9 1/2 Months and Counting!

Ahhhh! Fall is finally here, along with the cooler weather and the option of sleeping with your windows open at night. I absolutely love this time of year. My sweet husband informed me that I NEEDED to update our blog! Funny me! I didn't know Blogs had become a necessity??? Anyway, thought we'd share a few pictures. Many of you know that Ryan was named after Steven's brother Jim who passed away the year before Ryan was born. He was very special to Steven and so we gave Ryan the middle name James in his honor. Well, as Ryan was exploring the house this afternoon he crawled over to this cabinet where we have a picture of Jim....and he just stared. Kind of gives me chills. I didn't even realize what he was doing until I looked at the picture later. So....I just love this picture of Ryan and his uncle Jim.

Ryan and his bestest friend Cowboy (look how long my hair is).

This is what I do while Mommy empties the dishwasher.

One day I just might be a composer!

Look at Grandpa Steve teach me to color at breakfast on Sunday.

Cute, cute, cute. I've been sick all week, look at my rosy red cheeks.

Mommy says I'm too cute for my own good! Notice the police car on my shirt. Daddy won't let mommy buy any clothes with fire trucks on them!?!? Talk to you soon!

yes... in case you didn't know... your sweet husband is absolutely RIGHT!...Blogs do need to be updated FREQUENTLY!... especially when you have family too far away! :) I loved the picture of Ryan and Jim... these little ones know more than we think! We NEED to get together!... here or there, whatever... WE NEED TO GET TOGETHER!!!
