Tim's head = Ryan's toy

Ryan thinks Tim's head is just another toy he can play with, and he also cracks himself up during the process!

More weekend visitors...

This weekend Nana and Grandpa D'Agostino and Uncle Jim came to visit us. Ryan had a lot of fun with his grandparents and uncle. They brought him a singing Wally the Green Monster that he loves.....

Did someone say they wanted Dom Perignon?

Ryan thought if he climbed in Jim's suitcase, he could go back to Miami with him...

Happy Birthday Jim!

Today was Jim's birthday and he came to Baltimore for a visit to see Tim, Lauri and his Godson Ryan. Jim and Lauri went out to celebrate his birthday. Happy 28th Jim!

Happy Birthday Tim!!!

Wishing Tim a very Happy Birthday!!!!

8 months already?

Today was Ryan's 8 month birthday and we caught a few cute pictures and videos of him being his crazy monkey self. He is crawling everywhere these days and pulling himself up on everything!!!!

(Don't worry, he laughed right after he fell!)

Grandma and Papa come to town....

This weekend Grandma and Papa Doody came to spend time with us and Ryan. They had a fun day with Ryan on Friday while we went to work and Grandma and Ryan liked taking walks together. We all went out to dinner on Saturday night, went to the Farmer's Market, did some shopping in Fells Point, planted flower boxes, and Papa helped Tim install screens. It was a fun visit and Ryan was sad to see them leave but he will see them again in 2 weeks for the 4th of July Party. Ryan and his Papa

Sick day with Mommy

Today Ryan stayed home sick with Mommy. She dressed him in a shirt that perfectly described how he was acting!

Happy Father's Day!

Today was Tim's first Father's Day and we had a nice day hanging out together. We did a little shopping and then just relaxed at home. Ryan bought Tim a few books that they can read together, and made a calendar full of pictures of the two of them. But the best gift of all was that our little non cuddler let Tim cuddle with him this morning before his nap, he even fell asleep on Tim.

From crawling...

To standing! Ryan likes to now pull himself up on everything. Tonight after dinner, and before bath, he was playing in his crib and then decided he wanted to stand up...

No maybe about it....

He is DEFINETLEY crawling. Life as we know it has changed!

Better luck next year?

Today we had a little get together to watch Big Brown's attempt at the Triple Crown. And yet another year passes with no triple crown winner! Despite the heat outside (temps hit 100), we stayed cool inside drinking Belmont Breezes. We toasted to a possible triple crown before the race...

On the move...

Not sure if this is exactly crawling, but it's a start! (check out these videos!)

Pool Time

Today we visited cousins Emil, Tricia, Sam and Annie and went to their pool. Ryan seemed to like sitting in the kiddie pool, as long as he had a toy to eat. After the pool we hung out at their house and had a nice, relaxing day and a yummy dinner (thanks Emil!). It is so fun to see the kids interact more as they get older! Annie even let Ryan take a nap in her crib. He must have felt really comfortable there, and tired from the pool, because he napped for over 2 hours!
