Appointment Update

Had a Dr's visit this last Friday. We actually spoke to the Dr about having a scheduled C-Section at 39 weeks!!! Wouldn't it be awesome to be pregnant for 39 weeks??? Blood pressure was perfect, babies growth from the ultra sound picture was perfect. So once again, another perfect pregnancy at this point!

First Haircut

The mullet and curls are gone!!!!

Ryland + Dry wall = Emergency Room

Ryland likes to play in the laundry room and unfortunately Tuesday night he had a left over piece of drywall fall over and bang him on the head and face and it cut his cheek open. It was not very wide but we were concerned with how deep it was. In the ER they decided to glue it up instead of stitch it up. It was almost comical at how relaxed he was and how upset we were. He did not cry as they poked his face to open his cut and he did not cry as they held his head and glued it back together. He is a champ...here are some pictures of his funny looking glue face :-)





This picture is proof that he does love to play in the laundry room and usually nothing very serious happens, he just gets stuck in some weird places!!!

Rylands Pictures

Ryland got his one-year pictures taken at the McCormick Railroad park. We are keeping most of them secret because they are Christmas gifts for our family so it would not be right to post them, then give them as gifts :-) But here is a sneak peak at a few....I couldnt help it because he is so darn cute!!!

oil changes

i HATE getting the oil changed in my car. you go in for a $30.00 service and leave paying double or triple that. i am always being told that everything 30,000 miles i need to have the transmission flushed and the steering fluid. then there is the engine flush which is recommended. have you checked your air filter? because i dont know ANYTHING about cars, they hold all the power because they have the know-how and i dont. i want to take good care of my car, i want it to last as long as possible. i hate going and having to pay so much money!

1st Birthday!!!

Yep, I know...Rylands first birthday was a little over a month ago, but I am just now getting around to getting some pictures up so you can see all the fun festivities. His actual birthday was spent at a Diamonback's game with the family. Then that weekend we had a baseball themed birthday party for him :-)

I'm Gonna Do It

So I made a mom's group on yahoo groups, since it is free. Now all I have to do is invite people since right now it is not private. So everyone who wrote me about being interested in joining the group please send me your email and I will send you an "invite" to the group. The way I am hoping it will work is that each month someone will be assigned the month and they will pick one free activity and one paying activity and schedule it on the group calendar. I think this will work because one of the the reasons I wanted to join a group instead of starting one is because I am at such a loss when it comes to activites to do with little kids so we will all get a taste of what is out there from all the other moms. I am thinking we will try to get it up and running in November, just in time for the crazy holidays!!!! I am really excited about this and thank you to everyone who has been patiently waiting to see what I finally decided about all of this. This has been hard to commit to but I think it is going to be so worth it.
