Ryan and Debi & Toren

  • Savannah, GA

    Debi had a conference in Hilton Head, SC from the 20th through the 23rd.  Since Hilton Head is within driving distance (about 7 hours), we decided we’d all go up.  On the way we stopped to see a friend and colleague in Jacksonville, then continued on to Savannah, GA.  We had heard it was a…

  • Toren swinging

    Toren has just recently decided he likes swinging.  I used to put him in swings and he would want out almost immediately.  Now, he laughs and giggles as you push him. It’s quite cute:

  • Toren eating crackers and saying “mine” and “uh oh”

    Toren has begun saying “no” with increasing frequency.  It was cute at first.  Now it’s increasingly aggravating.  Anyway, I was trying to get him to say it on camera in this clip, but he ended up surprising me.  I asked him if I could have a cracker and he eventually gave me one.  I was…

  • Toren playing keywack

  • Toren wanting to go backpacking

  • Toren stomping

    Toren went through a little phase where he would walk around stomping.  I caught him doing this in some sheds we visited at Home Depot:

  • Toren eating peas

    Toren was going to town on his peas one night.  He was so into it I thought it worthy of filming:

  • Toren’s vibrato

    For quite a while now, Toren and I play a little game.  I’ll vibrate his chin while he makes noise, making it sound like he’s singing vibrato.  I finally caught it on film in the grocery store one day:

  • Toren voted

    We recently had local elections here in Tampa.  As the place we vote isn’t that far from our house (maybe a mile and a half), we decided to walk and take Toren along.  After we voted, Toren wanted our stickers:
