Ryan's personality

To give you an idea of Ryan's personality, I thought I'd tell you about yesterday and today.

Yesterday
In the morning, I was doing Sean's diaper change first. Sean decided to run around bottomless and sit 10 feet away from me. "Sean, get back here. Seany, I have to put your diaper on you."

Sean giggled.

So, Ryan went over to him. Ryan said, "Ga, Ga, Ga..." Ryan pointed at me. And when all that failed.

Sean continued to giggle.

Ryan, lifted Sean at the shoulder and tugged him back into diaper changing position.

One would think, Ryan would be very still and well behaved during his own diaper change. One would be wrong. Very, very wrong.

Ryan took off once his diaper was off. Ryan ran aimlessly through the house taunting me. Begging to be chased by Sean, by Alex, by Andrew, by anybody to make his diaper change oh, so much more fun.

Break to bath time. Andrew and I were outside watering. Alex went for a bike ride with some neighbors. Mark having bathed both babies asks, "So who wants to get out first."
Ryan pointed at Sean. And then just to make sure Daddy got the message, gave Sean a little shove forward.

Today
Ryan had kindermusik. Toddlers, music, toys, whats not to like? His brothers have to go to sibling care. So he spends the whole time pretending he can't shake a bell, doesn't like pudding, and suddenly the kid can't dance. This is the same kid who upon hearing the Cars CD (Andy's favorite music) spreads his legs and sways from side to side pointing his fingers out, in some kind of disco move he some how picked up.
