Last Friday Ryan had his 9-month checkup. I was glad he had this appointment because Ryan had been sick with the flu since late Wednesday night. The doctor said that Ryan should start feeling better before too long. His stats are: 27'5" long (25%), 14lb 4 oz. (<3%)for weight. I was a little dishearted since he only gained about a pound and a half since his 6-month checkup. Hopefully he'll be able to put on more weight now that he can keep his food down.

BIG BOY!!

Ryan is all over the place now. He has mastered crawling and loves to follow me around everywhere. He pulls up to the couch, coffee table and if I'm in the kitchen cleaning or cooking he likes to use my pants to pull himself up. It's so fun to see him grow and become more mobile.

Eric had the chance to present a poster down in Chicago at the Triological Society Meeting. It was great to take advantage of the opportunity and get out of town for a weekend.

This picture was taken a couple months ago but I finally got around to post it. It's one of my FAVORITES! This is how a typical evening looks...Ryan sitting on Dad's lap with the remote in hand. He is definitely a boy.
