Ryder . 15 Weeks

15 weeks old, and almost 17 pounds. . . 16 pounds, 13 ounces.
.

I have pulled out the 6-9 month clothing, although he still fits comfortably in 3-6 onesies.  The 3-6 month pants are at the "perfect" length right now, but he will quickly grow out of them.

A serious face.  Ryder was sitting on Patrick's lap when we were in the office reviewing house stuff.  He wasn't in the mood to smile - he was ready to eat, and go to bed!

Ryder wore his blue M&M shirt on Halloween.  Here he is outside in a pile of leaves.  He loved kicking the leaves - he loved the rustling noise it would make.

Another one of Ryder spending time in his “Bumbo” – he loves sitting up on his own.  And, it is great that we can have him on the counter with us when we are getting dinner ready.

Ryder LOVES to have his diaper changed and his clothes changed.  Last night, he was having a great time getting ready for bed! . . .

The house I talked about is officially going to be ours!  We are praying/hoping/keeping our fingers crossed that it will be finished NO LATER than 12/07, so that there is adequate time for walk throughs/repairs, closing, etc.  However, the Developer is saying it will be finished by 12/11.  So, while we know we have family we could stay with for a few days if necessary, it would be awful to have to move our stuff more than once.  With this said, keep us in your thoughts/prayers/wishes/whatever else that the house can get done a little early!

This week Patrick and I are finishing getting ready for the Craft Fair . . . come see us - Friday 10:00-8:00, Saturday 10:00-5:00!
.

And, I am back to work . . . full-time.  And, in case you were curious - at this time, I have been asked to be the Lead for 2 offices - I will be in each office 2 days/week.
