Church Time

This last Sunday was Ryder's first time getting to go to church. At his 4 month checkup we got permission that he can go now :) it was nice for both of us to be able to go to church together and go to all 3 hours :) He slept for the first 2 hours and then woke up in Relief Society but was happy the whole time. He is such a good boy he doesn't cry very often usually just when is he hungry. Also we are looking at being ready to be sealed mid to end of January :)

4 month checkup

Ryder had his 4 month check up today and it was so sad. He cried forever and the saddest cry I have ever heard from him it made me so sad. But the cry was cute too lol so I was kind of laughing I know mean mom I am lol.

*Length 23.5 inches ^50%

*Weight 12lbs 11oz ^50%

*Head Circ. 40cm 50%

So Ryder is doing awesome. He is around 95% on everything as being a preemie and above 65% as a normal 4 month old baby.. YAY that's awesome good job Ryder Man.

4 months old

Ryder man is 4 months old. So crazy I can't believe it. He is getting so big too fast. Clayt still keeps saying I wish he was bigger so I can play with him more lol it will come before he knows it. A few things about Ryder at 4 months old:

*Still loves the bath/kicks and smiles

*Smiles so much more and talks

*Loves his hands

*Rubs his eyes when he's tired

*Loves attention

*Roll from his belly to back

*Hold his head up

*Drools/blows spit bubbles

*Loves his tongue

Thanksgiving

This year we went to Blanding for Thanksgiving and had it with my family. We ate at Stormy's house with her family Misy and Ky and their kids and my parents. We ate and played games it was fun. Clayt and I ended up staying there until about 9:30 that night just talking with Stormy Quinn and the kids. Friday Clayt's mom and sisters went shopping for Black Friday so I just hung out at my mom's house and my Uncle Mike and his family came down and visited with us. Saturday I just kind of ran around everywhere because I didn't have much to do. That night we had dinner at Karen's house and played Catch Phrase it was a lot of fun even though I didn't feel very good. After we got done playing they decided to watch a movie but I just went back to Marcia's house and went to bed. For once we got out of Blanding at a decent time Sunday and we stopped in Moab and ate lunch with my cousin Kayla and her husband and baby. Her little boy is a month older then Ryder and he is so cute. It was a fun weekend thanks everyone.

Ambulance Ride

When Ryder was born we didn't have our camera with us so the hospital had a disposable one and took pictures for us. I just barely got it developed and here is what's on it. I can't believe my baby was so tiny he is huge now and so healthy. We love you Ryder your an awesome strong amazing baby boy.

Random Pictures

Here are a bunch of pictures of Ryder from the last week. Ryder is finally starting to roll. He will roll from his tummy to his back and it's so cute. We had a little accident with the rolling the other day though. I was at work and I always lay him on this big cushion the lady has and it's a little ways off the ground so anyways I went to go throw his diaper away and I was walking back to him and I look over and he's falling he looked like he was trying to catch him self his arms flying helplessly it was so sad. Well he landed on his head on the hard wood floor I felt so bad I ran and over and cuddled him we were both in tears the saddest thing ever I felt so bad. So that's the day I learned Ryder could roll over lol he got a little bump and bruise on his head is all and he was happy within a few minutes and just kept looking up at me and smiling it was so cute.
