Zerbert

Ryder laughing from Courtney's zerbert.

Meeting Megan

Over the weekend, Ryder met Megan Niles in Memphis. Megan enjoyed spending time with Ryder on his 5 month birthday. We hope Megan's meeting Ryder is one of many meetings between Ryder and our Purdue Alum friends and Pi Phi's.

Finally, video of Ryder in his Johnny Jumpster. Listen carefully and you will hear a little laugh.

Rub My Belly for Good Luck

I really look like a little Irishman. Happy St. Patrick's Day. Daddy is trying to figure out how to make one of my bottles with green milk???

2035 Tour de France Champion

Daddy recently went on a bike ride with Floyd Landis, the 2006 Tour de France champion, Bob "Bobke" Roll and Robbie Ventura. After the ride Floyd signed a Phonak cycling jersey for me (see signature on my belly). As you can see it really doesn't fit yet so we are going to frame it. Daddy was showing me pictures of tricycles today. I can't wait. Don't worry mommy, I will always wear my helmet.

Sunny and 75

We went on a long walk today since it was so nice outside. Mommy made me wear my beach hat so I wouldn't get sun burn.

Food

Bring on solid foods. It is going to be much easier now that my high chair has arrived. The Bumbo seat (previous photos) is fun but not the best chair for eating. Did you notice how big this thing is?

Belly shot

Ohhhhh, my belly is soo full.

Attitude

What are you looking at?

Quack! Quack!

Daddy must be nuts if he thinks this crazy, quacking duck is going to cheer me up. The only thing it did was get Wilson's attention. Now I have to fight the dog for this toy.

Rolling Over

Mommy has been working with me on rolling over. I can roll from my back to belly but I am not doing so well going rolling onto my back.

Date Night

Date night! Nana & Papa Leveque came to visit and allowed Mommy, Daddy and their friends to go to the Staxtacular charity event benefiting the Stax Music Academy. These photos confirm that I was a good boy.
