Uncle Ryan’s Revenge

I guess this picture says it all

But for those of you who can’t quite make out the t-shirt Milo is wearing, it reads “My Uncle Ryan is the Best.” What a nice birthday present, when paired with Andrew’s own birthday present from Uncle Ryan, a t-shirt that reads simply, “Ryan’s Brother.”And the icing on the figurative birthday cake is the tin man…


… no heart? No heart!? This comment made by Uncle Ryan was a response to his oh-so-delicate son Casey being compared to our rather robust young bum a few months ago. I believe the conversation went something like this:

Andrew: “Casey’s going to get pounded by Milo.”
Ryan: “Milo might be bigger, but Casey’s got heart. He’ll always beat Milo.”
Andrew: “Milo has heart!”
Ryan: “I think Milo’s new nickname will be ‘Tin Man:’ no heart.”

Hm… I guess that age-old sibling rivalry has taken a nasty turn into cousin rivalry at the expense of our little guys! Poor Bum. But I refuse to trash-talk a baby, unlike some…

Anyway, thanks for the birthday presents, everyone! Milo especially loves the singing card sent by Gram and Bub and his stacking blocks, sent from Shawn, Annie, and Oren.

Stupid Tin Man…
Milo is onto you, Ryan.
After he “booped” Tin Man, he tried to flush him down the toilet.

  1. The T-shirt idea is awesome. That reminds me of Homer Simpson’s birthday gift to Marge that was a bowling ball with HOMER written on it. At least Homer offered to take it off her hands if she didn’t want it…

  2. Isn’t Ryan just the best brother/uncle!? Andrew, we really are lucky to have such a wonderful brother and should shower him with gifts and praise whenever we can. Ryan, thank you for being such a perfect brother and an even better uncle to our children. Also, thanks for the jerky stuff.

  3. Ryan,
    Even I know that you are the most priceless young, good looking and intelligent father on earth! Boy, I sure hope Andrew has time to take some life lessons from you. We all were starting to wonder who would come to his aid!!! HA! HA!
    (Love you lots, Andy…)
    Love, Lauren’s Mom
