Taking Ryker to the Zoo

Last Friday I took Ryker to the Zoo. My Mom, Dad, Sister-in-law Alisha and her two kids(Trevor and Luke), and my cousin Trisha and her little boy Brady all came to the Zoo with Ryker and Me. I thought that Ryker would enjoy the Zoo a little more than he did, maybe he's still a little young. We all had fun though.

Trevor was scared to death of this elephant. he wouldn't even go near it, it was pretty funny.

Here's the Boys! Brady (left), Luke (middle left), Trevor(middle right),and Ryker (right).
My Mom and Dad, Steve and Carol. What a cute old couple!!!!)
Waiting in line for the train... Being the great mom I am I had forgotten Rykers jacket and blanket, so trevor was nice enough to let Ryker wear his jacket.
Here we are on the train, the ride was a lot shorter than I remembered. The Zoo has changed a ton since I have been there. I guess when you are young things just seem a whole lot different.

Leaving Ryker Over Night

This weekend is Rory's spring break and we are going to go to St. George. We have decided to leave Ryker with our parents. I think I am going to have a really hard time with it. I have never left him with anyone over night yet. so this will be the first time and it's kind of sad, even though I know we'll have a good time.
This week Ryker has been learning quite a bit. I gave him a sippy cup for the first time yestarday, and he did great. He has also learned to sit up by himself after tipping over. he is still working on crawling but so far he only goes backwards. It is amazing how fast they grow up, it is hard to believe he is 9 months already.
