Eating Rice Cereal for the 1st time










Rustin's Birthday

July has been a busy month for us. We painted our kitchen and living room, and I finally feel like the house is almost completely decorated. It has taken quit awhile but it's been fun. We went to Farmington Days with Rustin family and got to ride a helicopter it was awesome. We flew over the mountains, Lagoon, and Farmington. Then that weekend we went to Bear Lake with my family for a few days. It was a lot of fun. We boated and played all day. Ryker did great being on the boat in his life jacket, he just slept most of the time. Rustin turned 24 on the 23rd of July. Then this last weekend we headed back up to Bear Lake with Rustin's family. We boated one day and played at the pool with the kids then went to Minnetonka Cave. This summer has been a blast but super busy. We start school again in a few weeks and life will get even crazier. Ryker is so much fun. We love being parents and watching him learn new things. He is starting to figure out how to grab things. He babbles a lot and we can make him giggle. He is sleeping better at night and getting on more of a nap schedule during the day. We started trying rice cereal and he hasn't quit figured out how to eat it yet but he's learning. We go to his 4 month appt on Friday.
