Our sweet Ryder is now two months old and actually getting quite expressive. Both Stephen and I love sitting with him and getting him to smile and light up- his Daddy is particularly good at making him respond. :) Some more very fun months ahead seeing his expressions increase.
This last weekend our friends the Gardners came over for dinner and games- I thought Ryder looked awfully cute in this onesie and socks as we sat around the table. After we ate, we realized that all three boys had red mustaches from our drink and it made for a cute picture. Can see why red dye is so bad for us, eh? None the less, I still crave sugar free Cherry Limeade...
Coop loves wearing his camo baseball hat whenever Stephen wears his camo hat too. This picture struck me how big he is getting- he looks like a little boy not just a toddler somehow. He doesn't always look this grown up, thank goodness!
Coop occasionally gets in the bath with Ryder and coos over him the whole time. Needless to say, these baths are short lived so Ryder goes unscathed :)
We have the best next door neighbors- Cooper loves to go visit them at random, just bop in and out to say hello to them. Well, our neighbor is sick right now and Coop was so excited to make a card to accompany a meal we took him. It was neat to take him with me while we performed a little bit of service- I like thinking that he feels that little bit of joy inside that comes from little acts of kindness just like I do and that it will matter to him someday.
