Once Again

Okay so we are back..I think for good this time. We got a new computer so now I can load pics and share Holdy G's life with you some more. A lot has changed in the past few months. Holden has grown like a weed physically and mentally!! He has been walking since about the November and we haven't been able to slow him down since. He jabbers constantly and is mimicing everything we say. He is beginning to repeat what sounds animals make and recognize what animals they are when we point. He loves to read and just can't get enough of it. Im beginning to wonder if we have a prodigy on our hands..Nobel Prize possibly??? He is so smart and yet so goofy at the same time..he amazes us many times in a day!! So enjoy the catch up blog marathon. Erin

Snow

In late November and early December we got a ton of snow. One night Daddy decided to give Holden a closer look at it. We found out that he was not quite ready for playing in the white stuff yet. He doesn't like when the snowflakes get on his eyelashes!

Voting Day 2008

Yes that is an I Voted sticker on Holden's head!!
This was definately an election that will be remembered forever in many more ways than one!!
Holden was absolutely excited to be part of this big event!!

bear cub..although not that impressed he sure looked cute!!

New Car Seat

I Love Boxes
I got a new car seat and I am pretty much way more

Working On It

Holden is one year old now and he is full of new adventures for us every hour! We have been taking a ton of pictures but the problem is our computer has some kind of bug and it takes forever to upload the pictures. As soon as this problem is fixed we will be sharing so many new adventures with all of you. Thank you for your patience!!

Love Erin, Andy & Holdy

Happy Birthday Baby Boy

One year ago today Baby Holden blessed our lives when he entered our world on January 26th, 2008 at 7:26pm. Since then our world has been turned upside down and inside out and every other which way. The past year has definately been a whirlwind of fun times and hard times but we have been rewarded with the wonderful love of Holden Gene Ryding!! Happy Birthday Little Boy!! We Love You So Much!!!
