BIG BOY!!!


Ryker says good-bye to his binkies and hello to a new skateboard. My little boy is growing up. He is turning three on Sept.9 - and isn't waisting any time. For anyone who knows Ryker, you know his great love for his binkies or his "Dee's" as he calls them. Well there were 3 left on his binkie holder and they got lost Saturday morning. After looking forever - Jason told him he could finally get a skateboard because he had no more "Dee's". So we went to the store and bought a skateboard. (We have been telling him for months that if he got rid of his binkies he could have a skateboard). He got rid of them on accident - we found them later and hid them again and told him the Binkie fairy has them. He has done so well - I can't believe it. He only asks for them when he gets tired and we have had a few moments when he tells us he doesn't want the skateboard anymore and he wants his "Dee's". We are going on 4 days now!
I took the picture of his binkie collection so we could remember them - but I just couldn't get myself to throw them away. They're in hiding! He has also been wearing his big boy underwear with very few accidents and went to nursery with no tears this week. Trust me these are huge accomplishments! My cute little boy is growing up!!!

Oh...he is growing up!! And yeah for the big boy underwear! I'll have to show Zander his skateboard. He loves skateboards!

To answer your question about posting small pictures...when you post the picture, there's a section on the right that you can select small, medium, or large. I still am not very proficient at posting pictures. I'm still learning too!

Skateboard is much better than a binkie!! He looks alot cuter on a skateboard than with a pacifier in his mouth:)

Glad to hear he is still doing good with that! Good job Ryker. I loved the Labor Day pics, it looks like you had a lot of fun!
