HeyRyan.com Month 7
February 2003
I pretty much just open my mouth a bit, spit most of
it back out and then hang tight while mom spreads
it all over my face.  Good times.
"OK, seriously people, can someone clean me up
here?  Dad, this better not show up on the web.
Don't forget, I'll be taller than you in 2006.
Since I'm getting so big, I'm starting to like baby
food.  For some reason, I've taken to a steady diet
of veggies-based stuff. I'm my own man.
Actually, I pretty much fight off the stuff, but with a
nickname like "Big Boy", I have to feign interest.  
"Bring on the green grub, mom."
Around the middle of the month, I got to meet my
dad's family who had come in to town for Zoe's
birthday. Here I am with Cookie and Al.
And here I am sharing a few laughs with my Papa.  
It doesn't take much to get me to started but that
guy was really cracking me up.
Shortly after Papa arrived, he got on the ground to
get a good shot of me.  I was so interested in his
fancy camera that I decided to try to eat it.
Here is my first official crawl,
captured on film on February 15th.  
Sadly, I didn't get to eat the camera.
My sister's birthday was at the Long Beach
Aquarium.  I pretty much drank milk, cried and
slept.  That's my grandma Kwee.
On my 7 month birthday, I got to bust out and
attend my friend (OK, it was the first time I met him)
Cade's birthday.  We had a great time.
I'm closing out this month's festivities
with a nice little picture of me and
mom.  She's so awesome--she does
just about everything for me.  I'm sure
I'll come around to hanging with dad
(most likely when football season
starts up again) but he seems to have
his hands full with Zobo.  And that's
fine with me because I get mom just
about all to myself.  I love it.  Well,
come back again soon.

Big haps this month--I went from sitting up...to
rocking...to crawling and to standing up in about
a one-week span.  And I'm even starting to use
"words" like
Mmmammmma" (mom) and the
ever-popular "Baaaaabaaaaaa" (bottle).  Toss in
my stunning 100 percentile height statistic and
pretty much everyone in my family is digging my
action lately.  But enough about my physical
exploits...enjoy this month's edition of
HeyRyan.com..
