See my sister Katie's website, too!

Born 8:16:30 PM, 15 December 2006, La Jolla, California.

8 pounds, 12.2 ounces (3,975g). 20" (51 cm).

The technical gobbledygook after each shot is the equipment I used for each photo. Many photographer friends ask.

Ryan asked me to take him in "the Mee" (dad's 8-year-old Mercedes) to go to Legoland, so we did.

Ryan's first stop was the Storybook ride.

Just before we started, we heard some little girls calling "Ryan, Ryan."

I didn't know that we brought any friends with us, so I presumed it was another Ryan for which they called. Nope, it was some of Ryan's little playtime friends who recognized him from the walkway as they were waiting to start the ride. Yay!

When we got off, I suggested we wait for his friends to finish so we could see them. We did, and as soon as the got off,

Ryan watching TV

Ryan watching his "All About Big Red Fire Engines" fire truck (and doo-dah truck) movie. (Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 28mm f/1.8, very dimmed light, lit mostly by a CRT, f/1.8 at 1/8 hand-held, A4 2,500K WB, Standard picture with +2 saturation, highlights and shadow tweaks turned on, Auto ISO 3,200.)

Ryan playing wth the batteries. (Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 50mm f/1.8 II, tungsten light (I turned up the dimmers), f/1.8 to f/2 at 1/40 hand-held, A3 2,500K WB, Standard picture with +2 saturation, shadow tweak turned on, ISO 1,600. I'm impressed that all these five shots are exactly as-shot. Even in this crummy light, the 5D Mark II was able to pull out great colors on the sots not lit by a CRT.)
