Ryan Is 3!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN!!!

Ryan at 1 month...

...and yesterday, at 3 years old! (he is showing me three fingers, I guess I have to work on that one=)

I am still getting used to the fact that Lee is 2, now 11 days later Ryan is 3! I just can not believe we have a 4, 3, and 2 year old now, CRAZY! There is never a dull moment in this Koops' house!

If his cake looked familiar, well, it is, he was a wee bit jealous of the tiger cake I made for Lee, so he asked for a tiger cake too. We also gave him a stuffed tiger, he was beyond thrilled!


Ryan, you are getting to be such a big boy! You have such a love for life that it rubs off on everyone around you. You are so easy to make smile, melting my heart every time you do. The phrase you say a lot right now is, "mommy, I just want you all my days", and every time you say it makes me want to bundle up the moment and hold it with me forever. You love to play soccer with Jason, and you have taken on a new love of teaching Lee, you are such a great brother.
We love you Ry, and thank God every day for you, and pray he leads, guides, and protects you, all your days.
P.S. You decided this week to be done with diapers! What a great present to mommy and daddy for your birthday! We are so proud of you Ryan! Way to go!!!
