Thanksgiving and 4 Months

We had a nice relaxing Thanksgiving at my mom's house in Georgia. It was a small crowd. It was just our family, my mom, and my little brother. Aiden loved spending time with Grandma and loved getting to play with new toys and play outside in the warm weather down South.

 The feast! So delicious!

Poor Ryder all he can chew on are his beads.

The post-feast stupor...

Ryder also turned 4 months on over Thanksgiving on November 25th! He is getting so big. Starting about a week before Thanksgiving he could roll both ways front to back and back to front. He is a very wiggly and mobile little guy. He is also very vocal and loves to babble and laugh. Oh and his favorite thing in the whole world is getting his diaper changed/being naked. At his doctor's appointment he weighed 14 pounds and was 25 1/2 inches long. He LOVES to watch and interact with Aiden. Of course Aiden doesn't really know how to respond to this attention from his little brother. But Aiden is so sweet to his little brother. Anytime he cries he comes up to him and says "It's ok baby Ryder, it's ok." And he likes trying to give him toys now that Ryder can grab things. And just yesterday Ryder started sleeping in his crib in Aiden's room. So they are now sleeping in the same room together....we will see how it goes, but so far so good! He did amazing the first night and did not wake up until 5 in the morning. It was the most sleep I had gotten in I am not sure how long.
