Ramsey Visits Cincinnati for Thanksgiving



We all had a wonderful Thanksgiving visit with many family and friends in Cincinnati. The first couple days were spent with Ramey's Grandma and Grandpa Browning, Uncle Ryan, Aunt Barb, Aunt Sarah, and cousin Connor. We all went to the zoo, the conservatory, Skyline Chili, and the park. I think Ramsey and Connor enjoyed swinging on the swings together the most! We were able to take advantage of the free babysitting for our traditional bowling night.

Most of the Hoffmann family came to Cincinnati to spend Ramsey's first Thanksgiving with him. The lucky guy got to spend it with both of his Grandparents and most of his aunts and uncles.

Throughout the week Ramsey got to meet his Great Aunts Peggy, Janice, Carol and Kim, Great Uncles Bill, Pat, Tom and Paul, Cousins Maria, Sarah, Chloe, Max, Kara, McKea, Will, Rebecca, Chris, and friends!

Although we're still waiting for a tooth to appear, Ramsey is moving right along with learning how to walk. He can pull himself up to standing and loves to be walked around the house. He conquered climbing up all of the stairs in Cincinnati, too!

8 Month Old Bucket Boy!


Scott discovered that a bucket is a great tool for learning how to stand and entertaining to be spun around in as well. Ramsey has already started pulling himself up to standing - it started out the first time on a laundry basket, then he went to the dogs and the changing table, and has now graduated to the couch! Just today he has started showing interest in walking around while you hold his hands.

We haven't been very successful in getting Ramsey to try new veggies, or even eat ones he liked in the past. He has taken a liking to fruit, yogurt, and cereal. I think his favorite are plums and peaches. He was screaming with excitement the first time he tried the yogurt.

We're looking forward to upcoming trip to to Cincinnati to meet more of the family!
