Sleepover Success!

Here's the video of Ryan the next morning. She was so sweet saying good morning to Joe and I and telling us that she loved us!!! Of course, the burp at the end was purely coincidental ya know...

Another first...


Last weekend Ryan had her first night away from home. We've been told by several people that we needed to do it and have had several people offer to host her, so we finally did it. Terah and Duncan came over Thursday night and Ry was dying to go home with them then. But, Terah had to work the next day so she had to wait. Terah called back on Saturday and asked if Ry could go home with her that night since she was coming to town. Of course I agreed, even though I must admit that I had Joe gas up my truck in case we had to make a late night run to Hosford to pick her up. Terah and Duncan said she did great!!! She woke up a time or two but a little milk and a LOT of DORA THE EXPLORER did the trick! She stayed the night and went to church the next day with Terah and Duncan and did great at nursery. So proud of my baby girl. Terah took some pics for me to keep me updated and even sent a video the next morning! See, I'm not lying, she did do a great job!!!

Has it really...

Has it really been THAT LONG since I last blogged?...I gues so, it has been over a month since I made mention of Ryan and all her comings and goings. Not too many pictures to post but I will try to do better. This summer has been too hot and in this heat it feels like it has gone by really slowly but with it being August and kids are going back to school this week I guess it hasn't stayed around too long. Ryan has been busy expanding her vocabulary and skills all over the place, singing songs, learning numbers and letters, building things and getting ready for her new sister to come!!! No we don't have a name just yet, we have some but can't commit to one name. Its kicking my butt that I haven't thought of a name so far. What's worse is that I don't even have a picture to upload of Ryan!!! I must repent, I know...I will work harder to be a better blogger, especially since I'm down to T-3 weeks before baby ________ Gray Longfellow is born!!! Oh well, no time like the present start over!
