2 months

Ryder Mae was 14lbs 13oz and 23.5 inches long at her two month check up. She is the happiest baby and gives smiles as often as you'd like. She has started "talking" to me today and I caught a little on video. Never mind the hiccups in the video, she has been plagued with them since birth.



Yeah, I know, so exciting! We'll give her a little while until we expect the real entertainment like her brother produces. For now we'll enjoy her baby babble.

First Boat Trip

For those of you who don't already know this, we lucked into the BEST neighbors. They are our age, have a 3 year old, invite us over for dinner often, came with a fantastic group of friends (who have graciously adopted us), threw a surprise baby shower for Ryder and have not one, but two boats. Let's just say we are loving our neighbors.



They took all of out to Beaver Lake in June and it was beautiful.





It was both Rowan and Ryder's first time on a boat and they loved it. Ryder pretty much slept the entire time on the seat of the boat.



Rowan was his usual self and wanted to "drive" the boat.



He also experimented with a life vest for the first time. He jumped off of the boat a few times and learned the hard way that you have to close your mouth and hold your breath when you jump.
