Nine Months

Bath Time is So Much Fun!!!

I look forward to Ryder's Bath every day. It is always at the end of the day and for as long as I can remember he has loved taking a bath. Even that very first bath his first weekend at home we were surprised that he didn't make the slightest peep of noise. Now, bath time is that time of day when I can put him in the tub where he incessantly splashes and entertains himself while I finally am able to sit down on the comforts of a closed lid toilet and relax. We have also had the same routine since he was probably 2 months old. After dinner we head up to the bathroom, I lay him on the bath mat and start running the water. The sound of that water always seemed to sooth him during the "colic era". While the water warms, I go to his room and grab PJ's and a diaper. I always return to a slightly more at ease baby lying in the exact position I left him...until this week. This week I found him standing up at the tub anxiously looking in at the filling water, leading me to the conclusion that he really must love bath time as much as I do! I won't be leaving him in there anymore...I honestly wouldn't put it past that little guy to climb on in as soon as he is able to figure that part out! It was terribly cute though! This is the face I got when I asked him what on earth he was doing...

Our week in Pictures....

Home Again, Home Again Rig-Jig-Jig

We are home again! No matter how good vacation is, it always feels good to be back home and fall into my normal routine. Ryder appreciates it, too! I didn't think a little one could get thrown out of whack from being away from his things so easily, but he did. We went to Ft. Walton Beach, Florida for a week. I love, love, love the Beach! I learned my son sometimes loves the beach..LOL! It was fun anyway though, just spending time with my two boys!
