Squint Face

okay so this story is kinda sad, but also kinda entertaining. here we go.

most of you know, ryan has been off work now for two weeks due to a couple bulged/ruptured discs. unfortunately, he is in a terrible amount of pain. although he is pretty tough & manages it quite well, you can see the pain on his face. most everything hurts, and he often squints his face (in pain) each time he switches positions. okay, that's the sad part of the story. here goes the fun part!

rylee has picked up on his facial expressions and started squinting at us. it took us a while to realize what she was imitating, but now that we get it we can't help but burst into laughter every time she makes the face. our laughter makes it that much more enticing for her, so she is CONSTANTLY squinting at us laughing. ive been trying really hard to get a picture of her doing it and finally succeeded!!

happy valentine's day 2011!!






happy first birthday rylee girl!!

Rylee had a BLAST at her first birthday! She loved getting eating her birthday burger and cake, but let's be honest. What Rylee really LOVED about her birthday was getting to snuggle and cuddle and play with her closest friends and family.

The day was a bit of a whirlwind and looking back on the pictures, I hardly got any of Rylee hanging out with her family!!! Anyway, here are a few from that FUN day!

February 9, 2011

To say that we've been busy around here would probably be a bit of an understatement! Since the month of February began our calendar has been pretty full! And although I haven't been able to post updates as frequently as I like, I have still been snapping pictures of our little angel!

Here is a picture of Rylee the night before her first birthday. I wanted one last picture of her as a baby :)


And a few others...
