Go, Ryan, GO!!!!

We got a good video last night of Ryan walking around.

It's amazing how quickly he has improved!!  I guess we really need to start baby-proofing the house and get some baby gates.....

Look who's WALKING!

Look at my sweet nine-and-a-half month old sweet boy!!!  He's taking unassisted steps!  He took many many more steps by himself earlier today, but of course when it's time to record them, he decides he doesn't want to showcase his skills anymore :)  I got two steps on video, and then the rest are while hanging on to Joe's hand.  I CAN'T BELIEVE HE'S WALKING!!!!

In other news, he's cut his top right tooth (that was #2) and his bottom left tooth (that was #3) and now he's working on his top left.  He pretty much looks like a jack-o-lantern, which is perfect for this time of year with Halloween coming up! :)  Anyway, his top left tooth is REALLY close to coming in.  I can't believe all these changes have happened just within the past few weeks!

One thing he hasn't changed is his sleep schedule.  Remember in the last post when I said that he finally slept through the night from start to finish TWO WHOLE TIMES?  Yep, still hasn't done it since :)  I think he likes the cuddle time that I give him in the middle of the night :)  He also has quite the case of separation anxiety, so these middle of the night cuddle/feeding sessions are extra special when he screams bloody murder when I put him back down in his crib and try to leave the room.  :)  Despite the sleeping habits, I LOVE his budding personality, his endless giggles and smiles, the way he gives kisses by attacking my face with an open mouth, the way he melts my heart by saying "mamamama".  I wouldn't change him for the world :)
