Family Reunion, Part V - Birthdays

Our last night in Silver City we had a birthday party for Ryan and Benjamin. We actually had Ryan's 1st birthday at our Kland family reunion 2 years ago. It is hard to believe that Ryan is 3 and that Benjamin is already 1!! It's always fun to have birthday parties with family.

Ryan is still very little, weighing a whopping 25 lbs! He is so cute with his big brown eyes and long eye lashes. He loves to play with his big brothers and sister. He likes to play outside, ride around on the scooter, play games, play computer games and read books with mommy. He was such a breeze to potty train I'm still rejoicing about it! He doesn't eat very much and is pretty picky. He is a very funny kid that keeps us laughing.


Benjamin weighs in at 18 1/2 lbs. so he'll be facing backwards in the car seat still for a while. He started walking around 10 1/2 months and is now a pro. It's funny to see this little thing be an independent person who can get around anywhere he wants to go. He likes to play outside when his mommy will let him. He is a good little eater and will eat a lot of things we eat, no more baby food for him because he likes to feed himself. He is a sweet, funny, beautiful little boy and we love him so much. It's sad to see my baby grow up so fast.
