Has it really been a whole year? I cannot even begin to imagine my life without this precious little bundle of silliness and joy. Our home just would not be the same place without this little guy. He brings so much joy, laughter and fun to all of our lives. He is such a happy and mello baby. He loves to be at home surrounded by his family. He loves playing with his brother and sister (especially playing in River's room with all of his cars : ) He loves to play with his toys and crawl around the house exploring. He's pulling/standing up and has just started cruising, so no walking quite yet. I may not initially like having to wake up when I hear Ryder talking in the monitor, but when I see his big smile my exhaustion seems to fade and he just fills my heart with joy. Such a little blessing! Juggling 3 kids is definitely a lot of work, but it is totally, absolutely, 100 percent worth it. 
Ryder had his 1 year well baby doctor's appointment today and here are his stats:
weight: 20lbs 3 oz. 30th percentile
height: 31 in 85th percentile
head circumference: 18 in 37th percentile
His Tricks: shaking his head : ) clapping, kisses, waving, saying "hi", peekaboo (AKA "where's Ryder?!")
Favorite Foods: blueberries, blackberries, anything that we are eating, pizza crust : )
Favorite Toys: A little electronic bear that a friend gave him, maraca, cars, cars and more cars!
Favorite Place: Home (he is such a little homebody : ), he also enjoys being in the car
Favorite Activites: Bath Time, playing with Scout and River and exploring all over the house, banging any 2 things together : ) He loves to be with his family and LOVES to eat!

I'm still nursing him 3 times a day. He gets easily distracted most of the time, but he still really enjoys it - especially the morning feeding. Hopefully, he'll go to 2 times a day before too long... we'll see.
