Easter






























I'm extremely late posting a blog about Easter!!! Ryder had such a great time. We took him to our neighborhood Easter egg hunt the weekend before Easter. He played on the swings and on the slides while waiting to hunt the eggs. He wasn't too sure about the Easter Bunny though!!! And then on Easter Sunday we went to church with Dinah, Joe, Tzeitel, Bryan, Daphne, Annie, and Jana. Afterwords we went to Ryan's parents' house and ate crawfish in the beautiful weather! :)
To this day, Ryder still insists on holding a plastic easter egg in his hand whenever he spots one laying around in his play area....

Ryder's 2nd Haircut


Only 10 months old and can you believe he has to get his hair cut AGAIN?!?!?!
Doesn't that picture look just like his daddy?










Here's a little video of it.






And this is from this morning while eating his breakfast. Gosh, I just love it when his hair gets cut....such a cutie!!!!

Initial Blog "Update On The Taylors"

Ryder keeps getting bigger and bigger. His chubby cheeks couldn't possibly be anymore pinchable!!! He's got 4 teeth now, along with his full head of hair of course, he's turning into a little boy!!! He had a bad month from an ear infection that just wouldn't go away. But we had a checkup for him yesterday and it's FINALLY gone!! Good thing, because they were about to send us to an ENT (and I'm sure tubes would have been necessary at that point).

He takes two steps now. I was practicing with him a couple nights ago, and when he'd fall down after his second step I'd say, "Oh darn!" and he would start dying laughing. It was the funniest thing in the world! You know that video of the baby who cracks up everytime his daddy rips a piece of paper he's holding? Well this was sort of like that. Ryan and I were in tears! So I just kept saying over and over "Oh darn! Oh darn! Oh darn!". It was the sweetest little laugh and him just leaning back and staring at me thinking I was the funniest person in the world!!!

We've got an easter egg hunt for him on April 4th. It's through our community. I volunteered to help hide the eggs before the event (there are over 12,000 eggs) so Ryder's going to have a slight advantage with me on his team! Haha....

Ryan is doing pretty well. Life in the auto industry (as well as many other industries of course) is really bad right now. But we are all keeping our heads up, awaiting for the day when people who buy Bentleys and Rolls-Royces find it a necessity to do it again. ;p But other than that he's doing great. He gets up every morning to go workout before his long dreaded day at the office, I'm really proud of him for taking a healthier step in his life.

I don't have much to say about me right now. I'm doing well also. Love being a wife and mother!!!

More to come....
