Ryan is very proud of his latest accomplishment -- being able to climb up onto the couch by himself. This usually also allows him to get his hands on the remote control. (He long ago lost interest in the "decoy" remote we gave him from our old VHS -- he knows which is the "real" one.)


"I got the remote!"


"I know I'm not supposed to have this one..."


"...but I'm too quick for Mommy and Daddy!"


"And too cute to say no to!" (Well, sometimes.)


He especially loves to hang out on the couch at night, to wind down from his busy days of watching out the back window for deer, following the pets around, playing with Rubbermaid containers, and finding new things to get into.




Passed out on Aunt Liz's couch after skipping his nap on Easter Sunday:


Unfortunately, refusing to nap is starting to become a regular occurrence around here. The usual result (crankiness and whining) is not this cute, so I had to take a picture this time!


Ryan will be 18 months old next week, which also means he has now been with us for almost half his life! (He was 9 months and 9 days old the day we met him.) It's been so much fun to watch him grow, although it seems to be happening too quickly!

Hey Karin and Rob!! Seems like the remote is every boy's favorite toy! Gotta love the picture of Ryan passed out on the couch. Hard to believe our boys are getting so big right in front of us! :(
