Ryan's baby

This is Ryan's baby. He got this glow worm from my sister, Heidi on his 1st birthday, but until recently, it was just another toy that was just placed from one spot to the next, waiting to be adored by a little boy. It's day has finally come. Ryan LOVES this thing. He calls it baby, makes it glow and sing by pushing it's belly, and even cuddles it like his own little baby. Today was different. Today he brushed it's teeth, fed it his bottle, dressed it and LOVED it even more! He played with "Baby" for like an hour. After the feeding, teeth brushing and getting dressed. Baby was ready for a nap. Keep in mind that when Ryan gets up from his nap, that he takes about everything out of his crib that he can fit in his hands and MY hands.



This is how Ryan putting Baby to sleep goes;
Bring Baby in to his room and put it in the crib. Then leave the room, while saying "Shhhhh" and holding his finger up to his lip. Shut the door and say, Baby sleeping.
Oops, we found the blanket, so back to the room we go, place the blanket on the baby (just like we do for Ryan), then repeat the Shhh, and closing of the door and saying Shh, Baby sleeping.
Oops, we found the other blanket...back to the room, place the second blanket, repeat the Shhh, shut the door, then say again, Shhh, Baby sleeping.
Oh, the Binky, back the room, place the binky, repeat the shhh, walk out, shut the door, repeat Baby sleeping.
Oh, the stuffed puppy that goes in the crib....back to the room, throw the puppy back in the crib, repeat the shhh, shut the door, and repeat AGAIN, shhh, Baby sleeping. (Oh, I know that everyone is catching on NOW)
Hey, another toy that needs to go in with Baby, back to the room, throw in the toy, repeat everything else...blah, blah.....
And yet more toys, one by one made it into the crib.

It was so cute and hilarious at the same time. He repeated the loving things each time, but at that point he was just picking up random toys off the floor and dropping them into the crib. (I think he thought that Baby Glow Worm was going to get bored. Maybe this is his way of telling me to put some more junk in the crib for him) So, after the minor concussions brought upon by Ryan to Baby, the baby woke up from his nap, and like a good Mama, Ryan went right in to get him up from his nap. What a sweet little boy he is.
