Friends: Old and New

I finally had a chance to meet up with my friend and old roomie Rachelle! Kayla had fun playing with Owen, and Charley and Rylan got to meet for the first time! Kayla and Owen are 1 month apart and Charley and Rylan are 4 months apart. I wish we lived closer so our kids could grow up together like Shell and I did. Thanks for coming to see us, miss you!

I thought these next two pictures were funny. The first one is Rylan and Charley and Rylan is crying. The bottom one is when Kayla and Owen were babies and met for the first time. Kayla was crying in that picture too...lol

Rylan: 2 months old

Rylan had his 2 month check up and he now weighs 11 lbs 12 oz (37%) and was 24.5 inches long (97%). He smiles all the time and it is the cutest thing ever! He has also mastered the pouty face too which is also adorable. He ususally only gets up once a night which has been so nice! He's such a good little boy and we love him so much! Kayla still smothers him with kisses everyday and he doesn't seem to mind.

Love these two.

Rylan's 1st Trip to the Zoo

Florida

Scott and I recently just got back from Florida. We got to go because he won an award at work and was chosen to go on the yearly trip Wells Fargo sends their top performers on each year. The food was great and so was the entertainment. Each night they did something different. They had everything from a casino night, a room full of champagne, chocolates, and violins to a room with pop music and another room called Soul Train. On the last night we had a really nice sit down dinner. When we weren't attending the WF events we could just enjoy the sun and the beach! The weather was great and it was nice to relax. Nothing is more relaxing the listening to the ocean and enjoying the view.

The kids stayed with grandpa and grandma. They both did really good. Rylan was a good boy and Kayla had fun building a birdhouse with grandpa, going to the library and playing all day long. I was really sad to leave them, especially Rylan. I don't think we left Kayla overnight until she was about 17 months old, so it was hard to leave Rylan when he was still so little. I know he was in good hands though and G&G sure enjoyed it :-) Luckily we stayed really busy while in Florida so it went by fast. We both had a lot of much needed fun and relaxation but I was sure glad to get home to my babies!!!









A piece of heaven...a chocolate bar!!





The boardwalk at Hollywood Beach



Casino Night



We got to listen to Captain Sully Sullenberger talk about when he landed his plane in the Hudson river.





Country singer Mark Wills played for us at our farewell dinner on the last night in Florida.

Ear Piercing!

Last night we let Kayla get her ears pierced! We went to the mall to see the Easter Bunny and got side tracked and let her get her ears pierced too. We have been talking about getting her ears pierced since her 3rd birthday and just now finally did it. She wanted to get them done but I don't think she realized it was going to hurt a little. She did really good. She sat really still and then after they pierced them Kayla got teary eyed and wanted Mommy. She held strong though and never all out cried. She just said they hurt but she did so good! It wasn't long before she was just fine and she can't wait to show her friends at daycare. She loves her earing and shows us how they sparkle.






Almost ready.............









They are in!!!!!!!!!!!! That hurt!!!!!!! :-(






All better! What a big girl!!!!!!!!!!
