...Three Months

Where does the time go?

It's really hard to believe that three months ago today our little "Booger/Boogie" Ryan was born. I wouldn't say that it feels like just the other day but it definitely does not feel like three months ago!

Our little man is getting so big and it is awesome to see his personality blossom more and more ever day. We posted the other day about how he laughed for the first time...I think that is goes without saying that we cherish all the time we get to spend with Ryan and look forward to all the milestones and fun that the future holds for him and us as a family. I will say too that it is a little hard to believe that all these "first" are our last. The past three years have been a whirlwind of kids, kids and more kids (literally)! After both Sydney and Dean were born I personally (Olivia speaking) was not ready to say I was done having kids...and in all honesty, as much as we were not planning on trying for another kid I think that Ryan is the perfect way to finish our family. Right now we truly love our life but are glad to be moving on to this next phase as a family of 5!

But with that being said [after going off on a small tangent]...going back to Ryan. He is such a sweet, lovable and  mild-mannered child. His smiles just make your heart melt. Listening to him talk and watching him just take in everything around him is just so amazing to witness. Children are truly a blessing from Jehovah. So on that note...this post is dedicated to Ryan and how much we love our little man and cant imagine our lives without him. WE LOVE YOU RYAN!

And before I forget here are his current stats...
Birth Weight: 9lbs. 7oz.         Current Weight: ~13lbs
  Birth Length: 20 inches           Current Length: ~24 inches

Miscellaneous Ryan Trivia...

  • Ryan's middle name is James, which is also Nick's middle name
  • Ryan started sleeping through the night at 2 months 1 week old!
  • He is determined to suck his thumb like his big brother Dean...he is close to getting it but not quite yet

And of course this post would not be complete without a few pictures...Enjoy!

This picture was taken just this morning. He is such a happy and easy going baby :)
Don't you just want to pinch those cheeks?!?!?!?
Never in a millions years did we think we would end up with a kid with blue eyes!

Have a good rest of your week. Much love, Nick and Olivia
