Ryan's Two!!

Our little boy turned two March 19th. He's growing fast and always trying to keep up with his big brother.

Weight: 30.6lbs (75%)

Height: 36.5 inch (90%)

We had some family over last Sunday to help us celebrate.

Carson and Ryan checking out the cake.

Carson was so excited because Ryan got a baseball and glove just like he has. He was telling Ryan how much fun they would have playing baseball together.

Carson and Ryan playing with the new soccer ball and net. At this point Ryan would rather throw the ball in then kick it.

Visiting the Gruen's

This past weekend we went to spend a few days in Lees Summit MO to visit our good friends Jon and Nicole and their two boys, Ethan (6mos older than Carson) and Aidan(6mos older than Ryan).

The boys waiting in the car for Mom and Dad to get going.

Ryan turned two on the 19th...the day we left.

Nicole was nice enough to get him a Diego ice cream cake.

Ethan and Carson laughing and having a good time.

Mmm...yummy cake.

On Saturday we went to Crown Center. Which has lots of shops, places to eat and fun things for the kids to do. They even have an imaginary play area. The theme this time was Fairytale Characters. Like Jack and The Bean Stalk, Princess and The Pea, and The Three Little Pigs.

Aidan

The last stop of the day was the Crayola Store. Both Ethan and Carson got their face painted. Ethan got Spider Man and Carson got a Shark painted on his face. While there we spent lots of time coloring too.

Still playing inside

Here are some recent pictures of the boys.

Carson and Ryan stopped to pose for a picture while they were playing "school". They love playing with their backpacks. As you can see Carson can hardly wait for summer. He loves to come home and put shorts on. Carson lying on the floor watching some cartoons.

Ryan likes his broom. When ever he sees me cleaning he goes and gets it. He loves to help.

Snack time

The boys love to have monkey shakes (yogurt smoothy) for snack. Today they decided to share a chair while they drank them...how cute:)

Gotta love Ryan's expression after I told him to smile.
