A week in the world of Ryker

We took a family walk this week, which was interesting. In the beginning I was pushing Ryker in the stroller and walking Shady. Adam was walking Rolo. Then I decided I didn't want to hold onto Shady incase she saw another dog (she's a great walker until that happens, then she goes crazy) so Adam then got to walk both dogs. Anyway, it was fun and we got back home just in time for it to start raining and then snowing later that night. Here is a picture of Ryker in his outfit he got to wear on our walk. Adam is holding him. I love this picture!


Ryker's doctor gave the go ahead to start bathing him every other day, and Ryker has been loving it! One day this week I was getting ready to start running with the intention of bathing Ryker afterward. Well he decided he didn't want to wait, so while he was lying down he spit up and then rolled his head in it. So yes, he got his bath right then. He hair was all goobery from the spit up and I was not going to wait. Here's a picture of that bath. I know you can't tell in this picture, but Ryker really does love his baths.


Another fun thing, this week Ryker got to spend a little time with his cousins. So my sister-in-laws and I decided to compared the cousins (they're Ryker's age) and he is definitely the littlest. Chloe in the middle was born the same day. Milo on the left is almost exactly 2 months older. Chloe is in the 90th percentile and Ryker is in the 10th. Maybe one day they'll both migrate more toward the middle, but for now Chloe could totally take him. :)



And I am finally getting Ryker to smile for the camera. Here's a cute one. He was happy to be with his cousin!



Ryker rolled over again this week and I kind of caught it on camera. Here's my attempt of that. The first picture is when he pushed himself up and the second is toward the end of him rolling over. You can see he's not too happy in that one. He doesn't like that I keep putting him on his tummy.
