The Gatorade Mistake

We went to Cabela's this week. At the checkout Ryder said that he was thirsty and pointed at the Gatorade in the cooler. So of course, we bought him a gatorade.

We got to the truck and strapped Ryder in his car seat.

I opened the gatorade and handed it to J. I told him to take a few big drinks and then give it to Ryder. He usually does pretty well drinking out of bottles on his own.

By the time we got home....We had a gatorade MESS. Ryder was soaked....even his hair...had to take a few pics of my little booger! ! ! His skin was dyed red from the gatorade.

Christmas Memories

We had a wonderful Christmas! ! ! Ryder had so much fun opening all his presents and getting lots of fun toys! ! ! He had 4 rounds of Christmas...our family Christmas, Christmas with Nana and Papa, Christmas with Grandma and Pappy, and then more Christmas with Great Grandma and Great Great Grandpa. He is a lucky and very loved little boy :)

Sunday, Part 2

Sunday night we met up with family to check out the train park. They have it all lit up for Christmas. When we got there the line for tickets was pretty long. As we waited in line for tickets we watched the train line grow and grow. We ended up waiting in the train line for about an hour. That was not too bad, we were thinking we would be waiting for about 2 hours. Jason was kind of picking on me saying that we were going to wait in that long line for a 2 minute train ride. It was worth the wait though, Ryder loved it! He had tons of fun hanging out with his cousins, those kids are so funny to watch! It was a great time!

Ryder and Mommy on the carousel. It was pretty funny, Ryder does not like the horses at all. I asked him if he wanted to ride on a horse and he said "No, I ride the chair"
He is too funny! ! ! We rode 3 times and each time he wanted to 'ride the chair'

Sunday, Part 1

We had a fun time on Sunday. Addi, who is one of Ryder's best buddies, had her 2nd birthday party. The party location couldn't have been any cuter. It was at a little place called "Imagination Avenue" They had it all. There are all kinds of play rooms complete with costumes and all. There was a bakery, Dr office, tool room, kitchen, grocery store, police man and fireman room (Ryder's favorite!), dress up room and more I just can't remember it all. Ryder had tons of fun dressing up and playing in the cars. He also loved the big train table that was set up. He ran around in there like a little crazy man for 2 hours!

Train Time. Ryder was in train heaven with this set up!

Police Man Ryder! ! ! Ryder put this on and said "I'm goin to work" He helps Daddy get ready for work so he knew what he was talking about.
