Weekend Fun

We started our fun weekend Thursday by going to the Zoo. We headed out Thursday morning and spent a few hours there. We went with Ryder's friend from school the two boys had a blast together. Range didn't love it lol but he doesn't like anything unless he's being held :/

One of his short cat naps at the Zoo.

Happy baby!

 Ryder and Ashton. I knew it was going to be warm but wasn't expecting it to be has warm as it was so we were a little hot lol

Train ride at the mall.

Ever since he sat in one of these in Richfield he has been obsessed and says he has a Rhino and it's in the store in Richfield haha

Mom and Range on the train.

 Us and the baby cub.

Friday Grandma Marcia came up to spend the weekend with us. When she got here we went to lunch at Sizzler and then headed to the Sportsmans Expo in Sandy. Ryder loves that place it's every little hunters dream ;) After we left there we went to the mall did a little shopping and rode the train while Grandma got her haircut.

Saturday we decided to drive around and look at houses. We went to Herriman to look for Places to rent and then headed into Day Break. He went to 2 houses that were for sale and then went through about 10 model homes. We were in heaven. We can't wait until we can buy a house we both love that area but aren't sure where we'll go once our condo sales. We will probably rent for a few years to see what areas we like best :) Ryder loved going through all the houses running up and down the stairs and saying who's bedroom was whos lol I think we're all ready for a bigger place :) After we looked at houses we drove to West Jordan and found Denise and Erics house they bought when they first got married. It was cool to see where they lived and how the neighborhood has changed by what I'm told lol We had dinner at Long Horn steakhouse and it was delicious their steaks were amazing haha

Sunday we went to breakfast and then Marcia headed home. We came home had naps and just hung out. We did a lot of walking and were wore out lol Thanks for coming and spending the weekend with us Grandma and thanks for inviting us to the zoo Jessica and Ashston! :)

Ryder Man

Ryder is growing up so fast and is getting so smart!! This boy amazes us daily. He's so into his letters and makes letters out of anything he can or spots them out everywhere. He knows all the letters and the sounds they make. He can almost spell his name he knows all the letters that go in it but can't quite get the order he says Rydre so pretty dang close. He is still in school and loving it and has made some friends that he talks about daily. He loves his little brother and is always kissing him and saying he loves him. He's a good helper and all in all a really good boy. Don't know what I would do without him he lets me sleep when Range is he will never bug me until I wake up he's so good. He loves the outdoors just like his dad. He loves shooting the guns and being out whenever we can get out. He's ALL boy! So thankful for this little boy can't wait to see what else he surprises us with in the future :) We love you Ryder man.

Funny things Ryder says

While we were in California we were going to dinner with my parents and Kylor. Ryder was in the backseat with my mom their conversation.
R: Grandma my dad is naughty
G:How come
R:Because he says bad words....

We all just busted up laughing it was soo funny..

While we were at Disneyland we got Ryder a gift card and told him he could buy whatever he wanted with his "money" He kept saying he wanted to buy Range something and then he says "dad I'll buy you something if you don't say bad words" haha his dad must say a lot of bad words ;) lol he cracks me up

The other day I picked Ryder up from school and we were talking and he says "mom my teacher called me little" I started laughing and asked him what he said to her "me not little me big" he absolutely HATES when people call him little. He was not a happy dude it was funny.

Ryder is obsessed with garbage and garbage trucks anywhere he sees a garbage can or something with garbage he points it out and gets super excited. If you ask him what he wants to be when he gets big he says drive a garbage truck! haha oh boy ;)

Ryder is still a picky eater and won't eat hardly anything. Ckn nuggets, turn dogs (corn dogs), cereal bars, granola bars, raisins, poptarts, chips, yogurt. He won't drink milk he usually will only drink water he loves the stuff lol he likes rootbeer and some juices. He loves to snack he's kind of like his mom when it comes to eating and it drives Clayton CRAZY! He gets very frustrated with what and how Ryder eats. I guess it's pay back to me for what my mom had to deal with :/ lol

 Scheels for moms birthday!

 Making muffins.. His new favorite.

 He's always quick to get to Range when he starts crying. And he thinks he always needs his Pluto he got him at Disneyland.

 Enjoying the warm day!

We love you Ryder man!
