Silly Little Girl

Our little book worm, LOVES to read and be read to 24/7!
Last week Ry painted hand turkeys for both sets of grandparents and one for us. After being so good she got to paint what she wanted, her own little masterpiece.

Daddy wrestling with Ry after her bath. She likes to run around the bed and make us chase her down to dress her and comb her hair, she thinks it's pretty funny. Brad kept calling her Donald Trump baby because of how her hair looked when trying to brush it.

Ry loves her necklaces!

Such a big girl, she did this pose all on her own, I promise!

Whenever Ry sees us using a napkin she wants one too =)

She is pretty good at wiping her mouth and hands. She even gets carried away and will clean her tray or the counter (depending on where she is eating).

My favorite part of the day.... morning snuggles and cartoons! She is so obsessed with Mickey Mouse right now it is almost borderline scary! She wakes up saying Mickey, goes to sleep saying Mickey and wants to watch it all day looooong (I don't let her of course in case you're wondering)!

Playing blocks with Maw and having so much fun!

How cute is this?!
Lately Ry has found it necessary to try and carry all of her stuffed animals at one time, Pink Dog and Minnie are a must at all times, but then here she is trying to also hold a bunny too. Here she is getting a little frustrated I'm not helping her and taking pictures instead, hence having to use her mouth for help.

My Mommy is so mean!

There, that's better!
I try to stay in bed as long as possible since Ry feels the need to wake up just shy of 7:00 every morning. She drinks her milk, snuggles for a bit and then begins rolling around and talking. Only when she starts foaming at the mouth for Mickey, I turn it on to get at least 30 more min. She has become a little pro at getting off the bed by herself, which will be nice when we move her to her big girl bed! When I finally got the strength to get out of bed this morning, this is what I found....


Have a great weekend/Thanksgiving break!

Family Pictures

My sister took our family pictures Saturday over in Frisco at Babes. Rylee was soooooo uncooperative, I was so beside myself. She didn't want to listen to anything we said. If we said sit she stood, if we said stand she sat, or just run off. Then, we tried giving her a cookie, but then she wouldn't let go of it or eat it. Finally she ate it, then she wouldn't let go of her cup, grrrrr!

Good thing my sister is amazing and Rylee is so darn cute, because she managed to get some good pictures! Thank you Chrissy, you're the best!

We were trying to get her to rest her foot on the door behind her (the cowboy pose), and this is what she kept doing, sooo stinkin cute!
So sweet, love this!

She is actually trying to get away here, stinker!


We love you Chrissy, thanks again!

"Babe!"

Last week Brad came home for lunch one day and was eating at the bar in the kitchen and Rylee was drinking her milk on the couch while watching t.v. before her nap. All of a sudden, Rylee stood up on the couch and held out her cup to Brad and said, "Babe!" Brad and I looked at each other wondering if we both heard her say the same thing, and then she continued to try and hand Brad her cup while saying, "babe," to get his attention. We both started dying laughing, she thought it was pretty funny herself. Ever since then, she randomly calls Brad, babe. I wish I could get it on video, but it is so random when she does it.

My pictures got a little out of order, but my sister watched Rylee today while I got my hair done. Later in the day she sent me these pictures that she had taken of her, LOVE them! She is supper talented, you can check out her photography blog here.




Thursday is my cleaning day and while I had out the step ladder to dust the shelves, Rylee decided it would be fun to walk across it.

She also wanted to help wipe off the bar stools, such a good little helper.
Friday morning I got to keep Addie while my sweet friend Michelle finished up some of her amazing sewing for a show she had this weekend, you can check out her cute stuff here. Rylee just LOVES Addie, they are so cute together and play so well! Rylee asks about Addie all the time and even says, "Addie...home." Because I always tell her Addie is at home with her Mommy and Daddy. Then, I found out that Addie does the same thing, is that true B.F.F.'s or what?!
Here they are chit-chatting over breakfast.

Making some turkey art

Enjoying a snack at play group over at my sister's house

I brought down the grocery cart for Rylee to play with since Addie was playing with her stroller and ever since I brought it down it is all she has been playing with. She walks around putting things inside and says, "shopping." I'm surprised she hasn't said Target yet ;)

Brad extended the fence on the side of the house since they have started building more houses on our street. Rylee enjoyed being his little helper and loved playing with all of his fun tools!
