Jason and I at the Donnie Smith Bike Show
Nash is doing super!! He is such a big boy!! He is already 30lbs at 14mos! Rylie is 34 at 41/2! He is into everything! He shakes his head no as he gets into mischief!

(Rylie is in the center)

The big recital weekend has come and gone and we are so proud of Rylie for performing like a true little dancer!! Extra smiles and a little extra sass in her performance even!!

Here is Nash ready to take on the world!! His new helmet to help get his head shape right is being sported here,well has to be on for 23.5 hours a day so for the next few months there will not be a photo with out it! Daddy got some stickers to make it look a little more like a moto X Helmet. The other day when we had Rylie out skiing we had a number of people think that he too was skiing due to the helmet!! Soon but not quite this soon.

I need to get better at getting this thing updated! Nash is almost 1! Where does the time go, I mean really??? The days go faster and faster..no real waiting to the weekend cause it comes and goes so fast! Nash is walking, exploring and trying to get into EVERYTHING! Rylie did not care much about getting into things..if it would not open on the first few tries she would move on. Not our Nash! O NO!! He will bang on it, hold onto it and sit back to put his weight into it..all 25lbs of himself or make grunting noises until we come and get him or do it for him!

Wow its been awhile! I found myself "surfing", don't know if its still called that or not, but thought I would update my blog! Poor little 2nd born has not even made his appearance here yet! Well here we are almost welcoming in 2010...wow! We are all doing really good! Jason working crazy hours at night and me trying to keep the kids quiet as dad sleeps..and trying to find time for Jason and I..its crazy!

WINTER 2009...WHAT A LONG ONE ITS BEEN!

Here is a quick catching up of the past few weeks....

When you are stuck inside for so many months you break down and let your child ride her bike in the house, even setting up a little course for her to ride around on!

Jason's view every morning as he is wrapping up a long night at work, well maybe not every morning is as pretty as this one

My little sas had to where her "Hannah Ontana" hat to go out to work with Daddy

Rylie likes to play makeup...as you can see she is very proud of what a great job she does...she was trying to make me look like a "cat" she said

This is Rylie on our way home from spending the day with Grandma LaLa for her 97th Birthday...whew

39 weeks...and counting

And 38 weeks

My tummy at about 36 weeks...at this point I was thinking...anyday now....

Princess by night! Rylie decided to wear two different costumes this year. She was going to be fairy princess until she saw last years Ladybug costume, so she wanted to be the Ladybug for school and the fairy princess for trick or treating

First Day of Preschool

Back pack, CHECK, new school outfit, CHECK
Today was a very big day! I cried for most of the morning, no joke! The waterworks started as I drove into the parking lot of preschool! All I could think about was not letting Rylie see me crying, and I dont mean some tears I was all out sobbing! How embarrrrasssing! The teacher aids were coming to my rescue with hugs and tissues! WOW day two here we come, I think!

Three already!!
