Helping Cook Dinner

Ryder helped us cook dinner the other night. We made Chicken Enchilidas and Tostadas. They were yummy! He is a really good helper in the kitchen!

OLE!

Ryder and mommy went to Billie's birthday party at Mi Pueblo on Saturday night. Ryder thought that it was fun to play with Billie's birthday hat! He was really funny!

Sitting & Watching Basketball with Daddy

Ryder and Daddy were sitting on the couch tonight watching the Maverick's game. I decided that they were too cute to not take pictures!

Universal with Aunt Mary & Jessie

Ryder spent the day with Aunt Mary & Jessie at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure! He loved every minute of it......he sipped blue slurpee with Jessie, got to slide down huge yellow slides, saw the Grinch, Dr. Seuss, and Barney, rode One fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish, and did many other fun things! He had a blast with the as always, but wore them out. He is a very busy little man you know!

Ryder loves spending time with Aunt Mary & Jessie, they take him lots of fun places. We all joke that he has nothing to look forward too since he gets to do everything that most little kids dream about doing!

We are all doing really well! We have had a rocky road lately, but will get through it!
