Social Butterfly...

Ryan met a lot of friends during her time in Pre-K this past school year. She got invited to all the birthday parties of the kids in her class but sadly we couldn't make it to all of them. We did make it one of the parties, for her friend Summer. The party was at the Cale Shop and Ryan got to decorate cupcakes and cookies with all her friends and then they got to take them home. She had a great time with Summer and other friends from her class. I was glad that she got to go but I'm also kinda sad that her birthday is in the summer and she won't be able to pass out birthday invitations to her school friends so they can come to her parties. Oh we'll, since I can't do anything about that now, I'll just have to make sure she has a great time at her summer season birthday party!!!

They do this way too much...

I have said before and I guess I've said it in front of the girls that Huntington would have been a beautiful baby girl. I guess the girls sometimes get in the mood to make it happen. I tell the all the time to stop putting hair bows on him but they don't stop. And now that he's getting bigger and goes in their room with them to play, I bet they play dress up in there that I don't know about. I don't even wanna know what goes on in there, so long as they all come out alive!!!

Writing about my Ryan

So I still have some photos of Ryan on my phone and I want to get them on my blog before I have to delete them. I don't even know where to start with my Ryan, I just love her so much. She's a great big sister to her Sister and brother and she is becoming such a big helper at home. She is into learning everything she can about everything there is, she's a silly great dancer and can make up words to a song so quick you'll think she wrote the song. You'd think she's too big for her britches but she's not, she loves teddy bears and rainbows and strawberries and princess. She's a really girly girl but really like to be outside and get dirty. She wants to catch a lizard but can't get quiet enough to put her hand on one. She loves the beach and got so mad that we didn't get more and bigger crabs than the ones we did catch. She thinks her tennis shoes go with everything. She's a little bit of everything I love and just want to remember the sweet, spirited child that she is.

A post for my Brittles

I've for a lot of pics on my phone that I don't wanna delete but yet I don't wanna keep. So I'm trying to blog about them and then maybe I won't feel so bad about deleting them. So, I've compiled some pics of Brittyn and want to get them onto my blog so I when she is older (and so am I), I can remember and tell her about what a spunky and sweet little girl she was and probably will continue to be. She is so funny with the way she grabs my face when she has to tell me something really "important." She wants to be just like her sister, if Ryan wears sneakers you better bet Brittyn has hers on too. She loved her gym class and cried when it was over. She loves feeding her baby brother, even when I tell her not to feed him potato chips. She loves to sing along with the Florida Georgia Line boys and has to watch their videos several times a day. She's always willing to pack up and go wherever I need to go without reservation. I seriously can't look at her without smiling, even when I'm mad at her, which I can't really get mad at her, but you know what I mean. I love my Brittyn, my Britty, my Brittles and any other name I have or may come up with for her in the future.

A trip to the ER...

Huntington is the second child I have had to take to the ER. I had to take Brittyn last year due to a fall and subsequent bigger than big "goose egg" on her head. Thankfully, all was fine with the exception of that ugly bruise for a while. Now, it's my Bubby's turn for a trip. This was back before Easter, making Huntington 5-6 months old. It's been a while so please forgive me. Huntington got his turn with a stomach virus that had been going around early in the spring and he had it pretty bad. He wasn't eating or drinking very much and when he did, it was minimal. This had gone on for more than two days so after I called my pediatrician they told me to go to Urgent Care, who then referred me to the ER because Huntington was so small. So, off we went to the ER to make sure my baby boy was ok. Thankfully he was, he surprisingly ate a bottle of milk and juice while we were there so we didn't have to have any IV fluids and we were able to go home unscathed (no needles)!!! I hope I'm done with ER visits from here on out, unless Ryan finds out she's the only one who hasn't gone yet and get jealous and she tries to get in somehow by breaking a bone or something...knock on wood.

The rest of Easter...

If I don't finish posts about Easter
now, I won't ever finish!!! Every time I look for a specific Easter picture, I find 10 others on my phone that I haven't posted and talked about. And to be honest, I can barely remember all that we did during the Easter season. But we did hunt eggs, take pics with the bunny at the mall, open Easter baskets and eat a lot!!!

Official Easter pics...

This year we had the pleasure of having Easter pictures with my friend Leslie Lawson (Moore). She's an inclusive creative extraordinaire and is starting to add photography to the list of EVERYTHING else that she can do. However, for anyone who try's to photograph my brood, I don't think the word "pleasure" would come to their mind. But, Leslie is a trooper and she has kids my kids ages so she knows what I'm dealing with!!! We went out to her house, new house, it's amazing, she's an architect as well and designed her own house!!! We took pictures in the yard/woods between her and her parent's house. Again, my savior Kylia came with me and helped ease the kids where they would be somewhat cooperative with Leslie. Kylia really is a great help, I don't think she realizes how responsible she is for the pictures turning out the way they do!!! We had a great time visiting and photographing with Leslie, the pictures turned out just like I wanted them to!!! So, even though its July now, I'm always eager to say Happy Easter!!!
