Christmas Pictures 2009

Ryan took pictures last week with Cecilee Poppell for her Christmas cards...it was a dismal day and rained toward the end, I really think that it was Ryan who ordered the "rain" so that my little diva could finish her photo shoot on her time...We had a good time and I hope to be sending cards out shortly...Merry Christmas!!!

Thanksgiving 2009...

Wow, I can't belive how much Ryan is growing...every day is something new...I can't believe it!...Anyway, we had an awesome Thanksgiving with the Shulers and the Longfellows...I only took pictures of Ryan so here are pics of her with Amelia at the Longfellow house and then her with Addisyn and Olivia at the Shuler house...

Granny J's aresnal...

Granny J does it again...she took some pictures of Ryan last week and was playing with photoshop and must've had fun playing with Ryan's photos...we've had a good time thus far getting ready for Christmas and putting up the tree...Ryan loves the Christmas tree and I love saying "no touching" every time she breathes close to it...At least she gets to play outside at granny j's house and look cute doing it...

Halloween 2009

I love Halloween...I really do...I don't do all the decorations and stuff but I really love Halloween!!! If I didn't love it so much, I would have already had my Christmas tree put up like Kylia and Jaren (yeah, they really do have their trees and Christmas decorations up already). But my favorite thing about Halloween is pumpkin carving...last year Ryan was barely able to hold her head up but this year is a totally different story...take a look, the difference is amazing to me...time really does fly!!! She was a baby chick for Halloween this year and we had Trunk or Treat at the church in Bristol...I've got to work on her begging for candy skills, we came home empty handed because she spent the whole night running around and I spent the whole night chasing after her. We still had a blast after it was all over...till next year!!!

Puppy love...

comes in so many different ways...this time its in the form of Ryan chasing puppies and full grown dogs all night at Stephenie's birthday party...She would laugh and chase and try to touch the "pup pup"...eventually Joe gave her the chance to pet the dog and she loved it but she wasn't as brave as she thought she was...either way she was able to touch the "pup pup" and loved every minute of it...

Peek a boo...

I see you!!! Ryan is showing her true colors while playing with the laundry...found her wanting me to "search" for her hiding under one of her daddy's shirts...

We should do this more often...

have FHE I mean...My family doesn't have it near enough and we really should. It turns out to be such fun! Especially when the Nettles come over and have dinner and Ryan gets to play with all her cousins. Speaking of cousins, Amelia is a perfect playmate for Ryan, unless when she gets stuck...in the bumbo chair...and I am taping her...and watching her NOT be able to get out...Listen to her grunt, it is so pitiful and hilarious!!! Good job Mia!!!

Up to speed...

Tons of things have been happening, I will try to be brief and let the videos do the talking...The most recent events being General Conference and letting Ryan enjoy feeding herself a lazy Sunday breakfast...I wish we had time for that every morning...She makes such a beautiful mess!!!

Funny Addy

Garet's girl Addisyn is so precious, just thought I'd share some extra cuteness in the family! Can't beat it!

Diaper delima...

I'm trying to get Ryan to bring me a diaper that she pulled out of the diaper bucket. She needs to be changed and it looks like the louder I get, the more she laughs. I am supposed to be intimidating!!!

Just can't get enough...

Posing for Granny J

Lovin' Dora and Boots...

This is what happens when your pig tails are pulled too tight...

I just can't handle how cute she is here...

Pony tails on either side...TWO of them!!!

Ryan is proudly displaying her three incoming teeth

Still not liking that bow in her hair...

Granny J took a few more pictures and I can't help but show y'all. These were all taken this week and last week and somehow she seems to capture Ryan at some of her cutest moments. And I can't believe she has enough hair for pig tails, TWO pony tails at 14 months old!!!
