There is an obnoxious amount of cuteness that we're going to share here. So delete this email if you can't handle the sweetness.
Language skills have kicked into high gear. He's saying "I love you" now and starting to crack jokes. His favorite is to say "Please Dad" when I ask him "What do you say?" after he requests things. Today he said my name was "Ryan." He's stringing together Yoda-like sentences too. Other developments: His affectionate side is really coming out. He has chores he likes to help with and is so stinking smart that he recognizes places we're driving to, even in the dark!
Our most difficult challenge right now is trying to put steroid drops into his eyes. He has tear duct issues, we we're trying this treatment to avoid surgery. Only one more week until we end this course (Just what the Coach needs...a son on Steroids!) The great news is that for all the hassle, we now have a tear-free more comfortable boy. So it's worth it.
I'll spare you any more prose and let those big brown eyes do the rest. Hope everyone is having a great week wherever you are! About to go up and put in drops as Ryan sleeps...as we call it...the "Drop Fairy."
Love Court, Max & Ryan

Love Court, Max & Ryan
This is the same bench Max and I had our photo taken on during our wedding. He was admiring Nami's Koi.
We busted out my Hot Wheels collection during Max's birthday. He loves them!
Nami and Papa brought Ryan this new train on their adventures in North Carolina. He loves saying "Choo Choo" as he drags it everywhere.
Very impressed to see that train come out of the package...
The look of determination on the job site.
Cali and Ryan are so cute together. Ryan loves chasing her, taunting her and cuddling. Only he will not call her Cali and only calls her "puppy."
Does he not look just like Max as a kid? Here he is in his the playhouse max scored for $12! (Just saw it online for $68!)
We met the Elzinga's at Robinettes for cider and donuts. Only the boys were WAY more interested in the big rig that hauled the horse trailer.
We were all troubled by the fact that it appeared both Ryan and Henry were well practiced at being arrested. "Spread um boys!"
We thought Ryan would enjoy a donut ....until we realized he enjoyed 4 of them. He had taken bites out of multiple and put each back in the box until he found the one he liked.
He loves to color now! Just like his momma.
Collision on the kitchen table. Our life is trucks, trucks and cars (he finally realized the difference last week!)
