Happy Happy 16th Birthday Ryker!

 Happy 16" Birthday Ryker!

Dear Ryker, 


You are now a licensed driver, and there is no stopping you now! 16 years old is such a HUGE milestone. You have had a great year. You got your permit and did lots of driving us all around. Took driver's ed and passed the physical test with flying colors. You and Dad finished building your truck, and you are so proud of it. It was an amazing accomplishment and a lot of hard work. You finished up your freshman year of high school and did such a great job in all your classes. Then it was off to start your sophomore year. I just cannot believe you are this old. Where did my little toota bug go? You were able to harvest a bull elk, which was a great shot and a great-looking bull. You went on your first duck hunting adventure with Trent. You love to hunt and enjoy your time outdoors. Larkyn and you harvested bucks this year, and you were so sweet to let her shoot the bigger one since it was her first hunt. We surprised you with a new KTM 125. It seems too big for you, but you handle it like a champ. It has been so fun watching you race and ride it. You have improved so much. You met Addie and started dating, which you are still going strong. I am so happy about that, as you went to your first high school homecoming dance and just seem more adventurous. It was fun to get you ready for your first dance. I love watching you treat her like a princess and be such a gentleman. We have done so much camping and exploring around our state this past year. Luckily, we go a lot with the Nielson's, so you and Easton are always hanging around together. You have a lot of friends, but your closest seem to be Bridger, Easton, Maverick, Daygun, Bryson and Jaxson. This has been such a fun year watching you grow, become so independent, helpful, strong, and just an all-around great young man. You are still a Mama's boy and I love every minute of that. I am so happy we have such a close relationship. Happy 16th Birthday, Ryker.

 

We love you so much,

Dad and Mom


Of course, we went up the day of his birthday and got his license.

4 years old?

Dear Ryker, How in the world are you 4 years old? I remember your Daddy handing me this tiny precious lovie like it was yesterday. I don't care how old or big you get you will ALWAYS be my baby, my first born that taught me so much. I never knew true, pure, deep love until I had you! This has been a BIG year for you.... you are FINALLY "poop" potty trained. Oh my Ryker I cannot believe how INCREDIBLY hard you were to potty train. Although we still have some pee accidents all in all you do great, I think you are just to on the go to take the time out from playing. You started preschool and you love it! Your best friends are Cash and Beckham (Bear). Some mornings you do not want to go and whine that you want me to go with you but you always go and come back home with the biggest smile and tell me how much fun you had. You are learning so much and it amazes me, I will listen and watch you play or watch a tv cartoon and you can usually answer all the questions correctl...

Happy MOTHER'S Day!

I LOVE Mother's Day. I love being a Mommy.... Ryker is truly the BEST thing that has ever happened to me and I am so extremely blessed that he is my baby! I woke up to Ryker saying "Happy Mom" and Chris and Ryker making me breakfast. I got a hand made card from Chris and Ryker and it melted my heart and made me cry like a baby. Chris and I talked before Mother's day and I asked him not to get me any gifts which he was disappointed in but we are in the process for buying a toy hauler and I wanted to make sure that was cut and dried before spending any money. Chris wanted to get me and promised me a seat to go on the back of my four-wheeler.... he spoils me! I love my two lovies so very much! Thank you for making my day so incredibly SPECIAL! I cherish every moment I have with the two men in my life! I've been called a lot of things in my life, but my favorite of all is Mommy! As Dora and I went the cemetery yesterday to decorate Mom's and Grandma'...

My poor baby boy

Ryker had a few bumps on his back that I noticed on Sunday. I figured it was his sensitive skin from us out camping and from me not putting an lotion on him. I hate to put lotion on him when we are camping because I feel like all the dust sticks to him and makes him even more dirty. Anyways on Monday he was so whiny and running a fever so we packed up and came home. Ryker struggled with the fever all night M onday and even actually slept with Chris and I which has never happened. I figured the fever was from two more of his teeth coming through. Anyway Tuesday when he woke up Ryker was normal again happy as can be so we went about our day. Well Wednesday I needed to go to work so I packed Ryker up to take him to Grandma Irene and I was telling her about these bumps on his legs that you could feel but barley see and she said her other granddaughter gets bumps all the time and it's no big deal. She agreed it was probable from camping and his sensitive skin. When Chris brought ...
