Happy Halloween!

Well, I realize I'm a few days late in posting Halloween photos, but at least I'm posting them right:). Rylee is now 14 months old and is a wild one. She loves to run around and climb things. She has mastered climbing on the couch. Which wouldn't be that bad, except for the whole running thing. She runs back and forth and then will get as close to the edge as possible. She knows is scares us and we go running for her. She then smiles and turns and runs the other way. She is such a turkey.

I am so terrible at this blogging thing. I am trying to remember what we have done in the past month. My mom, Jessi, Rylee and I flew back to South Carolina to watch my cousin graduate from boot camp. He is now a united states marine. We are so proud of you Matt. I was really nervous about the flying, but she did great. That is until the very last flight. She ended up getting a belly ache and pretty much cried the entire flight.

I would like to wish a few people Happy Birthday. My Step-mom Anne had a birthday Nov 1. Thank you for being such a great person. You have always been so supportive of me. I really appreciate it. Next, my cousins son Logan, He turned 2 today. Happy Birthday Buddy. And last one for this week is my Aunt Terri. We love all you guys and hope you all have and had a great birthday.

Finally, I want to say congrats to my good friend Brandi & Jess on their new addition. A baby girl named Neely. She is the cutest little thing. Brandi is so awesome. She have delivered all her babies with no drugs. She is one tough cookie. She always tells me she feels like a wimp, because it really hurts. I have to correct her and tell her no, I am the wimp, but a proud wimp. I will take the pain meds over that pain any day. She is my hero. We love you guys and are so happy for you. Since I am on the topic of babies, I would like to wish a couple of friends good luck. Sarah & Chris and Scott & Shelby. They will both be adding new additions very soon. Good luck to you guys. We can't wait to hear the good news of your new bundles of joy. I guess I will leave you with some Halloween pictures. Have a good night all.

Disneyland and 1st Birthday!

Well, it is official, our baby girl is a year old. Crazy how time flies when your having fun. We started her birthday celebration out by taking her to Disneyland for a week. We had a great time. We arrived on Sunday August 29 and stayed until Sept 3. We stayed at the Grand Californian hotel, which is an amazing hotel. We had a view of the California Adventures park outside our window. It was also really convenient for when we got tired, because it was so close to the parks. The first night there, we really wanted to catch Fantasmic, because we have never seen it. Every time we go, it is not going and this time, Sunday was the only day it was going while we were there. So, we went in to Disneyland, took Rylee on a few rides and then sat at a table waiting for it to start. Rylee crashed out 5 minutes before it started. We thought she would wake up when it started, because it was loud, but she must have been really tired, because she didn't budge. It was a good show though. On Tuesday, My mom, step dad and Abbie joined us at Disneyland. We had a great time together. Wednesday was Rylee's actual birthday, so we decided to take her to build a bear and let her build one. She picked out the bear she wanted. She was very picky about the one she wanted. We did a personal message for her too. Anytime she pushes the bears hand she hears our voices and gets such a big smile. It is so cute. We also ate at the Blue Bayou, which is the restaurant inside Pirates of the Caribbean. It was pretty good. On Thursday we decided to try and go to the beach, who knew it would be 65 degrees at the beach and cloudy. It wasn't the best time at the beach, but we had fun. We didn't stay to long though. We went into the park for a little bit on Friday before heading home. We really had a great time. In fact we are tempted to get annual passes now.

Rylee and Daddy, getting ready to head to Disneyland!

We couldn't get a smile out of her, I think she was a little unsure.

So I apoligize, apparently this is going to be a very long post. Now on to her actual Birthday party. We did it at Danny's mom's house. It really turned out very well. Thank you Chuck and Deb for allowing us to take over your house for the evening. She had a lot of fun. Lots of Family and friends came to celebrate with us. She got a lot of great gifts. She didn't smash into her cake, she just enjoyed picking at it. I will just post some pictures of it, so you can all see how much fun we had.

Some family and her cool banner we had made!

My baby girl!

Apparently my computer doesn't want me to upload any more pictures right now, so I will finish uploading them later. I figured this is enough for now. I guess I will leave you with a few fun facts about Rylee Roo. She has 5 teeth now. She says momma, dadda, baba, she says kitty kitty, but is sounds more like tizzy tizzy. She loves her kitty kitty. She says Hi really well. She always greets us with a very cute hi when she wakes up in the morning. She waves hi and bye. She does a different wave for each. She tries to blow kisses. She points to objects and says whats that, over and over again. I am sure there is a ton more, but I am drawing a blank now. I just can't believe how lucky we are to have such a beautiful, funny, sweet, loving, amazing, adorable little girl. We just love her so much. Can't wait to see what this next year will bring.

Pictures

She was playing with Daddy's hat. She loves to put things on her head. And around her neck, which is a bit scary sometimes.

Bad Dreams

I want to try and blog more then once every three months, so here it goes. For the past week, me and Danny have been taking turns having bad dreams. Or should I say hallucinations. We take turns practically diving off the bed because we think Rylee is falling off the bed. We take turns doing it though. One night I do it, the next night Danny. Sometimes I think it would be funny to set up a video camera so we can see what retarded things we do at night. (I'm sure some of you are thinking dirty thoughts right now, well stop it. I only want to set up a camera because we both have hallucinations.) And no, we aren't on drugs. I'm totally laughing just thinking of it. I seriously dove over Danny one night. I'm surprised I didn't kill him. The next night he is diving at my feet, totally freaked me out. The funny thing is, while all of this is going on, Rylee is sound asleep in her playpen. I do want to add though, that this is the only thing that I dream about. Danny does this all the time. I don't know how many times I have been rudely awoken with Danny freaking out, throwing the covers off the bed. He swears up and down there is a spider. The first few times I fell for it, so I would help him try and find this spider. After a while I got tired of it, and would just tell him to get back to bed. So, he is always having weird dreams. Well, now that I got that off my chest. Miss Rylee is now popping her 3rd tooth through. I'm still not convinced it was ready, but Rylee would grind her huge bottom tooth on her upper gums, so I think she helped it along a bit. I guess the more teeth, the better to eat her 1st Birthday cake. I still can't believe she will be 1 in a few weeks. It is crazy how fast it has gone. Well I guess I will leave you with a few pictures. Nevermind, I am on Danny's work computer and it is not cooperating, so I will have to post pictures later.

More Pictures

Well last night when I was trying to post pictures, it kept telling me it couldn't save anything, so today I was able to post, but it moved my pictures around and took out my descriptions of them, so here are a few more pictures to enjoy. These pictures range in age from 9 to 11 months.

Absolutely love this one of her chewing on a ketchup package

Sleeping with Scrappy.

She loves to get under our table and push out all the chairs.

11 months old yesterday

It has been a while since my last post. We have just been so busy with our baby girl. She is doing so great. She started walking at 10 months and there is no stopping her now. She has 1 toothpretty much all the way in and another one starting to come in. They are both on the bottom. She is such a smart little booger. She only has to watch us once and will then copy what we do. She loves to dance, it doesn't matter what kind of music. She loves the show Yo Gabba Gabba. It is rather interesting, but she enjoys it.

She had her 1st 4th of July. She liked the fireworks, but only if she was sitting with either me or Danny. She tried to sit with Jessi for a bit, but started to get scared. She definitely likes to be with her Mommy or Daddy. More so with Daddy, but Mommy will do if Daddy isn't around.
She turned 11months old yesterday. I can't believe it. It has just flown by. We are starting to plan her 1st b day party. For her actual birthday, we will be in Disneyland, so it should be fun.
Let me talk about some of the things she does. She loves to pull out all of our DVDs, she loves the animals, they just aren't to fond of her. She loves to just lay on them, I can't figure out why they don't like that.. She loves to love on stuffed animals, she hugs them so tight, and then will bring them to us for us to love on them. She is really starting to get good at sleeping through the night, which is great for mommy and daddy. She is still sleeping in our room. I keep saying I will move her after her 1st b day. We shall see if that happens. I like her being at the foot of our bed in her playpen. She loves to play in the dogs water dish, she also likes to put things in there. She tried to put daddy's phone in there yesterday. We are constantly telling her No, not to play in that. After we walk away she will walk right back to it and look at us. She knows she isn't supposed to be playing in it, and it's like she is taunting us. She is such a turkey. She really is such a good baby. I just can't picture my life without her now that she is in it. Well I guess that is all I can think of for now. I will try and update a little sooner next time.

Rylee at her 1st dbacks game, actually this was her second.

This was her first game, and she slept right through it.


Having fun in the tub.

She already doesn't listen, we are in for it.

It has been a while

I haven't posted in a while. I will probably miss a ton of details, but such as life. We are having an absolutely amazing time raising our little girl. Each day is a new adventure. She started crawling at the end of April. She is all over the place now. She is pulling her self up and walking along furniture. I don't think it will be long before she is walking. She is just such a good baby. I am afraid to have anymore, because I don't know if they will be as good as her.



We enjoyed a great wedding on May 1st. Our friends from high school, Sarah and Chris tied the knot. It was a beautiful wedding. Come to find out, they are expecting their first little one too. We are so excited for them. I then celebrated my first Mother's Day. It was great. I just wanted to relax and that is what I did. My hubby gave me a choice between a new lap top or a camera. I chose a new camera. I picked it out this past weekend. I absolutely love it. I just have to figure out how to use it. :).



My mom had a pretty rough month last month, so I decided to make this month much better for her. Chester took her to Disneyland for her birthday. I arranged for the rest of us kids to meet up there on Friday. We got rooms at knotts Berry Farm. We were going to surprise her at dinner, but we didn't know if we were all gonna get there in time, so I decided to put Rylee in front of there door and knock. When mom answered the door, she just stood there, I was like, are you gonna pick up the baby. She was so excited to see her, and the rest of us. Knotts Berry Farm was not that great, but we were all together and that is what mattered. Rylee was not feeling real well. She actually started running a fever on Saturday night. Poor baby. We did have a good time though.



We have plans to go to the Diamondbacks game this weekend. Hopefully she will be feeling better. Well I am sure there was a lot more that happened in the past two months, but this is all I can remember. I will try and post pictures soon. I am so behind on them.
