    Those photos of Ryder are adorable! My youngest turns one this week and I feel a whole crazy mix of emotions about it. It feels huge!

    That drawer transformation is awesome! How would you feel about stopping by to tackle a few at my house...doesn't that sound like fun?

    Have a great week!

    Love those pictures of Ryder, especially the one where he's using the toy to get to the piano! Reminds me of Buster when he was young.

    I can see why not getting lockjaw would be something you would be very happy about.

    I'm still waiting for my son's first love note. I have a feeling he's already got one and is not telling me about it.

    I feel like I was a part of all of that, and I completely agree, those are some perfect May moments!

    Ryder's 1 year photos are some of the best I have ever seen. Adding that hat was genius.

    I am always smitten with photos of Ryder (Happy Birthday again, healthy, happy boy!!!) but I have to say that the drawer totally makes me smile. That is some major progress!

    Congrats on being BFF :)
