The Timothy Family: Ryan Cole

Oh that face. His lips, his big pure blue eyes, his long curly eye lashes, his strawberry blonde hair with the curl in the back....when did my baby get so big!! He is a tank.

He is 17 months old, going on to terrible twos. He will definitely let you know when he doesn't like something thats for sure. Its nearly impossible to get him to smile in a picture. But he likes to be silly. He loves to put things in his mouth and look at me all sly and mischievous like and laugh and run away. When you ask him a question he always answer uh huh in the cutest sweetest most innocent inflection ever. He picks up new words quickly and likes to say new words when you tell him to say something. My favorite new thing he says is 'tank you mama' when I give him something and 'aldone mama' and hands me his plate or food instead of throwing it all over the place. He has the cutest voice ever. Melts my heart.

He likes to be involved in whatever is happening but he also enjoys quietly playing his own thing by himself. He loves playing with Cade and trying to keep up with his big brother. They love chasing each other around the house. The best is when they are both cracking up at each other.

He loves cars, books, and playing in water. When he wants some thing...like food...he will come to me and say 'pum pum' for some some. Or 'teet teet' if he knows there is a treat in the house. :) Smart boy. He is a little love bug too. He LOVES baby Levi and is always so happy to see him 'baabyyy' and wants to give him hugs and kisses. We sure do love you little bug!! A lot has happened since you were born and you have grown up fast. Slow down my little Ry Ry!! Can I just freeze you at this stage forever??

We had Ryan's first birthday here at home (Nov. 25th 2014). We had a fun time eating cake, facetiming grandparents, and opening presents.
