Play "Date"

Maddie L. was born just 12 days before Ryan. Of course her mom (Sandy) and I think that the “kids” are just so CUTE together! We got together this afternoon at her house for a play date. (AND her mom was nice enough to keep Ryan for an hour while I got my hair trimmed! [...]

I guess I’m selfish!

I know it’s not even up to me, but I’m tired of Ric’s calling as Young Men’s President. It takes him away from Ryan and I too often!
For example…today Ric was scheduled to volunteer at Buttonhole Golf Course, a place that he doesn’t get to very often. It’s something he loves to do, and I’m [...]

Go get your Jammies….

Ryan had been running around in a diaper for a while after his bath, and it was time to put some PJ’s on him. I didn’t feel like getting my ROUND self off the couch, so I asked Ryan to go get his jammies.
He did EXACTLY as I asked! Went to his room, and brought [...]

This was a football…until Ryan got at it.

Here are some pictures from after dinner Sunday night. Ryan was carrying around his little foam football and occasionally throwing it in Dad’s direction. A few unsupervised minutes later, the football’s life was ended prematurely thanks to Ryan and his discovery of how teeth are stronger than foam footballs.

So it’s not the best picture, but here’s Ryan on the right, sitting at the table for snacks during nursery today at Church. (You can see another little boy across the table who’s just a few months older than Ryan with blonde hair and a black eye! That’s Braxton – who we’re hoping will be [...]

NOW…I can have this baby!

I decided to save the $30-40 it would cost to have a pedicure (though it would have been nice!) and splurge on some nice $5 nail polish instead. (OPI Bogota Blackberry to be exact.)
Picture this…
Me, with a HUGE belly sitting on the couch with my foot on a stool. My left hand trying to hold [...]

More Juice Please

The other day, I was sitting on the couch while Ryan was playing with some toys. He came over to me with his sippy cup, grabbed my hand and gave it to me, making sure that I didn’t drop it.
Then he signed “more” “juice” “please” – HIS FIRST SENTENCE! In sign language too! Woo Hoo!
Of [...]

THIS…is driving me CRAZY!

ARRRRRGH! Look at my desk! I have NO idea how I survive some days when it looks like this! Usually, I’m able to get things organized every couple of days, but lately, it’s insane! With so much to do lately, I’ve let this slip!
Here are just a FEW things that are all over it…business supplies, [...]

Baby #2 Update…

So nothing much has changed, except that this baby is even MORE HUGE than before! At the Dr’s yesterday she said that, based on her estimation, it probably weighs at least 9 pounds right now. (GREAT!) BUT, there’s nothing happening “down there” to indicate that it’s ready to come out any time soon.
The only thing [...]

Big Boy Bed upgrade 1.0

This week while I was off from work, we took time to get Ryan’s room cleaned and set up for his latest upgrade, the “Big Boy Bed”. Here’s the first picture that we snapped just moments after the bed was in place and Ryan figured out that it was going to be his. Of [...]
