The Boy Can Walk!

Well, Ryan has decided that it is time to walk! He has made a lot of progress in the past week and I have made several attempts to catch them on video. I may have to put together all the clips, but seriously it is over 10 times of trying. Every time I got out the camera he either got so close to me and wouldn't walk away that I couldn't get him, or he became interested in something on the floor or just thought I was being funny so he would just sit and laugh. Finally I decided that I needed reinforcements and made Matt hold the camera so that I get Ryan far enough away to actually capture his mad skills.




You can enjoy this video here!



To mark this auspicious occasion, I bought Ryan some new shoes and sandals. Madi says that I mark every occasion with a shoe purchase, but lets be honest, girls have the market cornered on cute clothes. Shoes is all boys have. So check out these awesome ones. They are still soft sole like Robeez and Pedipeds but they have rubber traction at the toe and heel so they are a little more substantial for outside use. Also, I believe they are completely adorable. These people also make some of the cuter girl shoes I have ever seen, for those of you in the market.





We haven't been up to anything to exciting as of late. We have been spending time at the pool to keep away from the heat. We also enjoyed going to the zoo with Lindy and Anya. It was really fun and Lindy had my expectations set fairly low so I really enjoyed myself! I will post some pictures from that later, they are still on my camera.

Lisa, you have a walker on your hands! Get ready for trouble. Ryan will then learn how to run. I love little boy shoes, I keep buying the wrong sizes, so when Jake is size 7-8 he will be set!

Ryan is so cute when he walks. That is so fun that he is getting it down. Parker is just starting walk more and more these past couple of days. I don't know if I'm ready for that yet!

Lisa, We have watched Ryan walk over and over. He is so cute, but it is also fun to hear you and Matt's voices coaxing him. So cute.

Lisa -
#1. They're song is awesome, you will love it.
#2. Yea, they look kind of weird. They're pants are way too tight, and they constantly wear scarves. Its weird, but I like it for some reason.
#3. The only reason they won choice male hottie is because only 13 year olds vote for the TCA. I mean, did you vote? No, but I bet Colette did (a hip 14 year old, who loves JB).
#4. Ill let you know how I like Camp Rock.

It's crazy how fast time flies. I still feel like you just barely had a baby. The shoes are adorable. Sorry, Matt might not like me calling them that. The shoes are so cool! -Steph
