Growing too fast

When we were on our way home from Ohio a few weeks ago, we stopped by to see Grandma and Grandpa Spihlmann. They live in Illinois right on the way from Grandma and Grandpa Williams. They surprised Ryker with this very cool rocking horse. He is a little small for it at the moment, but in a short time, I know he will LOVE it.

Here is Rykerman on the 4th of July, with his 4th gear on. He had a fun day.

Today Ryker wore his first "big boy" jammies. They are spider man and o so cute on him. I almost cried when Brian brought him down in them after his bath. He really is growing up too darn fast.

Ryker also started actual crawling in his 8th month. He is EVERYWHERE and in EVERYTHING, but, we love it. He also has started pulling himself and taking steps around things and behind his walk behind toy. As you can see he likes his (what we call "hand skates"), he pushes himself around on them all around the house, very quickly I might add. It is so funny to watch him on his "hand skates."

Every morning when he wakes up this is how we find him. We love the mornings. He is just happy as can be, how could this not make your start to a day a good one?

I started watching our niece Gabby 2 weeks ago. ( I know, how lucky am I every day?) Ryker is doing very well with her, he gets a little jealous, but overall he does great. They love to sit and smile and laugh at each other. It is very precious to watch.

Miss Gabby is growing like a little weed as well. She is now 3 months old and cute as ever. We love her very much and I am so lucky to be able to watch her grow up.
