scooting and crawling all over the place!  We are in desperate need of child proofing our home now.

Rice cereal & peas anyone???


This was Ryder's first experience with rice cereal.  He HATED everything about it.  There was more rice cereal on Christian and I than Ryder actually ate.  It was a mess . . . but a cute mess!

Ryder is just over 6 months old, 15 lbs. 27 1/2 inches long.  Our baby boy is growing up already.  He now loves his rice cereal and can't get enough of it, even when I mix peas into it.  We are loving parent life and are just trying to keep up with our scooting around energetic Ryder!
