Family Dinner

This morning we took our weekly Sunday morning picture! Matt has resorted to the fact that we are always going to be late for church, ha! We are decked out in our holiday fashions and ready for Christmas. We've been going to the later service at church and keeping Ryan with us during the service. Usually I end up spending the whole time in the "cry room" but I don't mind. He eats in the middle of the service so it has worked better to just keep him. I've been so paranoid about the swine flu and the seasonal flu we haven't put him in the nursery much. Since Ryan is 6 months old I think it's time he can go. In January we will start going to the early service and use the nursery. We don't have to worry about a bottle and he will probably nap.

Tonight we went out to dinner with family. Matt's cousin Isaac will turn 20 on Christmas Eve so we went to the Spaghetti Factory to celebrate his birthday. I had never been there before and boy was it good. I had the lasagna and it was very yummy. Ryan sat in a high chair at a restaurant for the first time ever. I got him a floppy seat recently and it worked great in the high chair. It's basically a high chair cover with safety straps and little loops where you can clip on toys to keep him occupied. I think it was a great investment. You can also use it in a shopping cart.

Aunt Teresa loves holding Ryan. Everyone loved his Santa footies. Ryan loves making people smile and definitely loves attention. He did great sitting in his high chair and playing with his toys.

Isaac enjoyed holding Ryan too. Ryan kept jumping up and down in his lap. He didn't want to stop and be still. I think he thought Isaac was his jumperoo, ha! We go tomorrow morning for his 6 month check up. Looking forward to getting his stats and see how he is growing. Just not looking forward to the dreaded shots, yuck!
